Ah yes. The famous Sebby world in which gays weren't harrassed, there was no racism, and everyone just sat around knocking over beer bottles with their dicks.
Kids probably hid their homosexual tendencies when you were in high school. And you probably ignored the things going on around you (like you seem to do today).

Another dumbass statement. It's not about the majority thinking it's okay. It's about them not doing anything about it when it happens. It's about the powerful victimizing the weak and the weak having no real recourse. Jesus fucking Christ.

I see. You're reading from the Republican playbook. Legislation is the problem! Laws destroy the economy! There isn't a problem because this is just the media!
This is a pointless conversation.
