Perfect example of "When you're accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression."
Well said.
Your statement in “quotations” really should be a billboard in that town.
Hit the nail on the head there.
Privilege is one thing, but too many are accustomed to bigotry...
When you're accustomed to bigotry, equality feels like assault and persecution?
*Shudders*
Beautifully put
I live in Arkansas. This lady is definitely one in a million. Especially here. Protect this woman.
I looked to find out more about her. Sadly, she died less than a year after the interview
@@shauntheobald8546 That is so sad. She was so vibrant.
Can confirm as a fellow Arkansan, though NWA where I live is slowly getting more and more liberal I guess
@@TOGProfessor You have internet up in dem der hills and down in dos hollers?
@@Primalxbeast it's the home of Walmart. Lol Bentonville has more money than wherever you live dude.
Who else had a preconceived opinion of what that older woman was going to say, and then was so happy to have misjudged her so badly?
🥰Me.
😎 I also expected that strangely-coiffed man with the moustache in the immaculate suit with the effeminate mannerisms to be gayer than me, and I don't think I was wrong. 🤩
@@ixlnxs Well he was a bit sweaty!😉
@@philiplacey5430 and the suit was very much not immaculate
Pleasantly surprised
She honestly seems like a lovely person to have a Sunday brunch with
The irony is that this pastor doesn’t realize that the overwhelming support for the city ordinance indicates that it is highly likely that many of his own congregation voted for it.
By the presence of people in the stands I presume his congregation is not the most abundant.
I doubt it. These are the bible thumping evangelical types. It's an interesting city and beautiful. Also a favorite stay for biker's. You'll see many hotels advertising they "welcome bikers". It's eclectic for sure.
@@Braun30 The Christ of the Ozarks is a big tourist attraction for Christians or anyone that wants a close up view. It's on several acres and has other stuff and stores. I'm sure his congregation is full. They have that outdoor Passion Play twice a week in the warmer seasons. Eureka Springs is quite unique. I used to tell people to not confuse it with the State of Arkansas.
Maybe not his congregation, but a large number of Christians in the city for sure
I love that old lady, “so ice cream isn’t gender neutral?”
I died when she asked that
That was priceless. LOL
Yes!🤣😅😂
She's a gem!❤

"Conservative Christain people are terribly hung up on bathrooms." That woman is awesome.
Probably worried someone might flush some classified papers. Trying to flush 11 or 13 times.
That woman is probably Christian and Conservative herself. She just isn't nuts.
And hits the nail on the head, too.
I'm still waiting for that 3rd bathroom Obama promised.

I could watch it a million times. It is perfection.

The Daily Show has been amazing at this skill since the Jon Stewart days! It's like watching the Jedi mind trick being done over and over and it never gets old. Jordan Klepper at the Trump rallies was my favorite sit-com during the 2016 and 2020 election seasons.
Someone should find a giant inflatable rainbow and stretch it out across the outstretched hands of the giant statue.
We need more people like that woman representing the city in public office.

Big props to that lady for standing up for others...She's a real one
She was awesome. I looked her up and she passed away. This was from 2015.
Without getting hostile what does real one even mean
@@bonerthebarbarian7872 in this case, that she’s a genuine, open-minded & kind human being.
Agreed. Protect her at all costs!
@@YoliGSXR that's so sad she was such a sweet heart in the video.
"Ice cream is not... gender neutral?" She's just trying to understand and it's so sweet.
She understood. She was playing along.
Conservatives would lose their minds if they knew that things in languages such as Spanish are labeled as masculine, feminine, or neutral 🤣
This is actually the 100% correct response to what Jordan was saying though. Ice cream is gender neutral which means it can’t possibly be homosexual or heterosexual. That was a perfect response by her whether she was playing along or not 🤗
Lol
I love her! ❤️
I must admit that as a trans woman there is something I do in the women's bathroom other than going number 1 or 2. I also wash my hands when I'm done because I'm not a monster.

