GLAAD chief Sarah Kate Ellis tells GMA3 about the fear and aggravation felt in the LGBTQ community following the Colorado Springs mass shooting — and has strong words for those that have recently increased their anti-LGBTQ rhetoric.

November 21, 2022, 3:12 PMABC Newsthat has left 5 people dead and 25 people injured as of Monday afternoon, LGBTQ rights groups have said that there is an increased state of fear and panic.

SARAH KATE ELLIS: Sure. Motive aside, I think what we're seeing is a 12-year high in hate crimes, [a] 41% increase against the trans community alone. And I think that we're seeing three things drive this. One are anti-LGBTQ politicians who have proposed over 300 anti-LGBTQ policies this year or bills this year for no good reason, answering and solving no problem that exists.

People hold a vigil at a makeshift memorial near the Club Q nightclub, Nov. 20, 2022, in Colorado Springs, Colorado.And then thirdly…is the inaction by government on gun safety reform. Where are we on that and on social media platform accountability? So those three things have driven an environment that makes the LGBTQ community completely unsafe.

GMA3 A lot of what politicians said was not Anti-LGTBQ” as she claims. Here’s what happens. The Left & the media March out some new push, agenda, proposal, etc. We conservatives don’t like OR want a thimble full of that shit, & push back. Then they label U as “intolerant” or “hate.”

GMA3 The LGBTQ community keeps asking to separate the LGB from the T and Q. I follow a group called gays against grooming and they are sick of their community being used to groom children. They think it's the left using them that's causing this. I agree

GMA3 Notice the endless answer couched in leftist terms: gun safety reform. Makes it sound as reasonable as a fishing license! It’s just safety, & we are just “reforming it.” The reality IS that there R already 20,000 gun laws on the books, & that’s just the state laws— not federal.

GMA3 How about media companies? Like ABC, conTINually pushing this transgender shit an American public that’s flabbergasted as 2?WHY that issue needs constant publicity. Why ARE you pushing this endless pile of shit us, ABC? This is YOUR obsession. The American public doesn’t care

GMA3 She is so right. Polotician have used the alphabet people for their own political gain just like Black Lives Matter used black suffrage for their own financial gain.

GMA3 Nope! Failure of Blue State law enforcement.

GMA3 YOU!!! laurenboebert RepMTG

GMA3 ABC.. we watched your reporting on the Colorado shooting. Interesting, you did not show the killer's pic! WHY? Last week you showed the UVA shooter’s pic. You showed the Colorado killer from behind. Focusing on the individuals who stopped the killer!! Fairness

GMA3 Stop using them as their “football”, huh? Then stop carrying that damn thing down the field, you hypocrites.

GMA3

sarahkateellis GMA3 For the love of God - if you can't embrace these folks, then at least have the decency to leave them alone.

GMA3 Why do dems lump groomer hate with LGB?

GMA3 Marxist tactic. They equate criticism (which is fine) to violence (which is not)

GMA3 Stop all of this nonsense. It's dialectical materialism. That means scientific socialism. It's manufactured conflict and agreed upon deception.

GMA3 Any strong words for this or no🤔 Shooting suspect Christopher Darnell Jones Jr. is a former UVA football player: Police

GMA3 And LGBTQ should stop grooming children.

Gma3 I believe in two things. 1 anyone who commits violence against another human needs to be punished to the fullest extent of the law 2 Leave the kids alone. They are not your political pawns

Gma3

Gma3 Why are you ignoring Amendment 2 to the Colorado Constitution in 1992?

Gma3 The problem is that we've politicized every facet of our lives. Jobs, hobbies, cars, books, TV shows, movies, schools...everything has been assigned a left or right label and it's destroying society.

Gma3 Which anti-LGBTQ rhetoric? The 'stop transing kids behind their parents' backs' rhetoric or the 'biology is real' rhetoric?

Gma3 Who
