Seeing that the BLM movement stopped a Gay Rights parade made me think. What are Gay Rights activist fighting for? Just less discrimination? They already can marry. I'm sure someone can inform me of some financial marriage rights they don't have? Or do they just wanna dance?

None of them are really "fighting" for anything. No group is really persecuted against instead of in their own insecure minds. They can all vote, have access to the same public education, and often times are given scholarships for belonging to specific groups (black, latino). BLM, LGBT, and Feminists are all just take turns grabbing attention.

What special treatment is left to fight for outside of all the other special treatment they have already been given? Bathrooms, schools, military, marriage, etc.

You would have to ask one of them what else they are still fighting for because no sane, heterosexual is going to be able to tell you that.

The only thing I can think of would be protection from firing and eviction because of one's orientation.

BLM and gay rights activists are about to spar because gay rights activists are seeing firsthand what BLM is really about: themselves, and only themselves.

They are mostly fighting against the religious freedom bills and bathroom bills.

Not really. They've gotten what they want and are pretty okay right now.

Thing is, they think trannies are kinda off too.

Saw this quote from a Jackson MS protestor the other day. I was surprised when I watched the video. I assumed she was a hipster but it was an old redneck lady. Sounds like she's all in for Hillary.
