- "An angry man was caught on video last week attacking a fellow passenger at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, apparently because he thought the man was gay. But then, a group of bystanders, including a man in a cowboy hat, quickly took action to bring the man down, according to the video.
WARNING: The video, and description below, contain some NSFW language.
Before the fight, the man in the cowboy hat tries to intervene.” *

Real men wear pink shirts.
Cuddletoe Thank you. In medieval times, men wore high heels to show their class status in society.
*****
Exactly.
Agreed
***** Arnt they real men too ?
Apparently that dipshit didn't get the memo.
I love that he got taken down by another guy wearing a pink shirt.
karma at it's finest
Poetic justice
Mmhmm
Dude ! Awesome observation 👏
I don't remember ever seeing a straight person abused and threatened like that for being straight. Remind me again why Boston needs a straight pride?
THANK YOU
EXACTLY
Because it triggers derranged fascists
@Devin Brown congratulations on misunderstanding pride.
@Devin Brown there is in a society that frequently sidelines, stereotypes, or "others" you, where you have to really think about your safety before going outside. I've been screamed at for holding another man's hand a lot. Just holding hands. I and many many others gave been told that while someone has no problem with us in principle, that they'd really like to pretend we don't exist. A couple of trans friends have been assaulted more times than I can count. Children are often considered "not ready" to know about LGBTQ+ people, but it's fine to foist expectations that they will be straight and cisgender. Those things are not small. There are a great many more resources you could learn from that are far more articulate than I am. Perhaps you could consider that there might be something more than your internal monologue and beliefs before making assertions.
Those workers need to be fired. That is not okay for them to stand there an watch this going on.
Ya
They certainly told him to stop, that his behavior was wrong and called security, but they're not trained to be security themselves.
@@watsonsd1 Yeah, they did what they could to the best of their ability.
It’s not their job technically. Although morally reprehensible sure, they have no legal obligation to intervene.
I was a security guard and the unfortunate thing (or fortunate depending on who is a guard) is that if anything happens, we can’t touch people unless we are directly attacked. Some places even tell you to run instead of fight back.
Basically, you’re not a cop. You don’t have any more authority than the person you’re supposed to be dealing with. You are a liability to the company if you harm someone while working as a security guard. You can and will be fired if you get physical trying to help people.
And people say that gay people are using the gay card under real situations of harassment at the work place. When homophobia is relevant and also still an issue.
Hi i dont know you but i just wanna say i love you lol
Angel Belau why do you think he’s gay?
@Daniel S And your comment is not evil?
Daniel S So it’s ok for you to be selfish? Oh the hypocrisy.
@Irock2190 no, I'm no where near as bad. People like him make the world a worse place to be, and if he had half a heart he'd off himself
I simply don't understand why men are homophobic. I wish more men were homosexual...less competition.
Because the majority of "straight men hating gay men" is derived from their own personal issues with homosexuality (i.e. they are in the closet, they feel shame from some other areas in their life, they have low self esteem in their own sexuality or feel threatened by gay men, etc.).
I totaly agree with you... More gay men = less competition to get women. So why all the hate? Everyone is happy. #dothemath #getoverit
Ikr? It's like Doctor Brennan from Bones said, " It makes no sense for heterosexuals to be intimidated or threatened by homosexuals because they are eliminating themselves in the competition for mates."
Joshua Bassett lol XD. that bones. well we live in a sexist society were gender roles are very prevalent, so for a men to asume a more "feminine" role... some people react with hate because that's what they know.
That.....is the dumbest thing I've ever read
+darklyresplendentone lol
Little late but imagine being so insecure about your masculinity you'll beat up men wearing pink shirts🤦
Real men wear pink😎
Ikr?
Fr, bro never grew up past middle school 💀
One Security only got involved when citizens took the homophobe down. 🤦♀️
Indeed. TSA ain't exactly top of the heap. They're a sad illusion of security.
Usually the cops are too aggressive. VERY weak action by them!
Pink shirt=gay? What decade is this 😂
Katherine Byers gay people made pink GAY duh!!!
Lmao right? 1995 called and it wants it’s bigots back.
Don't you mean century?
Fun fact: there was a time (forgot when, in the early 19s i think) where pink was associated for boys because it is considered a strong and bright colour and blue for girls because it shows calmness and serenity. One day a baby product manufacturer decided to switch the colour and after that we associate the colours differently
Katherine Byers Don't you know??? This is murica being great again...
