Please read this whether you are heterosexual or lgbtqia. It is a large piece of lgbtqia history. And I am afraid it will happen here if Trump is elected President once again
Back in Germany in 1871 paragraph 175 was added to the German Criminal Code. It prohibited homosexual contact. Long time hate has been going on right?
Then came Hi**er. 1930 to 1940 he expanded Paragraph 175 to ban it broad range of lewd and lascivious behavior between men, making such acts punishable by imprisionment.. Ha! Le****ns, they thought could be force or convinced to help help grow the "pure" German race. FORCED into having children by been that they didn't want to have sexual relationships with, is my understanding.
100,000 gay were arrested. 50 percent were sent to prison, if they were lucky, the rest went to extermination camps. They were either worked to death, took their own lives or were killed by N**i soldiers.
Phew finally on June 11, 1994 paragraph 175 was finally cast out. That really not too long ago if you think about it.
January 27th marks libration of Auschwitz-Birkenau which was one of the largest N**i concentration camps.
Act-up organization here in America used the upside-down pink triangle and turned it right side up to remind people of what could happen again. If you don't know what Act-up is please research that too.
Please don't vote for Trump
