And again had a Jewish journalist stated an attack on a synagogue was anti Semitic would you be saying he wasn't seeing the 'big picture'?
If there was a bigger picture, yes.
No one is saying it wasn't an attack on gay people.
Islamic terrorists attack anyone different who have freedoms they don't think they should have or believe something they think wrong.
They don't attack gay people in isolation, they attack anyone who they consider an outsider who doesn't live by their laws.
They don't attack Jews in isolation either.
Or Christians.
Most of the terrorists appear to be anti women, anti Jewish, anti Christian, anti ( insert any religion other than their brand of Islam) anti western society, anti trade, anti commercialism, anti music, anti pictures.
In fact they seem to be anti Muslim if another Muslim tries to build bridges with " the infidels"
If you stand back and look ...... They are anti just about everything.......
They are a pain in the arse.
Hence the reporters talking about the bigger picture.
Turning around and saying someone can't understand because they arn't gay is rude and untrue.
It's called empathy, and it's insulting to imply someone cannot understand it, they can.
Someone can understand what it must have been like to be a slave, you don't
have to be black. Some black people use that argument too, that white people don't understand what being a slave was like or the concept of prejudice against black people.
All too often that one is used to create divisions instead of building bridges.
He insulted people by turning round and telling them they couldn't understand because they weren't gay.
That's bollocks!
Yes you can understand what's it's like to be disapproved of and not recognised to be in fear of being bullied and picked on.
It's called empathy.
It would be better if there was more empathy with people who are gay, not less.
If people who arn't gay can't understand anyway, what's the point?
Where was he going with that one?
