I don't think most of them really want to murder me but in the past I've had a pretty rough time from some right wing people. Lots of name-calling and threatened violence. A few acts of actual violence, but I've only really felt my life was in danger a couple of times.
There's a couple of reasons. I grew up in a rural state and had friends who were Jewish, Black, and Chinese. Frequently resulted in name-calling and sometimes fights. In highschool, I dated interracially. That caused a lot of aggression too. It probably doesn't help that I'm also areligious.
Funny. The main reason isn't a big secret but I am still always nervous to speak of it to strangers, though I suppose it's much more common these days. In 1990 I got caught by a gang of drunk college boys in rural Oklahoma. ... One of them had recognized me from our dormitory. I fight well, or they probably would have killed me. It's made me somewhat cautious. :/
Anyhow... I had a certain operation about a decade ago. In certain countries (Iran, for instance) could be publicly executed for what I am; A living obscenity with no hope of redemption.
But like I said above, 'eliminate'. Not 'murder'. There are a few violent people who might consider murdering me but they're mentally ill and it's got little to do with religion. Eliminate is different. You can eliminate someone by putting them in a mental institution or prison for the rest of their life. You can deny them jobs, medical care, and police protection. You need not kill someone to eliminate them. That's what the moral majority would mostly prefer to do with my kind. Make us not exist.
