" But Tomorrow I Will Be Sober, And You Will Still Be a Fool"

[ReluctantDebutant]

She is a bad person. Repeat, a BAD PERSON. :Angry3:

Anyone who would try to humiliate another person in public without a good reason is a BAD PERSON.

Let's say someone is out in public with a deformity, missing limb, etc. Is it ever appropriate to make fun of or try to embarass that person? Would it ever be appropriate to walk up to a severely overweight person and say out loud "Why are you so fat?"

If you think it, fine, there's no hope for you. Just learn to keep your negative thoughts to yourself.

I would agree that this woman is bad if she had shouted "freak", "pervert", or somethingelse to that effect to Lorileah. This woman's reaction sounded as if it was coming more from amusement which in my book is 100 X better then a reaction coming from disgust or hate. And it doesn't seem that this interaction lasted any longer then that intial reaction. So if there is more to this story that you are privy to and that I am not please tell me. My sympathy goes out to Lorileah. Despite a possible intent Lorileah's feelings were hurt. But isn't more positive to believe that this woman acted out ignorance rather from hate. I was giving reasons why this woman was ignorant and why she might react with amusment.

But no you are right it is being more positive to support the idea that Lorileah has a rabid, right-wing, "fundi", anticross-dressing hater, not only in her neighborhood but shops at her grocery store. No again you are right it is being more positive to bash a woman none of us know.
