A lot of ignorant people in politics want to quash gay rights. Hate crimes against gays and lesbians are committed every day. But here are some statistics:
- 5-10% of the world population is gay.
- About 12% of the world does not have safe drinking water.
- 13.6% of the world suffering from hunger every day.
- About 16% of the world lives in slums, and the number is expected to rise to 33% by 2030.
- 16.3% of America does not have health insurance.
- 20% of the world is illiterate.
- 27% of the world is living on less than $2 a day.
- 46% of children are underweight in India.
- About 54% of Africa does not have safe drinking water.
- In Africa, over 90% of people infected with AIDS have no treatment.
Attention politicians of the world: There are bigger issues at stake than your own petty bigotry and hatred. Stop the prejudice. Adapt. And let’s move forward together, united.
