Lady Checkmate:
The sad thing is that the homosexuals who trolled and harassed her probably knew she was suffering from abuse.

Very good, Gingham. I know you want to blame homosexuals for everything, even the California bushfires I'll bet, but in this case for the "men" who abused her, THAT is definitely a heterosexual act. From what I've read about her, only one Faux News article, the long-term effects of that seem to have contributed to her suicide.
Which is totally tragic. I don't care if she was a porn star, August Ames was also a human being, and may she RIP.
Do you have a link to any credible sources?
Never mind, I found a link to a Swedish news paper. They didn't mention sexual abuse, though, only problems with depression.
How do you know the ones, who criticized her for not working with a gay actor, were homosexuals?
And why do you care about sexual abuse all of a sudden? How about the victims of that Moore dude? Do you have this compassion for all those women, or is it only when you can spew homophobia that abuse matters to you?

Gingham; that's a good one! Fits this dolt perfectly.
Well, that is a common fundie delusion. They often assume that anyone who defends a homosexual or is pro-LGBT in some way is themselves homosexual. I think they want to paint the picture that it's an issue of the small minority of homosexuals versus the "normal people." (which, of course, means people just like them...aka homophobes) Just never mind all the polls around the time of Obergefell that showed something like 50-60% of Americans were in favor of SSM being legal. No, that's "fake news", or biased polls, or something...
Also, I bet she thinks the abuse is why she was a porn star.
Re: OP's reference to homosexuals
Based on the linked Fox news story, it would appear that Ames suffered from cyberbullying after she refused to do porn with a man who had previously done gay porn. The cyberbullying contributed to her suicide.
Taking this story at face value, it would seem that Lady Gingham took this as evidence of the "eeeeevil gays", and overlooked any other contributing factors, such as Ames' past sexual abuse and rather severe mental health issues.
For the curious, Ames explained it as the way the porn industry does not require testing after doing homosexual shoots, meaning that any man or woman who does a scene with them after is at risk. She *may* have been covering her ass, but from what I’ve read, she’s right.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
