I would be frustrated as well. A while back I was on a date and a rather rude comment was made when I decided to kiss my date after handing him his coat. I turned to see two rather large males both of whom would not have been at all out of place in varsity jackets. They proceeded to make comments about gays and myself in particular. When they had said enough that my honour felt impugned, I challanged them to a contest of wills and when they declined I called them cowards. hey agreed, we departed outside the restaurant, and I proceeded to neutralize them. I am un armed combat trained being law enforcement officer. They did not take too kindly about having their proverbial asses kicked by a fga so to speak.
Violence is not the answer - but it was my answer. Ignorance needs to be stamped out and sometimes the only way to do it is under the heel of a jackboot.
I don't recommend being too blustery if you are not sufficiently drilled in the martial *military* arts. (((not karate, I mean true martial))).
Steda, you and I have dealt with out share of idiots. They are everywhere. Rest assured we will probably not see their annihilation in our life times. All we can do is carry ourselves with dignity and fanatically defend our right of normalcy - nothing more, but nothing less that Bob and Mary receive.
Yes, going into the Army and pretending to be staright, I realize the irony of this post. So be it.
