They jabbed by using a slur. If I said "Wikedfire acts like a bunch of spics" how to do you think Mexicans would feel about that. Would they go.. oh... they were making fun of THEM.. not us, being called a spic is insulting and degrades my race, but.. HAHAHAHA. I don't think so. How is being gay a jab? I don't think it is BAD thing being bi-sexual, gay, lesbian, or tansgenedered. But by calling someone or something a fag, not only are you insulting the person or thing, you are insulting us "fags." By literally saying to be gay is bad, and we will call other people gay because it is bad to be gay.
I never said it was an attack on homosexuals. Saying "I think all homosexuals are evil and should die" is an attack. No instead it is just a promotion and acceptance of using slurs against groups of people. It only adds to what we in the GLBT Centers have to try to combat and fight every single day. Slurs only say "it's ok to insult and be intolerant of certain groups of people." Slurs are never ok, joke or not.
