People have their own opinions, and I can't label them right or wrong. I don't think negatively about a person who I hear says anything negative about homosexuals/bisexuals/LGBT community in general. They're obligated to share their opinion as much as I do. I generally don't say anything because it's their opinion. Who am I to question it?

Yes it is their right to say their personal opinion but when that opinion is hurting an entire community of innocent people who have done nothing wrong and possibly influencing younger generations to grow up and say the same things, then the right thing to do is to try to put a stop to it or possibly even change their mind. We can't get rid of all the negativity in the world, but we can get rid of a good amount of it if people would just care to try. Imagine if one of those homophobes grew up and got a career in government, and was in the position to pass a law that discriminated against the LGBT community? That's no longer just words but actions that actually physically affect people's lives.
