Astounded?

"I don't understand how, in the society we live in today, with the laws we have, how people can still feel uncomfortable."

Really?

They've yelled at customers outside our shop, saying `Don't go in there', calling us faggots.

Some nutters up sticks at their shop muttering to the press "it's because were gay...". The Chris Carter mewling to the fore yet again!

Maybe those of that persuasion would do well to remember that it does not matter how many liberal laws are passed or progressive mass indoctrinations occur via schools and media, there are those that consider their chosen lifestyle is utterly depraved, despicable, immoral and obscene in the extreme. And rightly will do so till the day they die.
