Let's talk about the gay panic defense. The gay panic defense, in simple terms, is a common legal defense where the defendant in a case for assault or homicide of a queer person defends themselves by arguing that the queer person was making "unwanted advances," potentially allowing the defendant to dodge a more serious charge, such as a hate crime.

Here is a map (via Wikipedia) of states (in blue) where the defense has been outlawed. I am not sharing this information to cause panic, but to help queer people further understand their legal rights, and to provide a list of states to consider relocating to, if one sees it necessary to flee their home state to avoid the threat of violence. Stay safe out there kids, you're stronger than you know.
