    Wow. RT @renatomoya: @aral What if the guy had a traumatic experience with a gay guy? Wouldn’t you donate $1000?

        @aral That reply from @renatomoya is so offensive I find it hilarious, because I thought people couldn’t stoop lower.

        @teddyrised @aral Wow, wait! I didn't mean to offend anyone. I'm just trying to look further than just saying the guy is homophobic.

        @aral @renatomoya So… if I had a fight with someone of African-American descent, my support for KKK is justified? #shit

        @renatomoya @aral “wondering why” is a horrible excuse for an insensitive tweet. Just saying.

        @aral @renatomoya makes sense. If you've had a traumatic experience with a straight guy you'd want to donate to stop straight rights. right?

        @aral @renatomoya I've had abusive and scary experiences with straight people, but I don't think they should be denied human rights.
