Do they see it as "they're LGBTQ, therefore they must be a terrible person?" If you knew the person before they came out, nothing about how you see them has  changed! Yes, they might be using diffrent pronouns,  but they're still your friend! I just do not get homophobia and transphobia.

I know a lot of people who are trans, and it scares me to think that people dislike people who are LGBTQ to the point of violence - especially against people who are trans.

People should be allowed to love who they love and be who they are without fear. Nobody should judge someone for having crushes on people who are the same gender. Nobody should hate and exclude someone because they identify as a different gender from what they were born with. No one should have to live in fear every single day because they are who they are.

Sorry for the rant - I have a lot to say about hate against the LGBTQ community and fear of people who are LGBTQ. (don't apologize!) Well said.
