The Gay Thread

Just stupid. This entire post. You may have only heard of one gay person being murdered but that doesn't mean it's the only occasion. The laws were brought in because of common sense, compassion, understanding and respect. Tough hate crime laws? And are you suggesting by "tough" hate crime laws that they should be more lax? Perhaps you should be able to beat a gay person for their sexuality moderately. Have a broken bone limit. No prosecution if it's under 3.

As for the "most praised and protected" members of society. One, completely false. One of the reasons I've still not come out to many is because all throughout the day, from my friends and from my co-workers I often here both casual and aggressive slander of gays.

Of course i can. I stated this fact in my second post on this thread.

I never claimed that the race hate laws are a bad thing. I was answering your claim that gays are so down trodden and persecuted. They kill many thousand of African Americans because of race over many years. And no tough laws are brought in to stop this. They kill one person who happened to be gay. And tough new laws are brought in asap. That occurrence, shows that gays are not down trodden and persecuted.

I understand. It's one of the reason why i refuse to come out as a straight white male. Everytime i turn on the tv, i hear both casual and agressive slander of straight white males.

Poor Wu, persecuted homophobe :(

Shame on you, Ferret, for callously manipulating Wu's biological imperative to hate. I'm not sure, but he might have a civil rights case...

No, it shows that society has moved on and recognises that they need to take action to prevent a problem before it reaches the extremities of the black race prejudice. Doesn't mean that there aren't still countless people out there who would quite happily do the same as they did to the gays as the blacks. We may not perhaps be in as bad a situation as they were, and in some cases still are, but there is still a lot of hatred out there.

Trouble is, the slander isn't because of your sexuality or the colour of your skin. In your case it's probably about your biological need to hate. (Natural homophobia)

I have never stated a view one way or another on the subject.
Putting unwarranted lables on people. Is just evidence, that you have run out of things to say, before you ran out of the energy to type.
