Not only THAT as you say Thou Shalt Not Kill -- How about a little emphasis on the Love Thy Neighbor message throughout much of the New Testament.
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Lots of wisdom in those words, dontcha think ? 
I hear ya there, Jennifer, but the thing is we aren't seen as "others" in this current society. We are viewed as "exceptions" or something even "non-human." It's the labeling. With these labels come stereotypes, with stereotypes come phobia, and finally with phobia comes fear which often leads to hatred.
Funny how the man is supposed to be of God yet he advocates murder. Hmmm....Hey Jennifer, remember The 10 Commandments and how one of them says "Thou Shalt Not Kill?" It did not say "Thou Shalt Not Kill.....but LGBT people and LGBT Latinos are an exception to that."
I hate how people use the Bible to judge others. Even when Jesus says that it's wrong to judge. I am not religious, but I know I read the Bible alot more than most so-called Christians I have ever been associated with, like my father, who seems disappointed not at the fact that so many people lost their lives to another fellow human being but because the focus of the killings are on LGBT people. When I heard him say "LGBT," my mouth wanted to hit the floor....
