So i've been talking to a certain friend of mine and we've come to one general conclusion, i'm so passionate about this conclusion that i will write a blog about it for the only person who reads this, but nonetheless, if you happen to stumble upon, i'm not forcing my opinion on you (except al) and if you dont like it dont read, but dont go whinging about "omg this blog says this and that" just forget about it because i dont care what your going to say.
Ok, self defence aside, here is what i'm talking about.
For years, the gay community has been the target of abuse and discrimination, gay bashing is now a regularly used term and gay hate crimes are ever more frequent. So tell me, why is the gay community just putting up with it? When will people realise that being the "bigger person" may also make you the hurt or worse, dead one.
People say violence resolves nothing, yet violence is used against us freely so i think it is only fair to defend ourselves. Yes, violence resolves nothing, but violence will give us a voice noone can ignore. We're sinking to their level you say? sure... but people only seem to understand things at "their" own level, so if it takes violence to get it through then violence is what it takes.
If you are a person who detests gays, isnt it more logical for you to simply stay away from them? You have to remember that sexuality is but a small part of another human being, dont let it blind you. Alot of people say to walk away from the fight, stemming once again from the overused cliche of being the bigger person, but for heavens sake watch your back, if you walk away from a fight, you'll be stabbed in the back.
I think it is time for the gay community to fuckin do something, mardi gras? great, we're in full force, but just out in general, if you see another gay made uncomfortable, why not come to their side, more often than not numbers can deter even the most dangerous of minds.
I'm afraid to say it but when it comes to violence and abuse, you either give or take, and i think the gay community has just gotten too use to taking
