Yes, the gay and trans 'panic' defense is still legal in a majority of states

[Behind the Aegis]

8. Let me be honest...

...well, not here, but suffice to say, it is not really that surprising a topic such as this is overlooked. Also, the day I posted this there was something else dominating that day (can't remember off the top of my head), so that plays into it sometimes too. For me, it is about getting this info out there, especially given the number of str8 and, yes, even gay people, who don't seem to realize that GLBT people are not full citizens in this country in the way many other minorities are not either. Then, of course, there is now Monkeypox, and according to some, we, homos, should just stop being so selfish and lay off the fucking til this passes. There are those, including among the left, who really aren't the allies they think they are.
