Considering that her own father believes his own daughter doesn’t deserve and is not entitled to basic human rights, it’s extremely fortunate that her suicide attempt wasn’t successful. The stress of having a father who clearly despises her for what she is must be a nightmare that no fourteen year old girl should have to deal with. If she was despondent enough to stab herself repeatedly, she was probably despondent enough to hang herself in a closet where no one would find her until it was too late. It’s a wonder that didn’t happen.

If that was your original attempt I apologize. Mia culpa and I agree with your revised statement 100%. Hopefully it was not too much trouble to see where my misunderstanding came from, and by your clarification it was.
Awty- I aware of the difference. And even if it were a should it still wouldn’t break the letter of the rules, hence my general bitching.
Anywho, anyone else wishing trump went is learning from what’s happening in Peru? Wish it could have happened here?

You misunderstand me. One of his daughters came out as bi last year. If that was the girl that cut herself, then the stress of growing up with a father who has constantly spoken out against LGBTQ rights must have been a nightmare.
I have nothing but compassion for the girl and I hope she gets the help she needs.
I patiently await your apology.

I hope you're very patient.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

I can make my fingers do the walking (now THERE is a boomer reference) and give my wife a really nice orgasm, and I know how to tell when it happens.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Innit funny how all the conservatives bitching about the Brittney Griner prisoner swap never said WORD ONE when Trump released 5000 Taliban fighters?
