On the other hand whenever a gay person is killed in the US a finger is pointed at the culture of it being okay to intimidate and say threatening things to/about gays. In some ways it is disproportionate, on the other hand I think that people ought to stop and think about what they are saying. It is something I learned at an early age, never point a gun at anyone, even in jest, and never joke about shooting anyone. "Never, never let your gun, pointed be at anyone..." and all the rest.
