It depends on what you were saying and how you were saying it. If you were making derogatory comments, then yes, she was right to point that out to you. But if you were simply not being "politically correct," then I don't know if you were being righteously judgmental or not.

I am finding myself to becoming more and more angry,
Yes, look up the translation/version for help with God's Perspective (His Word; His View) (not common; not normal for people)
where God says "BE CONSTANTLY ANGRY, with RIGHTEOUS INDIGNATION"(same as God's , as God Permits and grants possible).....
i.e. not human motives, not human anger "that does not work the righteousness of God" (see this also in Scripture)...

Only respond if you have any advice or anything beneficial to say.
Remember where you are. People from all over the world can read this, possibly, and many of them right or wrong can reply.

I feel equally helpless in the face of all this.
Most people do (feel helpless) and/or 'inadequate' to face it head on, to address it, because so many of their 'leaders' have caved in.
Our strength, hope, joy and truth is found , our strength is found, as God permits, in resting in Jesus and in His Word (for real, not imaginary),
trusting always in Him and relying on Him, praying constantly.
And Jesus did warn us this would happen. He warned us that the world will hate us because of Him, and because it hated Him first.
Even members of our own family may be our worst enemies. How much also politic/ relic leaders/teachers (false teachers , students of satan)....
If you are in the same position as Lot was in sodom and gomorrah, follow the Lord and get out.

A small room with a bowl of soup and slice of bread is better than a large house with contention. (yes, this is usually about a man and his wife; but see how well it fits concerning trying to stay in a "large house"(church or politic party) with unrighteousness and willful error opposed to Jesus ? )

Well I was just saying things like "Its odd how LGBT hate us despite the fact we love them and after Orlando donated blood, prayed for them, sent items down to them...etc. You don't see them talk about that in the news!". Then I also said in another story that the NYPD cops put rainbow support stuff on the cars for the victims. So I said that if it were 49 christians killed in a church, I doubt most americans would be lowering flags, putting support symbols on their cars...etc. And that the LGBT are biased towards anything that happens to them and make us out at the bad guys.

So stuff like that. I may possibly be right about what I said but my wife made me realize when I say those things, any LGBT that see it will not see the love of the Lord. So its best to stay silent then to speak in anger.

You weren't saying anything hateful, just the truth. Who cares how they take it? It's not like you were saying anything rude.

True that "the anger of man does not work the righteousness of God".
But also "Don't be surprised the whole world hates you - they hated Me(Jesus) first"...
(the whole world hates us, just like it hates Jesus) That never changes.
