Here's the scenario: A gay person and his partner are talking about getting married in a public place. You are nearby and hear a couple of straight people verbally condemning and bullying them. What would you do/say?

I would tell them to get a life and to leave that couple alone. It's wrong to bully anyone for any reason. I believe that everyone needs to stand up for other people.

Thank you LilyoftheThorns! It is wrong to bully or condemn them. I hope more people would do the same. People are people, no matter what their preference.

This is the kind of question that my answer has to be, I wish I could say I would intervene and tell them they are not hurting you, so why don't you leave them alone, or mind your own business. but I know I wouldn't. to those immature individuals, I would either look gay or who knows, there's two of them and only one of me.

Thank you marty3888. There are 2 of them but also 2 gay people. Chances are, since it's in a public place, the bullies wouldn't get physical. Thank you for contributing to the post!
