Is this really Homophobic?

I am not religious and WTF is a furry? 

I agree with you

and what CNN did is what you are accusing me of doing, the only difference is I don't have a news show and camera to report speculation to the whole world.  They don't have the facts and they assumed, along with the victims, that this was because they were lesbians and it was homophobia, which doesn't make any sense.  The news makes me mad when they assume things without all the facts, and all the victims are getting their 15 minutes of fame only because they are gay.  These girls are now always going to think that they were targeted because they were lesbians, and it had nothing to do with the possibility that assailants were out to rob someone, if not them, it would probably be someone else.  Again, both are speculation.

So you are condemning me for doing the exact same thing that CNN just did.  All I am doing is stating what else it could be, but we just don't know. I don't see you condemning CNN. 

As of right now, it is not even news because the facts are these women were beaten up and robbed... which happens to many people every day, and none of them get reported.

The only reason this made the news is because they are gay women and CNN chose to assume that is the reason.  Would you disagree with that as well?   

Do homophobes ask the people that they fear or dislike  to continue to do the actual thing that they fear and dislike, in this case kiss each other, and talk to them about different sexual positions?  No, a homophobe would tell them to stop doing it, then beat them up for not complying, but apparently these assailants liked what the lesbians were doing, and wanted them to continue, which is not homophobia. 

On societal norms, I guarantee that if you were brought up during slavery (assuming you are white), during a time that there was no uprising against it, you would not question it.  To this day, you think you would, and you hope you would..... Would  you be the advocate to end slavery, be put in the history books for doing so? 

Do you see anyone from the South in the history books for doing so?  The truth is, you wouldn't even realize how wrong slavery is if you were brought up in that era, because you were taught that way.  Even if you were against it, you wouldn't have spoken out because you would have been condemned for it.

 I have no problems with men kissing.

but CNN reported homophobia as fact.

It was not even a question that it might not be, and I am basing this on the facts that we do have, and the victims account of what happened.

The banner on the video says exactly that.  Did you watch the video?

"Women beaten and robbed in homophobic attack in London."  It says it almost throughout the whole video, then it switches to.... London Mayor calls Homophobic Attack Disgusting, Misogynistic.

A better question is where doesn't it say it is homophobic?

And yes, I agree with you that CNN and I are speculating on this story. However, I would not have heard about it if they had not reported it, just like most robbery assaults, but they spun it to get clicks... which I agree with you on that as well.  This need for clicks is causing a serious division of people.

BTW, I think the same about Fox, they pick and choose what they feel is newsworthy.  I am not married to any news network, I do think that the 24 hour news cycle is the enemy of the people.  They manipulate the stories to support their agenda, and some don't even care about money, but they still care about clicks.

What I am saying is I wouldn't pay to see two men kiss, but I might pay to see two women kiss.  It's a turn on, just like it is for most straight men. 

Would you say that most gay men and women think that men kissing is a turn on to them, I wouldn't know because I am neither of those?

Based on my experience though and women I have befriended, I would think that most would say no, also based on the supply and demand for it. I'm just stating the obvious. I can count on probably two hands the amount of major motion pictures that have men kissing in them, but the amount of women kissing women would be way more... you know why?  To sell tickets.

I do think that many homosexuals were abused as children, or sustained some sort of trauma that affected their sexual preference, or they could have some mental issues.  I also believe some of them were actually born that way, so I don't condemn it, and I don't feel ill of it.  

I think your understanding of what "big government" is would be somewhat biased.  Liberalism, even in "American Liberalism" searches for equality, and the only real apparatus to enforce that is government.

It wasn't liberals or moderates that are against gay rights, abortion, legalization of the sex trade, etc etc etc.

If they wanted ultimate equality, they would be socialists, since that would mean everyone gets paid the same.  

As for abortion, they ought to be against abortion/pro life because of the scientific proof that confirms that a fetus is a human being.

Prostitution can be regulated, but not full blown legal.  Prostitutes must be on 100% effective birth control(99.9999% is also fine, but nothing less).  

I am not wrong, George Soros would rather print fake news against Trump than be real and make money, he has so much money, he doesn't care.  If the Washington Post printed something in favor of Trump, he would be on the phone wondering what the F they were doing.  Right now CNN is losing viewership because people don't trust what they are spewing, yet they keep spewing it... so they don't care either.  Neither did ESPN for the longest time, owned by Disney, but finally wised up and does their best to stay out of politics now.  Thank God... More channels should follow their lead.

It is a generalization, but it is true.... I did a poll.

How do you know this, do you have evidence to support this claim?  I think the opposite, so it looks like we are at a stalemate on that issue.

Here is CNN Ratings...https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/cnns-ratings-drop-again-after-three-year-low-last-month

Sorry, I meant Jeff Bezos.  I made a mistake.  He would not approve of any good reporting of Trump.  Almost 95% of the reporting on Trump on any news outlet besides Fox has been negative, even when he does something good, it is twisted into something bad.  

I was just pulling your leg.  Man we are gulible aren't we.

I am not trying to be a prick, you are trying to be a prick by not realizing things that are common sense and acknowledging aspects of human nature that are learned as life goes on, you lose people, you have friends that admit things to you in their older years that you didn't know about, and learn how it affected them, things you don't find in written papers.

Then you calling me stupid for having experience.

These are things that are learned over time.  Reading articles, doing papers, having friends, family, stories told to you, jobs, careers, college (which was really just an extension of being a kid)  I have learned so much more by being out in the real world than I did when I was in college... just being on this earth twice as long as you, and being an adult for 22 years as opposed to your 1 year, owning a house, having real relationships, moving around to different areas, changing careers.  You don't think that has any clout?

Do you know more?  Really?  Because I made a statement that you contradict, or disagree with, then you want me to show proof.  Why don't you show proof that it is not true. 

I have read these things in certain places throughout my life and certain times.  I don't feel like spending the time to research where I saw them, or where I read them.  

You are right, citations would be nice, but so would a vacation, unfortunately, I'm not getting either of them.
