While this conversation is really neither here nor there, keep in mind that your wording borders on offensive.

I'm sure you and SEspider mean well, and I agree that hateful speech online is something extremely common, but it's also something you shouldn't take too seriously. Not that I'm defending somebody that does says such things, but I find it odd how you two are approaching levels just as offensive (albeit subtly) as the ones you decry. Maybe it's just the poor word choice, but don't imply that a homosexual lifestyle is a choice.
