    Fucking hell. AGAIN. Seriously, why do people feel justified in committing these acts?

    People do this kind of stuff because they don't understand, but when they do they hate the idea so they take matters into their own hands when it is not their place to. Everyone needs to remain strong and beat the tyrant that is prejudice.
     
  6. Very, very sad and disgusting. I hate when people try to justify it in comments below.

    I have some Jamaican heritage and of that I'm ashamed. Really ashamed. I'd say sorry on behalf of them but I don't think they are sorry. I feel a strong hatred now... I bet my Jamaican grandparents (who live in England) wouldn't give a fuck. Fucking Jamaicans.

    And I was so proud of my heritage... I knew they were homophobic because of religion-wait! That is what it is - religion. The worst thing that happened to the human race, be it true or not. The bible is as real ad The Chronicles Of Narnia really. In two thousand years, maybe people will be worshipping speaking lions and the like. Oops, i'm kinda digressing lol!

    So this is kind of what I mean when I say that the queer community needs warriors. Now, obviously, you're not going to win one against many, and I cannot say enough how cowardly it is to attack someone as a mob... but we need more defenders. Nobody is on our side it feels like, least of all those of us who are trans* or genderqueer.

    I am so ashamed to live there. The worst thing is that the incident barely got any press coverage here. Most people support what happened.

    Not too long ago a guy was chased by a mob after he was found in a compromising situation with another guy in a male bathroom at a University. He sought refuge at a guardhouse and the security guards beat him up while the mob cheered them on.

    It's really terrible here. :frowning2:
