Was anyone else disturbed by this scene?

I didnt find that scene apalling. I don't know really what to think about it. Those people were there to see fights and they got something totally different. Were all those people really shocked or were they in on the joke; or were some of them in and others weren't. I would think if that happens for real those in charge would step in and put a stop to it.

I'm not reading your manifesto, keep your damn posts short!

That scene just goes to show what babies people are. They were acting like tough guy rednecks, but their delicate sensibilities can't handle seeing two men kissing? Also, they should have been able to tell that it was a staged joke anyway.

That scene was hilarious!

At no point was anyone's life in any danger. Just a bunch of angry people with hilarious reactions. It really made me lol.

I think you guys need to lighten up a little. You're so wound up in your own 'open-mindedness' that you can't even see the humour in it.

Yeah it's the 21st century yada yada yada. We're all so enlightened and liberated and all that. But you have to realise not everyone is not going to see things the same way as you. Not everyone had the same education and upbringing.

In fact, the vast majority of the world is homophobic - think about the Arab world, sub Saharan Africa, Latin America, most of Asia... Only Europe and parts of North America have only just started to change their views on things.

It's going to take the rest all a long time to catch up, and you can't force your own beliefs upon them. That's just wrong. That's almost like appointing yourself the world 'thought police', who decide what thinking is right and what's wrong. You have to wait for others to figure it out for themselves - otherwise it will never be a real change and will only be met with internal resistance and reactionism. Think about how long it took Europe, etc. to get to this stage.

Now if you go about calling people 'uneducated morons' and being oh-so self righteous and holier than thou about your superior way of thinking, and about how they are all juvenile and savage, perhaps insulting their religious or cultural beliefs on the way, it only makes you look pathetic.

If you really were intelligent and tolerant, then you would give others the benefit of the doubt, realising that they may not have had the same education and conditiong you did, and that this is something outside of their control. So quit being so judgemental - it doesn't actually help at all. Try and actually foster some of that 'open-mindedness' and 'tolerance' in yourself, and be patient with others, and not mock and deride them just to make your own insecure self look bigger. :)

I think everyone here is missing something, and that is that flying chairs is probably standard and what makes the event for these audiences no matter what happens onstage. Wrong guy wins fight, chairs fly. Guy looks cross-eyed at audience, chairs fly. Fight ends too soon, chairs fly.

Please put some dashes above your sig line so I won't think it's part of your dumb post.

Yeah, those kind of trashy white people scare me.

The ones that are well behaved aren't that bad but thats the main reason I would never step foot in 'remote' America or the South in general.

What can you expect from a room full of homo-repressed white trash?

It's a sad thing that your adventures have ended here