Homophobia, racism, agesim, sexism and all of this hate for what? NATURE did not intend for everyone to be the same. Everyone do not look the same or love the same we are all different. And that is what make the world a beautiful place. If we all looked the same and if we acted the same than the world would be a BORING place. Can't you see! Diversity is beautiful! Stop the hatred and admire and acknowledge the beauty in this world. Stop turning all of this beauty into something ugly because you can't accept peoples differences
If god wanted everyone to be the same, then there would only be humans, and no animals
@Telimetrico No importa lol xd shut your straight mouth until you learn proper English, thank you.
@@danymedina9074 stfu that was unnecessary and go learn proper grammar.
@@danymedina9074 bish wha-
Well said.
Jeez wth. Pink has nothing to do with sexual orientation. Pink is just a color, who cares. If i had to associate that color with something, id say breast cancer awareness. I dont get people sometimes. Well, most of the time, haha. Anytime someone says "cause this is 'murica," my blood boils in embarrassment and shame.
You mean "gee whiz"?
I don't get your guys... what does it matter whether pink is a "gay" color or not? The victim could have worn a rainbow flag as a cape and a picture of the village people tatooed on his forhead for all I care. Attacking people for their sexual orientation, perceived, imaginary or real, is a hatecrime.
I would find it much more understandable if the fat guy had attacked the victim for fashion reasons.
I used to have a pink and peach undershirt to a suit and well I looked good in it but I'm not gay.
And he gets taken down by a guy in a shirt 10x louder than the one he was yelling about.
who was in a wheelchair.
@@lucylastic A beautiful cosmic irony!
And the power and presence that man had! He was just like "YOU WANNA TAKE SHIT AND HIT! THEN TASTE THE FLOOR!"
That was really cool how citizens jumped in to defend him.
Donald Gryder Yep
+ MoPot
Here's what's really UNcool:
McCleish Christmas Benham of Shelbyville, Tennessee.
$474 fine, NO jail time.
Prior convictions for theft & animal abuse.
Gotta love the American justice system, where violent criminals are allowed to roam free until they actually kill or seriously injure someone.
yeah bruh he ain't going to jail for that and i'd rather not pay for him to be there
Wisdom of the crowd
Very brave police officer... waits for the bad guy to be tackled by a mob before he reacts.
Ashley Montana And then pulls off the good guys
Ashley Montana I agree.. typical ..chicken shit cop should have tazed the punk ,, long before this escalated ..I don't believe in gay living but I will not disrespect another human this way ..
Wiley Ray Eisen uh ..oops tsa agent not a cop ..still bullshit ..should have tazed the punk why pay them?
Wiley Ray Eisen YOU JUST DID..YOUR BORN GAY..UNLESS YOU BELIEVE CHRISTAINS THAT SAY WE'VE DOCUMENTETED IT...BLASTFORMY...THATS IT..SO..WAKE UP...YOUR A DIP SHIT..MAYBE SOMEONE WILL HIT YOU FOR BEING BORN WITHOUT EARS
***** I think he is the one that instigated the whole thing. He could have ignored the guy in pink shirt. He didn't have to attack or insult him. And you have to admit the kick was uncalled for too.
The security are cowards.
Geraldine Mole considering even the armed cops stood by until some citizens tackled him before they moved to pile on - it puts the uselessness of the TSA rent-a-cops into perspective. Guess they were waiting for the metro SWAT team to back them up in collaring a loudmouth drunk.
A E I don’t agree with your opinion on women all being cowards but your entitled to your opinion I guess.
Fat woman or not- You're hired for a job and you fail to even attempt to do it- your ass needs to be fired and never hired for that type of job again.
The success rate of the TSA in random checks is super low. It's very clear that they have failed totally as an organization
Gel it's a psychological FACT that women are more agreeable, idk about bigger cowards but they are less likely to cause a confrontation.
"Cowboy Hat Wearing Bystander"
Keep those titles coming lol
More like the hot pink guy.
" he's queer!" I didn't realize a pink shirt made you gay but okay ThEn smh
it does
J Goetz Maybe in your fantasy world but not in the real world.
Not since at least the 90’s
that homophobic guy will learn in jail, the hard way.... get it?