As a straight woman, I've used men's bathrooms when I couldn't wait in line to use the woman's. When ya gotta go ya gotta go.
Jordan Klepper is my comedic hero; he is able to hold his composure while getting people to point out their own hilarious hypocrisy! Chef's kiss
Daily show has always found great people for this. Sam bee, john oliver, Stephen colbert and steve carell man they were all great. Mo rocca.
He's like the Chris Hanson of bigots.
Absolutely
@@danielgehring7437 so true. Hansen just Jedi mind tricked everyone into doing what he told them. He'd be like have a seat and they'd be like "I don't want to sit down" while they were sitting down lol
It is a gift, Keppler!
Man she giving off Epic Betty White vibes...
Protect that lady at all costs!!
America needs more leaders like her
Sadly she died, in 2016. TDS should have added something about that in the segment, like a few words written in the screen at the end, since they're reposting it.
@@grumbles that's dampening the joy, though. I bet they considered, then decided against it.
@@Weirdkauz True. Maybe just in the description of the video then? I thought it was a new video until I looked her up because I wanted to tell her how awesome she is.
@@grumbles I checked the description, it really IS a new video! And nothing of her passing anywhere... they should have put a memoriam somewhere, I totally agree.
I also like to tell ppl how awesome they are, btw., much better strategy than trolling or even reasonable complaining. Makes for a nicer world, too
People who support LGBTQ: Angels from above
People slightly uncomfortable with the idea: Apparently demons.
I mean comeo n. He has freedom of speech. He should be allowed to make his point. Is it justified to bash on someone because their opinion doesn't align with yours?
She isn't the grandma America deserves, but she sure is what we need
Yes
The grandma we deserved was Betty White. So now she with Jesus I guess
Compare Joyce Zeller to Kim Davis, the Kentucky clerk who refused to issue marriage licenses... Zeller is the type of small town American we need to be celebrating!
When I saw her name was Joyce I was like no please don't let this auntie be homophobic 🥺 but she was normal 😁
But she didn't understand sarcasm
To these types of people, “freedom of religion” means “freedom to discriminate”!
And freedom to deny others their freedom.
@@Highley1958 speaking facts
And if so, I GENUINELY wanna know why you guys don't accept people who don't support you?
You don’t accept us, so why is it wrong for us to not accept you ?
@@nxbxxha_1764 "I think transgenderism should be banned and women shouldn't vote"
"Why don't transgenders and women accept me?"
This man is a genius. Also, the fact that the pretty lady comes from an older generation than the guy in question, it's evident it's not a generational thing, it's purely about acceptance and adaptability.
@D
Thank you for your thoughtful words about the Councilwoman and age! In fact some of us most liberal and thoughtful ladies came from the 70's. It's so great that she made this impact on all you younger people. She, and Jordan and you D make me proud! 🙂
maybe you need a slightly larger, less bias, sample to make that assertion :)
@@lumagethebest If they were trying to argue there's no correlation between age and homophobia I would agree with you, but I think their point is more that it isn't age that makes people homophobic but a refusal to adapt. Sample size doesn't really have anything to do with it.
@@lumagethebest why? They’re not saying that only people from a certain age group can be homophobic, they’re saying that age isn’t an acceptable excuse for bigotry and saying “they’re just from a different time” is a cop out.
@@brandonwalker379 who's saying that? I'm just pointing out that you can't support or disprove the relationship between bigotry and age with a one person sample
Freedom of religion means "I can't do that, that's against my religion." Not "You can't do that, that's against my religion."
Excellent point!
You would think
THIS!
AMEN!!!
Freedom of religion means I shouldn't have to accept or serve you if it goes against my religion and you can't shout in my face for that.
When you're accustomed to privilege equality feels like oppression.

Best quote of the day sir .

Jordan has mastered the art of getting people to display irony without having any idea they are doing so LOL
“Irony” seems too kind a description for this nimnull with a hymnal-more like “hypocrisy”.
@@PC-kd7dj "Mimnull with a hymnal" hahahaha love it.
Lol yes I love that about him
Low key seems like the people he interviews are actors like its that level of putting words in their mouth
LOW IQs of the people he interviews helps a lot
Jordan Klepper is hilarious, but Joyce Zeller’s reactions are priceless! 😂 Literally stole the show and made me laugh so hard I cried. We need more people like Joyce in government. What an absolute gem.
shame she passed away RIP
That elderly lady seemed like a decent human being. We could use more of those in positions of public service.
She really was. She was family and she was not afraid to call me out when i was being an idiot.
That lady is a national treasure! She is like the kind but strong and protective grandma that we all know or had!
The big Christ statue in the end is such an irony. This show is genius.
That statue is a whole thing where I'm from. We travel hours just to look at it.
@@Person1865 man that’s lame
Totally. I love how this team gets their points across
@@cavemanlawyer5608 your childhood probably wasn't perfect either.
But what Bible thumper can tell the world what’s really happening right now with purgatory politics and what changes are happening in afterlife right now???
Am I the only one who thinks this city council lady is absolutely adorable? We need more strong, smart, old-ladies in politics.
Nope
Not alone at all. I get the feeling she would be a riot to talk to, as my grandmother would say.
YES America... yes, yes, yes
Yes, you’re the only one.
Most women usually feel insulted when referred to as old.
I’ve lived in Eureka Springs for over thirty years. Always been proud of the inclusiveness of my town. Seems to me this acceptance is way more in line with the “love one another as I have loved you” idea of Christianity than the judgmental hypocrisy of that preacher.
Eureka is a beautiful town. I graduated from Berryville.
In my experience tht is pretty much the Hypocrisy of the whole thing.
I hung out in Eureka as a teenager back in the 90s for the live music scene, and it was actually the go to place for inclusiveness then. He is disappointing..
Eureka Springs is Awesome
"I doubt there will ever be a time when there is not discrimination", Randall says, with a big smile on his face.
Well? We can root them out.
I love this council woman. She a BAMF like Betty White
EXACTLY what i was thinking
🗣️ Facts!
Hopefully they're up in heaven together having a ball
She has the same voice
How do we know she , he , they , who , what , am , are , a women. ?
"Not allowing me to discriminate is discrimination!11!1!11!"
Seriously! You can't make that up!!😂😂🤣
They’re basically being racist by not being racists
Perfectly said
Classic 😂
"For some reason, conservative religious people are terribly hung up about bathrooms"
She is adorably fantastic.
Because the other side is hung up on it even more. If they weren't, there wouldn't have been this issue to begin with
@@injamulazad6379 One side says let people use the bathroom that matches who they are and the other wants genital inspection and ID passports to us the restroom. Which one of those is harder to implement and more insane?
Conservative religious people are known for putting hidden cameras in public bathrooms. They just want see what is going on. The thing is I don't know why they pull their pants down when they are watching.
@@injamulazad6379 One side is fighting to oppress, the other is fighting for equality. I know EXACTLY which side YOU are on - Let's go fascist!
@@injamulazad6379 the other two took care of you, but just here to third on that.
I love that woman. She is desperately needed in Texas. Perhaps someone who is obviously without an agenda, who exemplifies actual Christian behaviors of tolerance and kindness, could have a positive influence here.
Missouri a wannabe Texas could use her also.
AND who steadfastly obeys separation of church and state and doesn’t even entertain a conversation about BS “religious discrimination” . I mean the tolerance and kindness is there but ultimately she like a Supreme Court justice like “legally we can’t cater our laws to what this guy says is Christian values”
This man just kept walking right into the joke. Pure gold.
No kidding
I mean.. the dude is pretty literally the punchline to a cliche joke himself (I'm sure I don't need to point it out lol)
You can't refer to anything as 'gold' anymore because that's precious metalist.
yeah stop being gold medalist. wait that didn't come out right
People should take more of a stance like that pastor. The last thing we need is some LGBTQ activist teacher telling our 5-year-old that it's OK to be transgender at that age.
LGBTQ people can live the way they want. That's OK. Just stop the indoctrination and this so-called imaginary movement to make the world gender neutral.
People don't talk against these matters because of the FEAR of being called certain things. Their voice is taken away. That should not stop you from protecting your family from people who go after your kids.
This lady along with Jordan is pure brilliance. Lol. She’s fantastic!
Agreed! Loved her
she's SO funny, the jokes write themselves
She sadly passed away in 2016 :( RIP Queen!
This lady looks seriously concerned for Jordan’s well being. 😂 love her
She is so awesome 🥹🤗
RIP Joyce Zeller: she died a year after this. But she'll always be remembered as a smart, reasonable person who knew that ice cream could be enjoyed by all genders and orientations.
Once again, Jordan lets the interviewee highlight their own stupidity, and the "almost feels like it's looming over you", comedic gold!
"I don't know why, but religious conservatives are terribly obsessed with bathrooms" I love that quote
My house only has one restroom for guests. I have yet to hear a complaint.
@@edwardmitchell6581 my house also has non-gendered bathrooms
And i gotta say
🧍🏼♀️ i need to get my own bathroom
Not gendered, just not for anyone but me
It's hilarious and the funniest part is that they are PUBLIC BATHROOMS, where you don't even have an expectation about privacy and there's no laws that say men can't enter women's rooms or vice versa, so they truly just want something else to WHINE about other than abortion and their delusional sky Fairy's existence or lack thereof...
@@ColonPal The line to the men's room are generally much shorter than for women. I remember being at places where women used the men's room
when the line for the ladies room was too long.
@@EMCain-rz6kv That's right. As a courtesy in those situations, I would always allow women to use the men's while I stayed watch outside. This is why the 'transgender bathroom' nonsense is such a NON-issue. Women who are 'uncomfortable' sharing the PUBLIC bathroom with ANYONE who needs to use it regardless of gender, don't need a new law, they need a therapist to treat their glowing transphobia and teach them how to behave like an adult in public. Transgender women keep biological women safe, so they don't have to worry about men rapists or pedophiles. Transgender women serve this duty out of the kindness of their hearts and biological women should be THANKFUL! And treat their irrational fears with therapy or education.

I live in Eureka Springs, the majority of our citizens are caring, accepting people. Please don't think we're all nuts. Maybe artsty-fartsy but not nuts!
That‘s ok, otherwise the ordinance wouldn‘t have passed, don‘t worry, I think we get who the problem is…
I'm just some rando from NZ so had never heard of Eureka Springs before but it looks very pretty in this clip so I might have to add it to my bucket list now :)
It actually looks like a cool little town! I mean, you have all those LGBT shops! 😂
I would love to live in Eureka Springs.
What makes you think your town came across as nuts??? It was the pastor that came across as completely off his rocker. That woman made your town as a very welcoming town to all people. You should be proud.
It’s a historical fact that religious entities always pull the “discriminated” card when they want to, in fact, be allowed to discriminate against the LGBTQ community.
Hey! I'm being discriminated against by the LGBTQs because my right to discriminate against *them* is being infringed upon!
What goes around comes around
Doin an act is one thing ...and then propagating that act like it's a normal phenomenon is another thing....
#leaveourchildrenalone
@@jeremysmith9694 one group is actually being discriminated against, one isn't. Religious folks don't suddenly suffer when lgbt folks get their rights dude.
Christians are the most discriminated against group in a country that guarantees FREEDOM OF RELIGION thanks to the LGBT pushing their radical agenda. Sad to see.
I love the way Jordan calls out their hypocrisy. Classic.
And most of them haven't a clue...
