The Left is open-minded, but only if you agree

A number of gay men who have decided to throw their support behind Trump told NBC OUT it has not been an easy road. Juan Hernandez, a gay and Latino member of the Log Cabin Republicans, said his support led to physical violence by anti-Trump protesters at a rally in San Jose. Images of the attack and his bloodied clothes went viral. 

"This is politics. Debate is OK," Hernandez said. "When you start getting violent and throwing out derogatory terms, that's not OK."

This is from NBC News, and should not come as a surprise to anyone who has followed politics at any time over the past two decades or longer. The Left, for all their self-proclaimed open-mindedness, is actually an ideological prison.

If you disagree with them while being black, expect everything short of a lynch mob to be attacking you. Just ask Clarence Thomas what has happened to him since he was first nominated for the Supreme Court. (Here is the latest example.)

And the Left only supports gays when they agree. Consider this man's story:

Eric, a 25-year-old gay Marine Corps veteran, was a Trump supporter before the Orlando shooting, but he said the attack - and the dangers he believes "radical Islam" poses to the gay community - has reinforced his support.

"Donald Trump has taken charge," he said." I'm gonna go for his stance on immigration and rebuilding the military."

But while Eric is a vocal Trump supporter, he declined to provide his last name due to fear of violence or "doxxing," the malicious publication of a private citizen's personal information online.

"When you put your name out on a national level as supporting someone who attracts that much vitriol and disgust, you're putting yourself up for doxxing ... Especially for someone like me who's considered a 'traitor,'" added Eric, who is a member of LGBTrump, an online network for LGBTQ people who support the GOP presidential hopeful.

So will gay Republicans be wearing Trump 2016 t-shirts and "Make America Great Again" hats at LGBTQ Pride events this year? Eric said it's unlikely.

"It's easy to come out of the closet," he said. "It's dangerous to come out as a Trump supporter."

Dare I even mention the Left and Global Warming? How is it "open-minded" to claim the "science is settled", when it isn't? They still haven't explained away the sun's impact on climate change, especially considering the FACT there would be no global warmth at all without the sun. Another fact is they have shut down all debate on the topic.

This is why I don't take seriously their claims about "Republican obstructionism". Considering how Democrats refuse to debate their ideas, there is nothing more obstructionist than that.