Bobbius Shadow knowing him, he would drop the soap on purpose xD
Props to all the guys that took that dude down when he started hitting that old man. You gentlemen are real men.
TheLicktysplitz hw
Especially the guy with the wheelchair.
No they aren't. Real men would have stopped the verbal assault not stand there and do nothing ALLOWING it to rise to the point of a physical altercation. It's like arresting and releasing a teen to his parents after finding out he made threats to shoot up a school and then weeks later having to come back to the school and disarm him after he killed 10 students. The comparison is that it all could have prevented due to the obvious signs that it would escalate if not stopped. They should have stepped enough when he was being verbally abusive, not just stand there and watch.
The members of the public in The airport did a great job that was not theirs and the police proved a point that the police are a waste of time and space.
The Texan police is even more of a waste of time and space than all the other polices. Remember The Houston Mass Murders, how they handled the dozens of missing boys reports?
“...it takes a cowboy to bring a homophobe down.” LOVE IT.
What the hell did the pink shirted guy do to deserve such disgusting treatment?!!
Staggering bigotry.😔
well he may have done something not on the video expect he did
Ian Strange oh my Aunty Em! Aunty Em!
well the video does not show it. so we do not know, but a) someone was already filming him and b) he was filming the guy who attacked him, I don't hear him mention his piink shirt at all. So it is TYT who are all knowing you you mindlessly believe them lilke a brainless idiot.. I don't know everything but I know more then you are I am rational and not full of speculative shit.
Ian Strange he wore a pink shirt
Because he was wearing a PINK shirt i think but
Attacking over a shirt? Pink is just a color.
***** The first time I met my future wife I was to wear pink so she could find me in the airport.
Not according to Cadbury, as they wanted to trade mark the color purple, but lost.
***** So are black and white. The unintelligent have trouble understanding this.
aa72on because the unintelligent vote for republicans. That and they think tapioca and mayo tastes good together for some reason. And they can go get ebola for all i care.
***** Fun fact, Pink was a MALE color originally, as pink is a bright and bold color.
They brought him down so fast oml
Also “oh. there’s a cop” has me wheezing
"No way your not doing that shit you motherf-ker!" that guy was awesome he don't put up for bullies, neither do I
How do you draw the assumption that someone is gay because of a pink shirt? I can't stop laughing at this guy.
+Alva Strang does anybody remember that Simpsons episode where homers shirt got dyed Pink after the colurs ran in the wash and he had to were it to work and for that he got grilled and put in the cell with the guy hwo thought he was Micheal jackson (it was him for real who did the voice over for that character but he did not want hes name on the end creds)
+Alva Strang That's true. But even if he was gay...how do you come to the conclusion that you should attack him?
+Alva Strang Exactly. And the TSA are to busy sexually assaulting travelers.
I reckon when they start touching you up just start going Mmmm and oh yeah and start faking an orgasm. That would weird them out.
+Reverend Veritas my dad wears pink and I'm here so.....
You are never less of a man for standing up for those in need. Be the help others are looking for.
Wow I counted 6 employees on camera who could have done something but did nothing. As we know they were everywhere, but these 6 heard the conversation. What airport was This?
Also love the fuks you give (say) in this vid.
The guy is obviously drunk and violent. Is the overweight airline employee supposed to slap him for talking shit or something? Whole bunch of people on this youtube channel that have zero understanding of violence.
@Summit X for your knowledge it isn't. Verbal attacks are just that- verbal. Words aren't violence.
Busy going through a two years old's diaper. ..lol
If it was a non-white person... Just imagine the comments.
Boo. Boooo this irrelevant comment. Booooo.
+Bertrand Jean Such a stupid ass, irrelevant thing to say.
+Robert E ^^^ that's a great example of what the comments would be like lol....
+Bertrand Jean
Aww yes, take an issue of homophobia and try to make it into a racist white people thing. Nice.
+Bertrand Jean Absolutely!
l guess Dallas Cowboys can tackle after all.
Only the ones that don't play football . . .
😂
cfapps7865 cowboys had a great O line for a long time
Nice one!👍🏼
cfapps7865 got’em
That man just came out of a bathroom hook up, now he is tortured by his feelings.
yeah and the gays wouldnt even suck his shrimpee
Virgin homophobic dood vs chad cowboy man
How can you expect them to deal with that level of aggression when they're too busy confiscating nail clippers and small bottles of shampoo.
Trump's base right there.