In what way? You don't make sense.
I'm so tired of people thinking that the expansion of rights for someone else means that they, somehow, have fewer rights.
Amen!
Ah, but remember, being forced to treat others as human beings with the same rights as your own means you can't discriminate against them!
And as we all know, not being able to discriminate is the biggest form of discrimination.
It's not pie...
Tthey're losing their rights to bully a vulnerable minority without consequence. Their lives are meaningless without this capacity. Think of how sad they are.
And that right there is called privilege
As a trans person myself hearing the "what are they doing in the bathroom?"
"Using the bathroom"
"Then what do they do?"
"I don't know, but it's a problem"
This perfectly describes their fear mongering for creating a solution to a problem that doesn't exist
I know what trans people are doing in the bathroom after using it.
Washing their hands, obviously.
No one ever follows thru with the screwball notion that "you must use the bathroom associated to your gender at birth". Just imagine the reality of a group of butch, muscular, manly F2M trans men following that rule. Actually I'd LOVE to witness the outrage that would ensue. Wish Jordan would get THAT group together
"for some reason, conservative religious people are terrible hung up on bathrooms"
@@Midnight-Starfish washing hands?? Ridiculous. And blasphemy!!!
Are you comfortable sharing a public restroom with a man?

Indeed
yes! Honestly when the corespondents for Trevor do comedy interviews it feels like the interviewees are filmed answering mundane questions first and then they insert the footage of the comedic questions in post. It's just so disconnected but here it doesn't feel that way. I just hope she understood his ironic tone and that he wasn't actually behind what he was asking. Poor thing looked so confused and disgusted 🤨
Agree
The Daily Show should hire that lady as a full-time correspondent.
Yassss!!!
I totally agree! They def need to bring her back!
"You really want me to ask them that?", She shrugs her shoulders, "well ok as long as you keep paying me..."

That image is one of the reasons I love Jordan Klepper. These idiots are comically not self aware.

Remove the Charity status of American churches and fund Education. End this ignorance, horror, and gullibility.
I don’t think we should outright remove it-make them demonstrate their charity status like we make every other charitable organization do to get their tax exemption. The ones that actually provide charitable services should be entitled to tax exemption just like any non-religious organization. Just don’t give them an automatic free pass.
I support this message.
@Mr. chicano
The automatic charitable status given to religious organizations is why they’re tax exempt. I say make them pay taxes if and only if they wouldn’t otherwise qualify for a tax exemption-there’s no reason to disincentivize charitable works just because it’s coming from a church/temple/mosque/etc…they just shouldn’t get that automatically as a privilege. You want tax exemption…earn it.

So much art, history and small mom and pop shops to visit. Its a great time if you aren’t in the mindset of the preacher man.
Miss preacher man to be exact!
Thank you for the recommendation!
As someone who lived in Eureka Springs I can say that this is so true. It is so chill and then people like him are just trying to cause drama
Daily Show, I don't know how much you pay Jordan Klepper and his crew for their services, but it's probably not enough. He and whatever team he has working with him are all brilliant.
I'm more than ready for them to just get rid of Trevor Noah and give the whole show to Klepper. Its been literally months since I've watched anything Noah has put out and I don't know how long it's been since I've actually enjoyed a Noah segment. Klepper is must watch 100% hit every time though. He's been carrying the daily show HARD for well over a year.
@@amarvelouscalm lol 😆😂🤣. This segment is old lol 😆😂 and also trevor noah is the goat 🐐 and if u don't watch his show coz trevor noah is the show owner now u can leave peacefully his own channel out and Don't watch it .trevor noah literally can sack jordan if he wants but he keeps coz it is important to have people who go outside and cover important things sometimes like roy wood jr does or micheal Costa lol .if u hate trevor noah like that u can leave the daily show lol and u are white I guess 🤷 so it doesn't surprise me lol 😆
right? I don't know how he does it. I don't think I could maintain my cool like he does.
