OK, this is significantly less insulting than the below comments...1. Ok, that's f***-ed up, that priest needs to be reported to the diocese, because that's so far opposed to church policy that it's unforgivable.
2. The enemy... congrats, you've dehumanized them, and once you've done that, anything is acceptable.
3. They hurt you, you want to get back at them, but the deepest wounds that they gave you were psychological, the were so vile that they gave you the belief that it was moral to believe what you do about people, that's it right to dehumanize them.
4.No, force is often an encouragement to seek bigger guns.
5. Don't get me wrong, I'm not universally opposed to violence (years and years of martial arts experience), but I'm not going to go picking a fight.
Homophobes aren't worth destroying yourself over.
1. This was a long time ago, he's fine, and I don't want anything to do with the church. Seriously. Especially that one.
2. That's an impressive stretch.
3. I don't care at all at this point, it was in the past. I just can't accept that people are willing to tolerate something that has physically injured me in the past. Homophobia is being viewed here basically as just a belief system to oppose. The real human cost is largely ignored, or trivialized ("Its easier to be a victim" lol).
4. Not applicable to your garden variety fights.
So break their trigger finger.
5. I specified that I DID not support picking fights, but rather self-defense. Fights are plentiful without seeking them out.
I agree, I did not come out completely unscathed. But I went on to start the GSA at my high school, and I haven't had to fight anyone in a long time over this. The fact is though, being gay can cost you your job, or get you physically hurt. It isn't possible to always turn the other cheek. In fact, its moronic.
Amazing BS follows. I'm glad you responded otherwise.
um, noVeril, you need to chill.
noYou last comment I would like to bash, with your permission only.
on the road. lol. You don't know anything about me...Congratulations, Veril. You're on the road to becoming the people you hate.
Please just... take that back.Few things wrong with "forcing" them to see it your way. One, "opening" their eyes doesn't really work when you're too busy being rash and fighting them like a dog over a piece of meat.
