Bubba Copeland shot himself in front of police on Friday, days after he begged 1819 News not to expose his private life.

    I don’t know why people on here are grandstanding and white knighting for this douche, when so many people who are hurt by the GOP actually need our sympathy and compassion.

    I have zero compassion or emotions for assholes that actively support hate organizations.

      I feel like I can do both severely criticize his actions while defending his sexuality. I can also be understanding about his wanting to write erotica or crossdress but not necessarily the way he went about it.

      I don’t have the patience for hateful bigots but there are aspects of this story that have historically been weaponized against us LGBT+ that need attention.

        Except you can’t. Compassion and help is a finite resource in this world, because we have a finite amount of time and resources to help people. Evey second you waste it on assholes, you’re wasting your time on earth.

          Except that I’m willing and able and I will. You don’t get to make decisions for me and I ask that you don’t try.

              Yes, it usually goes without saying.

      I’ll let you in on a little secret, people are fucking dumb and just want something to be outraged about.
