Trump and people's rights- Just a topic i want to bring up here...
"FADA was a bill in Congress that, if enacted, would offer legal protections for gay marriage opponents, preventing for example lawsuits against business owners who refuse to service same-sex weddings for religious reasons.
By December 2015, six Republican presidential candidates had agreed to the pledge to sign it within their first 100 days in office. While Trump was not one of them, according to the coalition, he did express an overall support for FADA."
"Despite the possible pro-LGBT influence within the White House, others have noted that Trump's cabinet picks are overwhelmingly opposed to the LGBT movement.
In late November, New York Magazine ran a column noting that "of all his cabinet and cabinet-level picks so far, not one has a history of standing up for LGBT rights."
I'd just like to ask your guys' opinion on this? Personally, i think this, along with Trump's removal of the LGBT page from whitehouse.org/lgbt is quite shocking.

The White House page looks so...unprofessional..isn't that a fake website? I think it's: https://www.whitehouse.gov/#page
About the LGBT rights issue, I would expect Trump to be against it. Even though I don't support gay marriage, I think people's rights should be protected nonetheless. Going against it would be a violation against human rights.
I don't think people should force a business/organization to host a same-sex marriage if they believe it goes against their morals. I think we should respect each other, despite opposing differences and not start conflict.

The thing is Trump's views on so many topics kept on changing so it was really confusing on what his stance was on certain topics. People kept on saying how he was controversial. Although in my opinion even though he didn't seem to sign it, I still think he's an awful person that would be okay about totally not letting the LGBT community have their rights. It's disgusting and it makes me cry and get so mad as even knowing people in that community, especially one being my boyfriend, just I can't even anymore. People thought he was going to be all talk, but no, he is doing the stuff that he said he would. Maybe he is fine with it, but with his administration of being opposed to it, I think based on that it would favor more towards no rights for them.

I don't appreciate the way he's been running things already, especially on this topic. I understand that some people are against the LGBT community, sometimes because of religion, and I respect that. But Trump and his supporters don't care that their actions ruin people's lives and put emotional turmoil on them. It's obvious by all the riots his actions have damaged the country. Being against something doesn't mean you have to hate it, so I don't understand why it's so hard to just accept it and give them their rights. They are humans, just like us, and their rights shouldn't have to be a privilege.
