More people use guns to kill themselves than to kill others.

I know many of my female friends do not like being referred to as "ladies."

As for LGBTQ people supporting Donald Trump (or other Republicans), I do understand that some of them value his stances on immigration, climate change (I should say "the war on coal"), and the economy over those of equality, fairness, and justice.
