There is so much hostility against LGBTQP. I had some words with a couple of homophobes in a comm I co-mod over the past couple of days. They said their homophobic shit and suddenly got sensitive about the others who respoded to them, calling out their fails.

People just don't "get it."

Yeah. *Sighs* They really don't. :/

I probably shouldn't read comments like that, it puts my blood pressure up.

Though, if it's any consolation, I can tell you that if he said things like that in the UK, he'd lose his job.

That's definitely a relief.
