      First off, the law IS violence. Second, if a government officially declares that a certain category of people have no legal protections, what incentives do people have not to commit violence against them?

      If their moral model is anti-LGBTQ (and it is), then their moral modal is inferior to a moral model which isn’t anti-LGBTQ.
