Look, it's great that you feel so strongly about this, really it is. But I have two points to make. Point number one, most homophobic people never harm anyone because of being gay. VERY few people actually do. Point number two, no matter how hard we try to stop prejudice, it will ALWAYS be there. No matter what.
Sorry, but knowing that there are people who condemn and see me as inferior for what I am ad cannot control harms me. Humans have evolved to care about how others think about them. Just because prejudice is natural and will always occur doesn't mean we shouldn't do all we can to minimise it and it certainly doesn't mean we should tolerate it.
Whats your view on homophobic people

People should be allowed to believe whatever they want, but they should not be allowed to express these beliefs if doing so is likely to harm others.
