No, although there are discussions of pedophilia and CSA in regards to the Briggs Initiative- an attempt to ban gay teachers under the assumption that they were dangerous for kids to be around.

Milk was murdered. While there is a hopeful message at the end, the documentary puts focus on the grief and injustice people felt after his death.

There are slurs used, but largely only used by queer people or allies. Some clips of transphobic and homophobic hate speech are included in the film however.

Dan White received a reduced sentence for murder under the claim that he was "depressed from eating junk food". While this is (obviously) disputed, the idea that mental illness causes violence is mentioned.

There are scenes where people smoke cigarettes and drink alcohol, largely in the background. There is one scene where Milk breaks his sobriety to drink champagne.
