Reply #227: Thanks. I really just felt assaulted. [View All]

And in a way I was, because their hate speech was aimed at ME and the people I care about, and I FELT it. Ugh. Spiritual ICK. I just wanted to buy some lip balm and a bus pass and some allergy meds, before going to off to an afternoon book club, y'know? The most mundane of the mundane. And all of a sudden there was this random nasty verbal assault on my very existence, in the name of "god."

FUCK that. And fuck confronting them directly - I don't give a rat's ass about their fucked-up convoluted theological justifications and I don't care to hear it and I don't care to risk myself dealing with it. I just want them to preach their hate in some crappy little cinderblock room somewhere, to all 10 of their buddies who agree with it, and leave the rest of the universe alone.

I'm really glad they were using profanity and sexual slurs loudly in front of children in the middle of the tourist shopping season. If playing that angle up to the cops is what it takes to get them removed, I will exploit that angle freely.