Trump protects the LGBT community.
James Corrigan if they're liposucted and dress nicely
James Corrigan bullshit he does
dfasmilll oh so Trump 'ISNT' a racist, homophobe etc
Nah, he's an 'angel', with a halo and golden wings...
ThePatrioteer no
You see officials or security just walking casually by - some people are apathetic.
At this point it's not even apathy, just straight up ignorance.
“It takes a cowboy” My new motto
He was taken down by a man wearing a cowboy hat, a man wearing a purple shirt, and a black cop, and no one's going to acknowledge the diversity of this intervention team?
Why do people hate pink? It's a fucking awesome color.
Pink, it's my new obsession
Pink, it's not even a question
Pink, on the lips of your lover
'Cause pink is the love you discover
Pink, as the bing on your cherry
Pink, 'cause you are so very
Pink, it's the color of passion
Purple is more my color.
Donald trump voter.
really?...so all conservatives are homophobic. Just like all liberals are lazy and want government money. Your comment is inappropriate and immature.
Homeschool Ramblings No, you've made an incorrect leap of logic. Saying this homophobe voted for Trump doesn't mean all people who voted for Trump are homophobes... Kinda like "just because you voted for Trump doesn't mean you're a racist, but if you are a racist you probably voted for Trump..." You taking offense to this comment is inappropriate and immature (because the person is probably right, if this idiot even bothered to vote at all...)
Homeschool Ramblings Yeah, I agree with the first comment. If you havent noticed lots of Trump staff and voters are not in favour of equality. Sad
Mario l you realize Hillary Clinton lied about the murder of Americans for politcal gain and to hide the fact that she ignored their cries for more help. Not to mention the democratic party was founded to oppress minorities lol. Or that the Republican party had the first minority representatives in it.
Awertonas you probably dont even talk to them just get an opinion from what you see on the internet lol.
Just another day in the life of Trump's Brave New World! 😑
This was before Donald Trump, moron.
How bout u look at the date
Isn't that considered a hate crime?
Mark Damiani. yup!
Yes that is definitely a hate crime and he should be prosecuted to the hilt.
Emerald Virden
Freedom of speech does give you the right to be a absolute dirtbag, so sadly, no it isn't.
Over 70 yearss ago, boys wore pink and girls wore blue, btw.
You can't fool me. Ik everyone wore black and white that long ago.
John Rice COMMENT OF THE DAY 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
in wino veritas YEAH EUROPEANS NOT AFRICANS OR INDIANS.
in wino veritas not true
Kimble Simpson actually yeah, in this country, I believe it was one of the first ladies that popularized pink as a woman's color! Blue was originally the feminine color since it was used to represent the virgin Mary
8 years later and I’m sure the homophobe still hasn’t come out of the closet.
That dudes hillbilly accent says everything about him
He was from TN. He died this past January at 33. Obviously a troubled human being.
Marcus Jones yep
I once in kindergarten shoved a girl because I wanted her attention. Love makes people do crazy things.
Yeah I shanked a guy because I thought he was cute
***** I know right!
funny enough, one of the other guys that took him down was also wearing a pink shirt...
RedroomStudios
Haha yea
You guys are great! And so were those fantastic people helping that man!
Cops doing nothing to help the victim(s) but steps in when the people do their jobs for them.
Hm.
The trouble maker's name is McCleish Christmas Benham. He walked away from the whole incident with a $474 fine and no jail time.
+Bfdidc not like he was black
+Bfdidc Who wouldnt be angry with a name like that?
I love you for this information
His middle name is Christmas? Were his parts shooting up in the delivery room?
Its wearing pink on Wednesday. Obviously this guy has never watched Mean Girls.
The assault on the guy with the pink shirt would never of happened if the security and the police were doing their job.
You would think seeing an aggressive man like that harassing someone in the middle of an airport for wearing a pink shirt, causing a massive scene like that would get security and the police involved pretty quickly to end the conflict.
Expressing homophobia gives a person away as having homosexual tendencies and not being able to deal with them.
He wasn't the only guy in a pink shirt The one that gave him a choke hold had Dora The explorer's shirt on too. 😆
Robert Toe 😂😂😂😂
"if I have pot in my nut sack" IVE BEEN LAUGHING FOR 3 MINUTES STRAIGHT
JBubuD yours has a zipper? Mine doesn't open. Sigh
That was fuckin hilarious
I'm still laughing! Lol
Lol!!!
