Well... And a lot of them just moved to locations that were safer for them so they are more concentrated in certain areas. People saying they're no boomer lqbtq people haven't been to San Francisco or key west apparently.

I know it's Key West and everything, but I just can't imagine why an lgbtq+ person would ever choose to move to Florida.

Florida being a super conservative state is relatively new. I mean Obama won Florida in 08 and in 2012. It wasn't until 2020 when Republicans really secured the state as fascist hell hole. Key West has been a "port in the storm" for gay people since the 1950's.

It always gives me a bit of pause to remember that the Pulse gay nightclub shooting during it's Latino culture celebration was in Orlando, Florida.
