This incident has shown me that I have several idiotic Facebook now-un-friends. I actually can't even begin to encapsulate the conversation I had earlier today with someone, and I won't, but let it be known that a gay man basically said that gays were better than other minorities because they "wouldn't riot" in similar circumstances, and then another one said that even if they did riot it would be okay because they haven't had the same rights as the rest of America for the past 40 years, legally speaking.