@Lionel Switch Wrong. There are several states that will convict you for assault and battery or more regardless of the circumstances.
If I were the guy in the pink shirt, I would avoid being close to the drunk guy. Don't further approach him when he walks away.
Avoid escalating the situation and putting yourself at physical risk of harm.
If that homophobe try that in Europe he will finish in hospital bleeding through his ears. Down with homophobia
A pink shirt! REALLY?! I wear pink shirts and T-shirts and I get loads of nice compliments. AND I'M NOT EVEN GAY!
It's as if that guy feels that just having a gay guy in the same line is a strike at his "Manliness" and he needs to fight the guy to keep his "Manliness" in tact.
If you really feel that way strongly, fine, hate the practice not the people! DISCREETLY!
+Cameron Davies Well, probably, being straight helps there. If you're gay and wear a pink shirt, all of a sudden -in the minds of these ignorant fools- you're making a statement, making propaganda for "the gay lifestyle"
I've been harassed for just saying I found some guy handsome. Suddenly I was being "all in their face with my sexuality, of course it's okay to be gay, but you don't have to keep confronting people with it." Of course, if you're straight and say a girl is beautiful, that's a whole different issue... The rules are not the same for stright or LGBT people. We've still got a long way to go.
There are a million straight people that wear pink. I don't see why people are so stupid to even assume that a person wearing a pink shirt is gay.
U know in the 80s u could wear a pink shirt and it was not considered gay. Sad in today's world wearing pink or purple is considered gay. Then again racism is still around so I guess we haven't evolved much since the 60s in the way of being mature and understanding. I blame it partly on how kids were raised and mainly on those kids who chose to follow in their parents foot steps, glad I am able to make my own opinion and not follow in my parents teachings.
***** I believe I just did in my comment
Yea I don't know about that... I was raised in the 80s, and I'm sure if I would have worn a pink shirt, I probably would have been called gay.
Dj Jeff I was to. Guys wore pink all the time, do u not remember Miami Vice . Dude wore a white suit with a pink shirt.
bro, the reason wearing pink seem gay these days is because theres so many gays these days. it's just like how people think males sitting at a park are pedophiles. if people didnt molest children then no one would think someone is a pedophile just because they sit at a park.
yea, i guess you're right. i was a punk rocker, so maybe that's why i made that comment. cheers
WTF? No wonder why I hate going out of the house. The bystanders shouldn't have had to take this guy down. Airports are swimming in cops. I am so glad the bystanders subdued the jerk. Thanks guys. You made my day.
why did it take him kicking the man for something to be done? why didn't someone else call the police, perhaps instead of filming?
"I THOUGHT THIS WAS AMERICA!!!"
- Randy Marsh
Nick Coltrane Thank you Sir...for existing XD fucker sounded just like randy too lmao
Nick Coltrane Ha, ha. That is exactly what I thought too. Fucking perfect.
John Raymond And somewhere there's probably a kid doing a facepalm going " God dammit Dad "
LOL.

Lolol
Wow. That airport security is truly a fucking joke -_-
Exactly... What a total WASTE of money.
Those so-called "airport employees" who stood by and waited until innocent bystanders stepped in should all be FIRED... End of story.
They are a disgrace, not only to the airport as a business institution, but to the entire nation itself.
Naomi Cruz SECURITY!!!! - Screams the Security... D; We're in trouble now.
Wow…he’s rude, disrespectful. Whatever happened to BEING NICE and MINDING YOUR OWN BUSINESS?!?!
Life tip: don’t act like an asshole around someone in a cowboy hat.
Well enjoy the hate crime charge......
nope he got a fine and no jail time.
If this is true and as is told in the story; that's messed up. Somebody must be looking out for him......
In this Dim witted Administration with that racist Elf Sessions around ?
At an airport, smart guy,
Trump will pay for his legal fees.
+Ya Fr lmao
the check would bounce
I am an RN, there was an prison/inmate handcuffed to the bed. He gets out of the cuffs, the 2 prison guards at bedside stand back as he punch a nurse... they stand back. Hospital security rushes in with 45 seconds, rush past the prison guards and tackle, handcuff the inmate.
