What's Always Been Will Be

Lies are the new truth, but let's stay cool
Dignity and common sense are so old school
Pride month is here, calmness and discretion is key                                                          
Respect one another's point of view including LGBT

I wonder: Can't dignity and common sense work hand in hand with LGBTQ+? And if not, why not? To me, every human being -- indeed every creature of the Creator -- is entitled to dignity and common sense, until and unless he/she/they/it is coming directly for your throat. Once slain, however, then dignity and common sense again. Thanks for this Thought-provoker for me, Robert.

Yes Robert we must respect others as how we would want to be respected. Everyone needs respect and love. Your point is well taken my friend... Thanks you for sharing and reminding us how important respect is for all of humanity..

I'm glad to see that I'm not alone in wanting what's right for the LGBT and other groups that are different for being born who they are. Thank you for posting! Yay

In my opinion, people labelled LGBT ( and those that label themselves that way) have points of view exactly the same as people labelled straight ( or label themselves straight) its only what they do with their "little bits" that is different. Sad that dignity, common sense, truth, common decency and kindness are disappearing into the background. Children learn by example.

It seems our discourse and actions are becoming coarser and ruder. And the worst thing is that children are picking up by example. Thank you for you visit and please feel free to follow me at your leisure! Robert
