Name one. There is no where in this country that such behavior is considered appropriate. You can not legislate away the irrational fears and hatred of some members of our society. JLA

There are still plenty of places in the US where stomping a fag is considered a legitimate and entertaining pastime. Considered legitimate by who? The criminals who commit the assaults may think it's OK, but nobody else thinks it's legitimate, certainly not entertaining.

<<Tell that to the kid who got beaten to death not so long ago. There are still plenty of places in the US where stomping a fag is considered a legitimate and entertaining pastime.>> That was a hideous thing that happened same as the black man who was drug to death in Texas. Then you have the black men, one in NY and the other in Pennsylvania who set out to kill white people. In Illinois and Indiana we have a guy who is bombing Methodist churches. I'm sure we all have attributes that someone who is nuts would kill each of us for. All in all, homosexuals have been accepted into the mainstream in the US of A.

Steven, correct me if I am wrong here. But haven't you been living in the Philippines for the past 20 years? Have you visited the U.S. during that time? I can think of no where in the U.S. where stomping a fag would be considered legitimate and entertaining. At least in a geographic sense. Michael