Mr. Cowboy and company, thank you very much for standing up for a fellow human being in need. Regardless of race, religion, gender, or orientation. Thanks ❤There is still hope for a good world.
if he was black he would have been shot before he got his jacket off, he should consider himself lucky.
i saw that dude at a Trump rally
You went to a Trump rally? XD
he should have hit the shit packer before all the other stuff started he was agging it on
+Donald Gryder Before what other stuff? He hit the man then he was pinned down
Jet Andrade yup! SAW HIM THERE TO protesting with the other Hillary Supporters!
It is a very sad day when one cannot wear a shirt regardless of what color it is and get attacked ! I hope that the man who was attack file a law suit against the air port .
What!? A man wearing pink! I AM SO OFFENDED>:0
Lol
The guy who kicked him seems like most of the people on youtube, angry for no reason not normal and not too bright.
well said
He has to also be completely dumb with all the security watching what did he think would happen after he did that.
As opposed to the raging asshole who started bitching in public?
ScottTheAngel
.You are thinking of Twitter.
Are you 'NORMAL' ScottTheAngel?
Normal people scare me!
Cop is the last one to the pile!
Thank you sisters and brothers of DFW.
Imagine being mad at someone wearing a pink shirt
But clearly racism does not exist anymore in this country...
What the fuck does this have to do with racism
The last quote: "Let me tell you the reason why I did it: Because this is America, that's why. The same reason you get to live and breathe and *walk black*."
Granted, it could be interpreted differently. But what I don't get in that circumstance is why race was even brought up if he wasn't extremely bigoted towards black people and obviously bigoted towards homosexuals.
Racism will always exist, and will probably get worse now with more and more multicultural integration and economic instability.
Ansgar Feicht Multiculturalism and economic instability are not causative of each other. Go travel the world, to Singapore, Malaysia.
The assailant was prejudiced ... against men who wear pink shirts in public.
lol - so he's prejudiced against 1/3rd of the [straight] Mexican immigrants in Lubbock.
Or perhaps against Homer Simpson, because in one episode his white dress shirt had turned pink after it was accidentally washed with red clothes in the laundry machine.
Lol what a brave cop to wait for like 12 people to tackle the guy before pretending to do anything.
It's amazing how people get angry over someone wearing a piece of cloth on their body that emits a spectrum of light that reaches our eyes as a certain color.
Riveting how stupid human beings can be.
wow i didnt know colors had a sexuality
How did you not know that, honestly it's pretty obvious. Blue is male, or female depending on the time period, pink is female, or male also depending on the time period, red is probably male but possibly nobody cares. Purple is also female probably. Green, male. Every other colour is gender fluid. Pretty simple.
+Cameron Hampton Yeah it does. When a baby is born the boy gets blue or the girl gets pink. Simple.
Cameron Hampton There you go. Color identifies your sexuality.
ALEX Jime I sexually identify as beige
ALEX Jime I'm straight as shit and my favorite color is purple. If seeing a dude in a pink shirt makes you want to attack them because you think it's gay then you should start wondering why seeing a gay guy has you so uncomfortable.
I used to play in a band and occassionally we would gig at a gay bar, and dudes would hit on me, and you know what? I didn't get irrationally upset about it. I didn't attack them. I was flattered that they were attracted to me but not interested in doing anything with them. So I'd say, "oh thanks, but you don't need to buy me a drink, I'm straight".
And the world kept turning and I didn't worry that I'd become gay. I'm not sexually attracted to dudes and so if a guy offers to buy me a drink or says I've got beautiful eyes that's fine.
You've got to have SERIOUS issues with your own sexual identity (and I'm not even saying homophobe is secretly a gay self loather). But something, somewhere, is REALLY fucked up if you can't see a dude in a pink shirt and not freak out.
Also unreal that Armed Cops were within ten feet of him - and he STILL started a fight!
Not unreal. Government won't save you, and progressive quota hiring of women and others who can't do the work they were hired for doesn't help the problem.
I’m going to start wearing pink shirts and praying for someone like this to do this to me. Haha
"Can I have the form for the nailclipper?" 😂😂😂
Your average right wing voter right there.
