But, yes, exploiting any tragedy for political purpose is tacky at best and reprehensible at worst.
Most of the flak she got was from justifying it as a safety precaution and in turn perpetuating a lot of untrue things about the gay community by implying that they have different safety measures. These days, everyone does anal anyways so it's not like it's that big of a difference. She obviously has the freedom to do what she wants, but when she warned whoever took her place that the guy had done gay porn in the past like it's something to be scared of, she made her homophobia pretty clear.

Does she deserve to die for that? I don't think so but I'll respect her stance on that matter.
