"... I much prefer (the term) faggot..."

How about "Turd-Burgling Butt Pirate" or "Felching Rump Ranger"?

P.S.: Don't look up "felching". Just don't

Agreed. First and foremost, unless the gay couple physically attacked someone, there is no reason to assault them, period. It doesn’t matter that they are gay, or that they were hugging in public. None of that makes it OK to physically assault them.

Second, the article suggests that the assailants were Latinos who attacked the couple because they were gay. Maybe that’s true and maybe it isn’t, but it raises a problem that the PC news media never wants to talk about it — anti-gay bigotry by minority groups. Let’s see how the media plays this. If it turns out to be illegal immigrants, I bet the story gets dropped like a hot potato.

Exactly.

And actually if you see the video it appears to be more of a slap fight than an attack. These guys went on TV with apparent injuries, but there was no proof these came from that incident.

Media leaps to conclusions and NEVER EVER questions any person in an assigned victim group.

White Hispanic.

“What are they doing ‘hugging’ in front of the bathroom?”

What difference does it make? I’m in a Christian organization and all the men hug. And these men come straight out of the Appalachian hills and they look like it.

Oh man, they will come down hard on the perp! Assaulting gays is one of the worst things you can do these days in the eyes of the law!

....one of their attackers yelled an offensive Spanish word for homosexuals before hitting them several times, according to the police report.

Oh, it was a hispanic. Well, in that case "sorry, gay guys". Hispanics are higher on the democratic/media pander hierarchy than gays right now so just take your beating and keep quiet, it's for the good of the Democrat party cause. This one will get filed in the trash can at police HQ.

I would imagine that the men in your group hug at appropriate times and are probably not in front of or in bathrooms. The fact that the author framed the story “in front of a bathroom” which offended others probably did not demonstrate the ‘agape’ love that you are talking about and more of the eros that might have been on display.

The men in my group don’t care where they are when they do it.

I have a feeling they were more than just hugging, but kissing each other as many of these homosexuals do in public , at a bathroom to let others know that those bathrooms are where homo’s go to make out inside.

First of all, no reason to attack someone who hasn't touched or threatened you. That being said, the media is really hyping this incident...makes me think there may be more to the story than meets the eye.

Methinks he doth protest too much.

A person who would physically attack gays, most likely has *ahem* “issues” themselves.

When I see stories like this, they’re usually lying or there’s much more to the story that they’re willing to admit.
