CW: Gun Violence, Homophobia.

<
Jonathan Joss
6m •
Statement from Tristan Kern de Gonzales
Husband of Jonathan Joss
My husband Jonathan Joss and I were involved in a
shooting while checking the mail at the site of our
former home. That home was burned down after over
two years of threats from people in the area who
repeatedly told us they would set it on fire. We
reported these threats to law enforcement multiple
times and nothing was done.
Throughout that time we were harassed regularly by
individuals who made it clear they did not accept our
relationship. Much of the harassment was openly
homophobic.
When we returned to the site to check our mail we
discovered the skull of one of our dogs and its
harness placed in clear view. This caused both of us
severe emotional distress. We began yelling and
crying in response to the pain of what we saw.
While we were doing this a man approached us. He
started yelling violent homophobic slurs at us. He
then raised a gun from his lap and fired.

Jonathan and I had no weapons. We were not
threatening anyone. We were grieving. We were
standing side by side. When the man fired Jonathan
pushed me out of the way. He saved my life.
Jonathan is my husband. He gave me more love in our
time together than most people ever get. We were
newlyweds. We picked Valentines Day. We were in the
process of looking for a trailer and planning our
future.
He was murdered by someone who could not stand
the sight of two men loving each other.
I was with him when he passed. I told him how much
he was loved.
To everyone who supported him, his fans, his friends,
know that he valued you deeply. He saw you as
family.
My focus now is on protecting Jonathan's legacy and
honoring the life we built together.
If your concern is how someone coped with trauma or
how loudly they speak when recounting injustice and
being ignored by authorities then you never truly
cared about my husband.
Jonathan saved my life. I will carry that forward. I will
protect what he built.
- Tristan Kern de Gonzales

TIER ONE: Americans who Donald Trump pedophiled with: They get shielded from prosecution for the crimes they did commit.

TIER TWO: Americans who brought Donald to justice for the crimes he did commit, they get prosecuted as revenge even if they committed no crimes whatsoever.

Needing multiple streams of income to stay afloat is a societal failure not a personal one. You should be able to afford a comfortable lifestyle with one job. You are not lazy.

Why is it that the people are forced to bear the brunt of costs? Why is it that the people that do the work and pay the taxes have to ALSO accept cuts to services and lost hospitals and libraries and schools?

I don't see anyone taking away a single rocket from Musk, but everyone else is losing.
