In some ways, the guy was asking for it. Pink armor, pink logo, and the name xxxGayBoyxxx. What the hell did he expect to happen over an anonymous voice chat system populated by teenaged boys? He was playing up every gay stereotype with his armor, colors, and name.

If I play as a character with dark skin and curly hair, am I asking to be called a "ni**er" or "ka**ir?" Don't blame the victim.

No, but one has to accept reality and realize that pink armor, pink coloring, and the tag GayGamer is not going to go over well online. If he wants to ride through it and deal, so be it. More power to him. But to do it and then complain is just silly, he should have known that was going to happen.

If you don't want to deal with stupidity, don't provoke it. 

And if you don't want to be fired or harassed, don't come out of the closet. Don't be who you are. Don't provoke the hateful, small-minded lunatics.

Your attitude towards this is sickening. I half-expect this sort of crap from most of the people around here, but you're one of the members I genuinely respect.

Um, not even close to the same thing. The internet is chock full of idiots with no fear of repercussion for their actions. Getting fired from work is just a little different than teenagers mocking you online.

And before you climb back up on that high horse, my brother is gay so I'm pretty sure I've had to deal with this kind of crap more than you.

The kid used gay stereotypes to provoke hate, in fact, he's just as bad as they are.

So's mine. Small world, huh? I hope he listens to your advice and hides who is at every opportunity. Don't want to provoke anyone, after all.  What does he expect, honestly, running around all gay like that.

Meh, it's Halo, more retarded than the Counter Strike community, and that's saying a LOT.

However, the name and the armor is just like walking into a dog kennel with slabs of meat all over your body.

The correct answer to this problem is griefing.

So a gay man who lisps is just as bad as the people who harass him? The hate would have been there regardless.

That is truly, truly disgusting.

I think SOCOM is up on that list. Those people can get really mad.

FACT: The worlds major religeons condem gay bahavior. Christian, Islam, Hindu, Judaism and i am sure there are many others.

These groups make up the majority of the world population. Many, Many people find gay bahavior to be morally wrong and/or offensive. Why should people have to be confronted with things they find morally wrong? And why do people find a need to flaunt their sexuality?

That is reality.

This is not about a real gay man in real life. This is about an alias who used gay stereotypes to provoke hate. This has nothing to do with an actually gay person at all. In fact, we don't hear him at all, just the responses of others. Look, im not saying that what some of the XBOX live community had said was just, im just saying that his actions don't help.
