FYI, this is a gay website, but the facts of the case are the facts. Season 2 "Top Chef" contestent Jose and some friends were kicked and spat on by a group of 12 guys outside of a bar as the guys yelled gay slurs at them. Why? Why the hate? I just don't get it.

Some people are just afraid of what they don't understand, so they lash out. That's really all there is to it. All that hate, all that anger, all that bias - it's stems from lack of understanding and fear. If you were to walk up to any of those 12 men and asked them about the science behind homosexuality, and what they knew of homosexuality, you wouldn't get much of an answer. They don't know, nor do they care to. They've had no reason to because they've probably never made an attempt to actually get to know any homosexuals.

While it seems callous, I usually pass people like this off as a waste of time. I don't care to argue with them, because it wouldn't make a difference. They choose to remain ignorant, so I'll let them enjoy that. I've met enough of those kind of people to know how their minds work, and I know from an experience that any attempt at enlightenment is a waste.

Exactly. If a person doesn't like gays, fine. Don't like them. But that does not give them the right to hurt another human being. I hope they get prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Sadly there will always be people who have hatred towards others.
We seem to be going backwards instead of forwards in society nowadays.
We have become very segregated, fear the unknown and some people will stay firmly inside their box and mistrust or hate anyone or anything that doesn't fit in the box with them.

Many people still grow up in communities or families that have prejudices and this is indoctrinated into them which makes them feel they are superior to anyone else.
I watched the film American History X a while back and there is one scene that is so upsetting. It shows the 2 male characters as little kids running on the beach, innocent and not influenced by their fathers prejudices.
We all come into this world innocent and it is what we experience that makes us who we are. I feel sorry for those who are brainwashed into believing they have the right to hurt or abuse others.

Until we can accept people for what they are this will sadly always exist. Its one of the sad aspects of human beings!!

Hi cyntrow, I agree with you 100%. It is crazy to see this sort of thing happening in the twenty first century. There are still many people who refuse to accept the fact, that gays are regular people, who just want the same rights as everyone else. Down through the years all minorities have had to fight for basic human rights. Eventually, people will be more accepting, and there will be less of this sort of behaviour. Blessings.

It's happening now. People are starting to understand. But as long as my son's life and health are at stake I will fight to my dying breath.