I just hope that the nice lady was informed of the sarcasm after the interview. We need more people like her!
I was thinking the same thing!
She got the sarcasm. She was with it. I'm surprised you didn't see that she was going along with it.
this piece is actually really old, she knew the entire time he was a comedian
Jordan has such a unique way of talking to morons... gets me every single time 😂😂
I like that he doesn't insult them. He simply lets them talk so we can laugh. No further insults needed.
In defense of all morons, however, I'm fully convinced Jordan Klepper could verbally slaughter the sharpest, most seasoned, high I.Q., linguist on the planet!...and EFFORTLESSLY so.
@@darrellhambley7245 Yeah...he sets up the inconspicuous trap & they walk right in.
@@anabaird3835 you do make a very valid and convincing argument and now I really want to see him do that😝😝
Wait, the two people he's interviewing aren't actors? This isn't scripted?
Jordan has to be one of my favorite comedian ever!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This is the best Klepper segment by far. And that woman is a queen.
And so is the pastor
What? No way. You must be new to his channel. Check out his Trump follower interviews
Patton Oswalt had an excellent bit about how if these people would just admit they are uncomfortable with LGBTQ+ folks instead of hiding behind their bibles, we could have started a valid dialog that could potentially lead to a solution.
He is a national treasure!
I don't really think there's so much uncomfortable as they need someone to punch down at because they're cowards and they need that person to not be allowed to fight back
The problem is that most of them know how ridiculous / indefensible to point to their personal discomfort as some sort of argument. The moment they admit that’s their core issue is the moment they’ve lost the debate as well as credibility, and they know that.
Eh they don’t want a dialogue, it’s their way or nothing
The solution is a very simple one: people who object to sharing a public bathroom with anyone, need to discuss their irrational fears with a mental health professional. Transgender women don’t need to put up with irrational fears, they use the bathroom to relieve themselves, not to make a scene.
So, if you’re not grown up or adult enough to share a public bathroom, then you aren’t yet adult enough to be venturing into the public sphere. And should probably stay at home until mommy and daddy can teach them how to be adults/
How can this man not see the irony of "they are hanging their flag" while standing in front of a massive Jesus statue he has that can be seen from all over the area.
because when you seek priority and privilege, you tend to not see anything else.
Think he feels the same way about the stars and bars?
Because he isn't very intelligent... or self aware.
"but-but-but,,, that's DIFFERENT!" says Randall Christie
He's in the closet!
That pastor.... I mean.... come on.... I'm not the only one who sees it right?
Eureka Springs is the most LGBTQ+ friendly city in Arkansas! He's fighting a losing battle. (And there are blue pockets in the red state of Arkansas. Eureka Springs is part of that.)
Agreed! A lof of Arkansas doesn't fit the stereotype.
Right, it's been the artsy enclave for a long time. That minister might feel more comfortable in Harrison.
I, however, believe the whole state should be a chemical weapons test site or carpet bombed. I crossed the bridge at Memphis and just wanted to stop and see the Mississippi River. This simple desire resulted in me being pulled over by two state patrolman, my car tossed and me having a panic attack about chopping cotton on a prison farm for twenty years. AND I am a white senior citizen. I can only imagine what it is like for black people in the state. After Jed Clampett left there is no reason for the state to exist
Oh my Allah eurala springs could be the Greenwich village of the south where LGBTs walks the streets in Native American costumes. It's okay when they do it, ask any Native American who their favorite Village People singer is "I have all his albums,"
It's not blue. It's human.
I lived in Eureka for five years after I flunked out of college. It's amazing. Half the population is artists/musicians/actors. I moved to NYC to be a big star, & have been here 22 years now, but I got married in Eureka on the Post office steps, to a woman that also happened to be from Eureka. We were only acquaintances in Eureka, & strangers in NYC, brought together by mutual friends visiting. How that happens in a city of 8 million ppl is beyond me. Hi anybody from Eureka watching this!
