Can you believe this!? - Empty Closets - A safe online community for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered people coming out

Mason · 3rd May 2009, 09:16 AM

Ok. I just thought I'd share something I heard that really insulted me and will probably get everyone else upset as well.

I was sitting in English class one day, and there were these two kids sitting next to me. Out of nowhere, they start saying things like gays are stupid, gays are retarded, gays shouldn't exist. Then they go on saying "Hey, let's take all the Gays and all the Jews and put them in a country somewhere. The result, they will all fight and kill each other and we will have a gay free world!" I was so appalled when I heard that. I wanted to just turn around and punch them both. Can you believe that there are actually people out there who say stuff like this?

Dazed · 3rd May 2009, 09:23 AM

haha oh my those comments arent worth wasting time on. as if there are no gay jews. i mean really those kids are the ones who are stupid.

507bro · 3rd May 2009, 09:24 AM

people

Roralo · 3rd May 2009, 09:40 AM

Unfortunatly there will always be ignorant people out there. Not only were they homophobic but racist as well, how proud they must be of themselves!! It does really wind me up, grrrr!

exactly, I actually spent most of yesterday in the company of a gay Jewish couple.

Anyway, we have a guy in my yeargroup at school who talks like that, but no-one listens to him and he has some serious issues... Strangely, he's actually quite a nice guy once you start talking to him (yes he knows I'm gay, half Jewish and half German - just about the ultimate 'evil' combo as far as he's concerned).

jotheoneandonly · 3rd May 2009, 10:36 AM

i bet you my left sock that one of them was acctually gay, and was just going along with the other one to hide it.

zzzzzz13 · 3rd May 2009, 10:39 AM

like everyones said, there will always be people like that! ignorant and stupid people who most likely realise how wrong they are when someone close to them turns out to be gay

Nodnarb · 3rd May 2009, 10:42 AM

Yes, I can believe it. Just the other day, a couple guys I go to school with decided that it would be a good idea to round up all the gay people and ship them off to an island somewhere (they eventually decided on Australia

). One of them then made the comment "Where's Hitler when you need him?" Fortunately, one of the others spoke up and told him that he had crossed the line. But still....some people

.

Starburst · 3rd May 2009, 10:52 AM

Haha. I feel sorry for those American kids of such a kind. As "people" choose to treat us "specially" and "distinctively," they have to tread on trashes like these to combat our moral standard.
And here is one thing I want to share with you. I learnt it from my Greco-Roman democracy class. Call them "Stultus Asinus." It is Latin for "Dumb Ass."

Mike J · 3rd May 2009, 12:02 PM

lol. I love to recognize that most arguments and put downs against gays always sound so completely unintelligent.

Daniel · 3rd May 2009, 01:08 PM

I have Nazi's at my school. I'm hard to offend.

sparkyboyM · 5th May 2009, 05:30 AM

hm...taking all the gays and jews and shutting them away somewhere until they're all dead...

is it just me or has something a lot like this happened before in history?

Just Adam · 5th May 2009, 05:43 AM

id just laugh at them and their small minded nature.

ricoca · 5th May 2009, 06:03 AM

I'm not really surprised

I mean, these kinds of comments are pretty common everywhere.
They're just ignorant people who think this world can function without gays or jews or whatever.
Hah. Discrimination to the boot.
