Are you kidding me!? “He had to be part of the anti-LGBTQ party because of where he lived”. Fuck out of here with that nonsense. I deleted my longer comment, let me sum it to for you:
He didn’t have to live in Alabama
He didn’t have to be part of the anti-LGBTQ+ (or any) party
He didn’t have have to run for political office
He didn’t have to engage in crossdressing
If any of those conflict with each other, well; life is about choices. Anything less is cowardice.
Get a grip. I asked for a source that the person, who you all are celebrating the suicide of, was actually a terrible person or partook in the persecution of others.
That was the assertion that I was responding to, and none of that was mentioned in any source in this thread besides wild assumptions by people simply for being in the republican party in a small town.
Meh sometimes people just hate someone for not understanding them. And that’s enough. You don’t always need to pretend to have a good reason for hating someone, you just decide and then one day someone asks you why, like asking about babies crying in Africa, people often prefer not to have their beliefs challenged or broken to pieces by any kind of paradigm shift
None of those words backs up your assertion, which was that there was “no plausible alternative” to being a GOP politician in Alabama. You can’t defend it because it’s complete nonsense.
Also, I didn’t celebrate his death, and I haven’t seen anyone else do so either…
In most rural areas of the South, it’s a racial divide between which are Republican or Democrat. Where I’m from, a white person being a Democrat would be, and are, actively threatened and hurt if they voice their opinion (by white Republicans).
You got a source for that, besides simply being a member of the GOP in s location where there is no plausible alternative?
There are plenty of Democrats in Alabama. He didn’t have to run for public office.

He stood at the pulpit that makes him party to the persecution of others.

If you choose to part of an organization dedicated to dominance at other’s expense you’re not a good person.
He was not forced to be a GOP.
He would be if he wanted to become a mayor
Not really local level most people do care. My area is blue and my ward has a GOP council member. I did vote for him.
You know that democrats do live in Alabama, right?
You got a source for ur bullshit? No alternative?? Lmfao ok yeah right.
Source: rural Alabama and a basic understanding of political party distribution in the US
Yeah a 3rd grade understanding. Like there are no Dems in the south.