Did you get to be a big star tho?
Cool story! Happy you found each other. Doesn't happen as often as we'd like. 💚🌎✌️😎
@@mathiasseverin5673 Haha, yes, in my own mind. That was more of a joke, but I did become a legitimate artist. I probably was back then too, but I'm a composer now & I know & am dedicated to my craft, back then I was about the scene as much writing & performing music. I guess that's called maturity lol.
As someone born and raised about an hour from Eureka, I'm thrilled with this piece. Eureka Springs has almost exclusively been the most accepting town in the state. Definitely has gender neutral Gelato, snowcones, and the best bacon sandwich ever. I'm glad the pastor didn't start spouting off about the insane toy store, board and table top game store, or le gasp! The HAUNTED CRESCENT HOTEL!!
That woman's responses were all perfect. Oh, can we trade her for Covid Kim?
That pastor is a character straight out of a comedy movie
To me, Klepper is the funniest man on CZcams, hands down. He flies his humor in the face of people who are completely serious.
I laughed my as of this time.
I agree, but think Desi Lydic (also from The Daily Show) also does great GOP vs. reality pieces. Her Foxsplaining reports are hilarious.
@@jerryeberts have to check her out
Klepper back at it again, making me laugh at the lack of self awareness
This is from a really, really old episode
@@wolfgangbr1576 Yet freightfully relevant.
FIRST OFF, that little old lady is amazing, and Jordan, I love how you just set people up and let them hang themselves with their own stupidity and bigotry. Keep up the great work my friend
Klepper is freaking amazing...he needs his own show...the way he spins peoples slanted views back at them.... light-handedly insults them and they don't even know it.....BRILLIANT
“Ice cream is not gender neutral?” is my new favorite thing to hear 🤣🤣🤣
What a fantastic ordinance and that it passed with such a large % in such a conservative state really gives me hope!
I want a 60 minutes interview of that old grandma and Jordan. One of the few times when someone had all the right answers to Jordan's sarcastic questions.
I thought that the elderly woman would be very homophobic as that’s the stereotype. So glad I was wrong. Protect and respect this woman!
This seems like a possible case of outrage against something because you hate it about yourself🤔
I said the exact same thing! 😬
Many homophobes are actually in the closet so... And I think that some of his frustration could come from the fact that his faith and his position in the church might not allow him to even acknowledge it to himself.
It's nice to see something positive happening in regards to LGBTQ+ rights. It gets a wee bit exhausting constantly hearing about legislation being passed or proposed that strips our rights away.
such as?
@@jonathanlindsey8864 Can't do your own research?
@@johnpurdy3336 they where tired of hearing anti lgbt bills getting passed thought they would have some exanples. You know... You sound like a Republican asking why I don't think the election was fraud, and anyone who 'did their own research' could see it.
@@jonathanlindsey8864 There are definitely options though, you may not already know but I think we should also hold ourselves responsible for seeing what's really going on in America.
@@jonathanlindsey8864being denied housing. Possibly being fired from your job. Being murdered because somebody doesn't agree with it. Being denied services because of religious freedom. Some Christians even want to pass a law on denying somebody medical attention should they still need it especially in an emergency just because of who they are.
Being from Northwest Arkansas, (arguably the most progressive portion of the state) I’d like to apologize for the rest of my state…
Same.
I'm from Central Arkansas, and yeah... 100% agree
Hi i am from the Netherlands once the most liberal country of Europe and your apologie is accepted
Same! From Rogers!
I lived in southwest Arkansas for a few years and I have to say that it was the most miserable place I've ever been. In those years, I never met anyone or anything even remotely progressive, just Jesus, Bible, hellfire and being a hypocrite by crossing county lines to get alcohol because in church they demanded their county be dry.
WHAT???? I wish this would have been longer. I loved that woman ❤ There was so much more to tell in that story.
