Someone's had enough of the hot weather

[Beso]

This happened in the local park of my little random town. It has benches named after people, donated by the deceased families. They havnt been painted over yet.

But this is what a young lesbian(fact) girl did on the path next to the play area.

This black bench has been painted white by far right racists

[Benjamin]

The bench was clearly not even to do with pride, and it’s pretty obvious from the plaque. Hard to see on the image below but it’s the ‘Happy to Chat’ bench (you can see the plaque better online in images, I couldn’t get one to upload clearly on here).

The vandals are either just really thick (and unable to read) thinking it was pride or are just pointless vandals.

Either way, not sure what they achieved with it. Hope it made them feel better about themselves when they went back to their pointless lives afterwards.

Its proven that homophobes have lower levels of cognitive intelligence, so I imagine it's this.

not being funny, but benches are vandalised, sprayed with graffiti every single day. I'm talking about memorial benches all over the country. Where is the outrage for that?

True, the worst are the ones dedicated to someone who has passed ...

Gay people need to take it in turns to sleep on the bench to protect the rainbow

Has nothing to do with Pride. I thought it was made pretty clear in the thread…

It’s everyone’s job to protect the rainbow.

For further clarity for you, a pride rainbow has six colours whereas a run of the mill rainbow has 7.

I guess the hetero that did this, missed the memo.

They are benches that have a sign which helps promote strangers talking to one another. If you’re a lonely old man and you sit on one people would know you’re wanting. A conversation, or at least don’t parking in one, and are more likely to talk to you. It’s just a way to try and get strangers to converse with one another. If you’re someone who doesn’t see many people all day one single conversation could mean the world.

the images show a bench that is pre painting at the bottom and one that has been painted at the top

not painted over

not even the same bench

As stated previously the bench with the rainbow on isn’t the exact same bench but is the same TYPE of bench and was used for illustrative purposes.

Remember guys, it’s not a pride bench. Y’all allowed to be outraged about this public vandalism

[Glenn.]

Didn’t the thread about a statue of thatcher being egged get bumped today? Reading through that, public vandalism is frowned upon by certain members. I wonder why this hasn’t received the same condemnation.

You can't equate the glory of Maggie, and het statue to some mouldy old bird shot splatters park bench in some back end hell hole.


Unless you're on TIBB, obviously.

The bat probably made it a hell hole.

It should do imo.

Vandalism is always a bad thing to do.

If someone took the time to paint over a rainbow bench, what a sad, angry, homophobic, pathetic little person that must be. Obviously, if it was a Muslim, then, it won't be homophobic and they have every right to do that because... Palestine.

Why must it always be about race or religion? Nobody has said the above, nobody is claiming that Muslims can't be homophobic.

Newsflash: you can be against mass bombings/murder of a countries civilians even if the laws and religions in those countries condemn your way of life. It's called thinking of others.

In the same way I would condemn it if Hungary or Poland, two pretty staunch non-muslim EU anti-LGBT countries, were subject to mass bombings with thousands of civilians killed.

Just because a countries values condemn me, it doesn't mean I support its civilians being murdered. Sheesh.

It amuses me that allowances can be made for cultures that would hang gays but no allowances can be made for white people being ugly homophobes.

Over the last ten years Jewish graves have been desecrated, headstones smashed or daubed with swastikas. Jewish graves in the UK, London, Manchester, Kent, Belfast.... I mean... When this was mentioned before I remember being told by one of TiBB's gay community that it was probably just high spirits. So forgive me if I don't get bent out of shape over a bench being painted over nor spend any more time watching you go on a crusade to support an inherently homophobic religion.

Not wanting something to be bombed to death doesn't equal = allowance. If that is your view on "giving allowances" then I don't know what to say. I've literally just used two mostly-white, non-muslim countries as examples of countries that condemn my way or life yet I would still be against mass murder towards its civilians? Where have I given allowances to one culture but not another?

Many Islamic values, IMO, are gross, often sexist and homophobic. I've said this before.

As I've said before, you seem obsessed with trying to stir up hatred toward certain ethnicities, it's extremely disconcerting.