$50 says the dude hailed form tennasee and only acted so overtly antagonistic to the guy he called "faggot" because of that republican passed law about being allwoed to bully gays if it's a deeply held religious beleif:P
Nope, the average right wing voter ensures there is no cameras on them first and no evidence (;
First off, that word "homophobe" really has to go, because it sounds childish and stupid (no wonder it's a favorite word for Ana.) "Homophobe" merely implies fear of gays. The words applicable here are *bigot* and *cowardly thug*, plain and simple. This man's problem is a deep-seated *hatred* (not just fear) of gays and deep-seated cowardice that drives him to act violently against those that he's sure he can overpower, like the smaller person he attacked in this video. He's simply the filth and embarrassment of humanity, and it's only logically obvious that his hatred goes far beyond just gays.
Can you prove he ISN'T afraid of homosexuals?
"Phobia" has a non-clinical usage of describing prejudice, discrimination, and hatred. This should be doubly obvious given the existence of terms like 'xenophobia.' Do yourself a favor and stop playing pointless semantics games, especially since homophobes keep trying to claim they don't 'fear' gay people to try to wash their hands of being labeled for their bigotry without doing anything to change that bigotry.
They should just be called "closets".
SeanTheOriginal Can I prove that *you* are *not* afraid of homosexuals? Does that mean that you are? Can I prove that you are *not* anything that I feel like accusing you of? Does that mean that you are? Are you honestly this goddamn stupid? My point is not that he isn't afraid of homosexuals. My point is that his problem is far *worse* than just fear.

Sean is right, you do not have proof
Just because you don't like gays doesn't mean you're afraid of then as the term homophobe implies.
This is why I don't go anywhere without my firearm. Nor do I trust "authority types" to protect me and mine.
Infuriating as hell.
Not as infuriating as the outcome:
McCleish Christmas Benham of Shelbyville, Tennessee.
$474 fine, NO jail time.
Prior convictions for theft & animal abuse.
Gotta love the American justice system, where violent criminals are allowed to roam free until they actually kill or seriously injure someone.
clearest form of hate crime. Attacking someone because they are gay.
Irony another guy in a pink shirt brought him down the most lol.
The queer man needs to sue the entire air line for them not doing their job,the security guards saw the entire thing and ignored it until it was too late. Terrible,he needs to sue,and the closet case who attacked him and lock him up to drop the soap.
😞 Dang. Even after the homophobe started kicking/hitting the guy and all the other men jumped in, the pink shirt guy still got pinned at the bottom of the tackle with the homophobe on top of him. Even when they were trying to pull him off he was likely still trying to use his weight to pin him, grabbed him up/pinching him, maybe still yelling in his face possibly spitting on him… so sad. I was hoping when I read the title that a cowboy hat wearing dude would’ve just landed one on him and took his lights out. This is so angering!
Edit: I just noticed the pink shirt guy was caught up in the tackle, but was not under the homophobe. My eyes tricked me the first time. You can see his legs dangling on the furthest end. Still though. Sad.
Where IS that bloody form for the finger-nail clipper confiscation?!
It is getting more dangerous to be outwardly queer than it has been in decades - there is a tolerance of intolerance and a blind eye turned everywhere , thankfully there are others who will still step in .
Shmarm 2001 it seems less dangerous
Ethan Hamto maybe it looks that way, but I personally was attacked mugged and beaten severely by a group of young immigrant men, I think it was because I am gay and I know of several other attacks that were obviously gay bashing like I haven't heard about since the 60s. (Usually perpetrators were not born in Canada) I know more then a few gay men who came to Canada with their familys recently and now that they are out they aren't safe from their own family. In some ways and in some places it's way better then the 60s but it's way less safe than 10 or 20 years ago .
I meet a little old lady in Florida a few months ago and she surprised me by bringing it up in conversation. She has friends in Toronto and was worried for me and my boyfriend.
It seems to me from personal experience it's way less safe.
Shmarm 2001 hasn't it always been less safe. Their just wasn't as much media coverage back then.
Ethan Hamto my personal experience has shown me otherwise not the media
I'm guessing you're a religious person-
TSA isn't in the airport to protect taxpayers. TSA is there to protect airlines (at taxpayer expense).
According to the TSA having a waterbottle is more important to deal with than breaking up a fight at the air port
The real tragedy is that there are more humans like this guy out there.
"What do u think i am a bitch?" Tears..nothing but tears of pure joy. That accent completed it.
*security walks by*
"No security here!"
I am very weary of this video. It looks like a show that was put on. I know these things happen all the time but it looks so rehearsed. You made the points yourself. Airports are on edge. There is no way or maybe they are just that blind. Very curious
