13444414, I've listened. I have a coworker who transitioned over some years

right in front of everyone's eyes.

I call my coworker by her name. I've even corrected a coworker who would slight her by calling her the name her parents gave her, the name she gave us before she transitioned. You see how I'm using her proper pronouns here?

I still don't agree with her lifestyle. I can listen all day. Y'all think if you talk folk to death they'll eventually agree with how you live? That's crazy. Live your life. Stop looking for others to accept you. They done passed laws to protect this community, meanwhile anti-lynching bill DOA y'all don't listen.

Should someone refuse services? murder? hold back ones career? generally discriminate? Nah. that's WRONG. Take it to court!

I don't go around asking racist to love me and show them how wonderful I am and understand my hurt.

What I do ask is they not discriminate, murder and put in place laws that oppress me.

Yall didnt listen to Dave.
