Possibly ? we'll never know as it doesn't get reported. Equality for me is everyone being treated equally and NOT specific groups being given special treatment whether positive or negative. Fat guy gets abused by neds and punched in the nose is every bit as disturbing as the gay attack story but unfortunately people just seem to see that as some sort of joke. I'm sure the fat guy with the burst nose doesn't see it that way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You quite obviously miss the point which I find rather disturbing. Fat Guy -- Discriminated against for being fat. Skinny Guy - Discriminated against for being skinny. Black Guy -- Discriminated against because of their colour. Asian Guy -- Discriminated against because of their colour / religion. English Guy -- Discriminated against because of their birthplace. They all happen everyday and they are all wrong including the attacks on Gay people, however my point is that it DOES happen everyday to a wide group of people and as such gay people, or any other "group" for that matter, don't have a monopoly on being attacked or discriminated against. I honestly don't get why it's so controversial to expect everyone to be treated the same as regards victims of violence. A victim is a victim, irrespective of the perceived motivation behind the attack and why we grade it like we do, leaves me completely perplexed being honest......... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Fucking hell!!!!! Not been on this thread for a while but: 1. Both straight and non-straight people will be subject to random physical and verbal attacks that are not justified. 2. Significantly more non-straight people will be subject to physical and verbal attacks because of their sexuality/lifestyle. Anyone who doesn’t recognise that is an arsehole. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree but I wasn't denying the above, I was merely saying that all violent crimes should be treated equally and I don't see how there's a coherent argument for anything else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't worry, I'm used to it. I stand by my views and my arguments, if people don't agree or don't like them then fair enough, that's the whole point of debate. It would be a rather sad and boring world if we all agreed with each other all the time............. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
