Up on CNN right now "FBI looking to see if [pulse shooting] may have been a hate crime". MAY have been? MAY HAVE BEEN? IT IS A HATE CRIME.
Here I am sitting at work surrounded by tvs playing CNN and live news updates on the Pulse Shooting and people are trying to tell me "oh but no one really cares if you're gay or whatever anymore", and "being gay isn't such a big deal", and I am trying my damnedest not to break down and cry. 50 people dead, 53 people wounded and you're going to say TO MY FACE that being ANYTHING other than straight in America isn't a big deal and that we shouldn't be afraid to just live and be who we are, that America doesn't actively have hate rhetoric spouted throughout the news aimed directly at the LGBT community. Just existing, and being happy, and daring to be open is a political statement for LGBT people. PERIOD. Every day that I am open with my sexuality is a risk, and I am open about my sexuality knowing that. And now there is a shooting of my community surrounding me at work and I am doing my hardest to still take calls and do my job and not break down crying at my desk because very few of my coworkers would even understand my grief over my community's loss at the actions of one homophobic shooter. It is no surprise that what is being dubbed "the worst mass shooting in us history" happened at a gay bar on Latino night, and the United States OWES IT to the LGBT community AND to the latinx community to work to make this better. To ACTUALLY work towards REAL inclusivity, and non-laughable gun registration, and to make this country SAFE for LGBT AND the latinx communities in this country. This should have never happened, and we need to work to make sure it NEVER happens again.
Warning rant below:
I love how I live in what’s marketed as a “loving and accepting community built on Christian principles” and yet when I join a community resources page on facebook I’m suddenly blinded by the posts of: “meeting tonight on why lgbtq equal rights threaten the core rights of Christianity!!!” and “Join us in protesting Planned Parenthood because they sell dead babies! This one lady was caught on tape saying she wanted to buy a ferrari with the money she’s earning!!! These animals!?!??!!!”
YOU ARE MIDDLE-AGED ADULTS. YOU CLEARLY KNOW HOW TO USE THE INTERNET. YOU HAVE BEEN FUCKING TAUGHT HOW TO FACT CHECK. GET YOUR SHIT STRAIGHT, DOUBLE CHECK YOUR “FACTS” AND PULL YOUR GODDAMN HEADS OUT OF YOUR ASSES AND QUIT MAKING THE WORLD A DANGEROUS PLACE FOR LGBTQ PEOPLE AND FOR WOMEN TO NOT HAVE RIGHTS TO THEIR OWN GODDAMN BODIES OR HEALTHCARE. JESUS CHRIST, GAWD.
Personal ramblings about my father below:
On one hand I really miss my dad and his support/presence and I want to see him again, but on the other hand I'm really worried about how seeing him again will go. It's not that he's a pastor that makes it a problem, it's because he's a pastor that has some non-actual-Christian views that makes quite a bit of a wall between us. The thing is though that while on some occasions he does actually give voice to our differences normally he'll just change the topic of discussion, or cut me off and make us drop it, or he'll go stone-quiet while I talk and get that "I don't want to be hearing about this because I don't like it" clench of his jaw.
1) He's not okay with me being Wiccan, and thinks that I need to be Christian again despite me having told him before that I'm okay with all religions and don't think that anyone's wrong but that Christianity is just not a religion that works for me even though I do agree that it has a lot of good ideals - but so do a lot of other religions. (I honestly do think that my dad is a good pastor, and normally I never hear him do sermons that put down other religions, sexualities, or ways of living. Mostly he focuses on understanding the cultural aspects of the Bible and its verses so that people can better understand the meaning behind it and he's good at that.)
2) He and my sister are the ONLY, and I do mean the ONLY, ones in both my nuclear and extended families that have a problem with me being pansexual. My sister is very vocal about this, but my dad sort of just casually misidentifies me on purpose, and has made a few statements about this before during phone calls and car trip discussions. (First date I ever went on with a very very nice young lady who honestly was probably the best person I have dated and on our weekly check-in call that night when I told him I went on a date with a girl he responded with, "but girls can't go on dates with each other". I hung up on him.)
3) We do NOT agree politically on like anything and every time I try to present him with evidence and facts he shuts me down and says that I don't actually know what I'm talking about and then refuses to listen to me for the rest of the discussion because he insists that "I don't really know what the world's like" and "what you're saying just *doesn't* work".
4) He is the reason that I've been out of college for two years and cannot go back until I hit 24 because he won't allow me access to his tax forms so I can complete the FAFSA regardless of the fact that he hasn't supported me since I got to college (except for upkeep on a phone plan while I was in college and initial help with my downpayment of my first apartment). Before anyone asks, yes, I have tried to file for independent student status and they won't grant it to me because the FAFSA people have deemed that I "do not have a qualifying extenuating circumstance to qualify as an independent student".
5) When I spoke with my cousin Jaime about a month or so ago she and I had a bit of a heart-to-heart and I found out that the reason she doesn't like my dad is because he told her when she was a kid that "none of the Williamsons [our side of the family] would ever love her because of her mother" who was my Uncle Scott's first wife, is now dead, and had some huge beef with my Uncle Scott that no one will talk about/tell me what happened. So I'm really really mad about him for that and I want to remind him that he owes my cousin a rather large goddamn apology because he's taking out his dislike for Scott's ex-wife on Jaime who had nothing to do with that and definitely does not deserve that kind of dislike.
6) As the icing on the cake the last time my dad and I got to talk in person there was actually a bombshell drop in the discussion where I was labelled as my dad's "prodigal daughter" to which I blew the fuck up and went off on him for treating me in that manner just because there were things about me that he didn't like that a) were not going to change, b) he needed to accept or just leave me alone, and c) that he was being an awful fucking Christian for behaving in the manner that he was at the time.
Now, I don't say all of this to make anyone hate my dad. I really do love him, and he's been there for me a LOT throughout the years. He's just... he has these prejudices that he a) won't explain why he feels that way despite the fact that it's opposite of everything he was taught growing up, and b) isn't working on compromising with me on my identity and that is incredibly frustrating. I mean I can still talk to my dad about what's going on in my life, and tell him how things are doing, and talk about family stuff, and he's smart/good enough to not try to push me into getting along with my sister but damnit if we don't have this wall between us that I HATE.
