Trump to end LGBTQ crisis hotline… why?

[Seymour Flops]

The usage stats show that it was needed and being used in large numbers.

No we don’t need a gay 911. If you’re equivocating 988 to 911 in that respect then you’re just plain ignorant

Did those stats come from the advocates of the LGBT hotline?

Correct they save tax payer money and didn’t fund somerhhhg that was not needed

Should we have a gay 911?

There is a comedy skit that would write itself.

"He-ey! 911, what is your gaymergency?"

So we should set aside tens of millions every year just for .000002% of the population who are nut jobs?

700 out of 350 million.

700 people isn’t large numbers

Maybe to you. But it’s added up to over a million since the line became available in 2022.

Whatever happened to one life lost being too much? Now 700 a day isn’t a large number?

 

[Nostra]

Well there you go…. Help justified

Oh, so because it is part of the government it is automatically justified ?

Moron.

The hotline is a publicly funded effort that Trump initiated. Their website reports usage stats. Do you think they are lies?

Wow man, that’s soooo funny. You should take your act in the road!

Three years: 1095 days.

700 per day doesn’t get you to over a million. You suck at math.

You said there was many non cabinet level things

You just said it started in 2022.

700 isn’t a big number

And you haven’t shown us how many lives were saved because people hit option 3

I was just baiting you into saying the 988 hotline was under a cabinet position. You’re more interested in petty gotchya wins. So you’re easy to bait. It’s better when you make my points for me. Saves time

I’ve shown over 2000 a day calling a crisis hotline dealing with LGBtQ issues and potential suicide. I’d consider those calls potential lives lost and saved.

How do you know they were all sucide calls?

 

[laferia52]

So what?

so why do you need one for a specific group? so can you answer that. SO WHAT?

 

[rightwinger]

700 people isn’t large numbers

A day?

 

[struth]

A day?

Nope not a large number there are 340 million people living in the united states f

 

[Nostra]

A day?

.000002% of the population.

That’s YUUUUUUGE, right?

The government lie?

Perish the thought!

How many suicides of LBGT folk did we have before this hotline? 2000 per day?

 

[rightwinger]

.000002% of the population.

That’s YUUUUUUGE, right?

I guess that depends on who you ask. Bottom line is Trump is in charge of it now and if it was coaching kids in a way he didn’t like he could restaff or retrain or give them tools to better help. He didn’t do that. He cut.

Let em ask you. How does cutting help the problem?

Well hold on, there's only one truth. Was it coaching kids into embracing lgbtq lifestyle or not? You say "depending on who you ask". The difference is pretty significant. Of they were indeed trying to steer kids toward lgbtq lifestyles without their parents knowing, that is an issue. If it was only them trying to talk these kids out of suicide, then i would agree, would should keep it.
