20 Accounts Of Trump Supporters Calling Us “Faggots” To Our Faces

From: Queerty

 An investigation has been launched into two LGBT flags being burned in Rochester, New York. A gay man was reportedly physically attacked in Santa Monica mere hours after Trump was elected president. And this could just be the tip of the iceberg.

On top of numerous reports of attacks on people of color in the aftermath of election night, gay men and lesbians are coming forward on Facebook and Twitter to share their own traumatic experiences in the last 48 hours.

If these accounts are to be believed, the future is looking pretty damn terrifying. The upside, if there is an upside, is now we know exactly what we’re up against.

Woke up to hear my great friend was physically attacked last night for being gay. "We have a new president faggot" he was told. I'm hurt. pic.twitter.com/bDJjHl2dyT
