I am not arguing with you. I am helping you understand something.
He is running as an R, because he is smart enough to know he can only win as an R.
Please stop acting like you don't get this.

The civil war in Syria, whose Alawite regime Saudi Arabia's Sunny monarchy has long plotted against, and the prospect of a war with Shiite Iran over its reported drive to acquire nuclear weapons, preoccupy Riyadh while, Abdallah, Canute-like, strives to keep the democratic wave from breaking on its shores.

So, let me see if the propaganda machine has given me ISIS's list of their targets..........
1. Muslims who aren't muslim enough.
2. All Christians.
3. All Gays.
4. Jordanian pilots.
5. Other ISIS's who attempt to leave ISIS.
6. All US military personnel, probably most US citizens too (can't confirm that bit though).
7. Drawers of cartoons of Mohammed as well as those that condone said drawers and their drawings.
Anyone see anything glaringly missing from that list, or is it just me that see's ISIS conveniently ignoring certain groups whom I would have thought would be almost at the top of their list of targets?

As a gay woman, no I don't think it's over board
I think people need to see this, I think it needs to be made public so people can see what is happening and not bury their heads in the sand.
Some thing are hard to watch. But evil needs to be exposed for what it is
Then you should probably stop paying taxes. If you live in any western nation you unknowingly contributed to ISIS.
And I do not think that being gay would give anyone some extra compation towards cruelty against life.
All lives matter.
This isn't about your disdain for the west. Please stay on topic
All lives matter.
But being gay puts me in the position to know that could be me or my significant other they are throwing off a building.
In the same way that a gay person would know about gay persecution or struggles , that a straight person would not
That doesn't mean they can't see it for the evil that it is
Honestly if you can't parse that connection I don't know what to tell you
