Homophobic Bullying

We see it happen almost everyday, at school, at the park, almost anywhere in public, but we only continue to do it. Homophobic bullying happens each and every day. for almost no reason. The private life and sexuality of others should have no impact on how we view another human being. The video shown gives us an example of how this bullying can begin, and end. They have been persecuted for so long, but now in modern day times, homosexuals are being given rights to marry and even adopt children. Instead of bullying these people, instead we should befriend them, because not only are they humans just like us, but we may never know if a certain friend or family member may come out with the news that they are too. Would that make a huge difference in the way we viewed them if that happened? Would we stop speaking to that someone? Would we treat them differently?
