Agreed. Like many other groups of Americans, they are fighting for their rights to be treated as equal Americans. Many of their complaints, like those of AIM, BLM or NOW, are legitimate with a basis in fact.
IMO, when they lie, such as fluffing up their numbers from 2% Gay to 20% Gay, it hurts their veracity and legitimacy. Does it really matter if the number is 2% or 20%? No. An American is an American regardless of gender, sexual preference, skin tone, religion or anything else. All Americans have a fundamental Constitutional right to be treated equally and fairly. Fluffing up numbers hurts their cause more than it helps it. Only idiots trust liars.
