if he said "faggot" "faggot" "faggot" "faggot" "gay homosexual faggot" "gay fat homosexual queer faggot" then yeah, I'd assume that he's homophobic too. If his intention was to be offensive, wouldn't that mean that he wants people to think he's racist?

Shock value. The shock value doesn't come from what people think of him but from the mere mentioning of a taboo word. And he was pretty much in a rage so I doubt there was a lot of any intention behind his words.

I just don't like the instant witch hunts as soon as someone says something naughty. People love to instantly stick labels based on buzzwords completely ignoring what's behind those words, which is most often simple stupidity.

Think of the actual hard working racists and homophobes how they must feel when suddenly everyone is labeled as them despite not having any intentions behind their words.

No intentions behind their words? But you just said that he was trying to say the most offensive thing that he could think of. So, it sounds like his intention was to offend people, and offend people he did.
