Quote:

This sort of respect is what a lot of people search for in our day; the male macho character that most males portray in our world is a direct outcome of the belief that when people fear you they respect you. Its no wonder homophobia and violence are sure to follow in cases where  people are beaten, embarrassed in front of people, bullied, hated and not given anything but resentful attention, that this sort of violence becomes a possibility. Have you been to a high school? Remember how horrible some kids got singled out and treated? Resented, bullied, embarrassed in front of people. Our system of life is to blame for this atrocity. An atrocity we will never put to rest because the killer is silent, has no legs and wears no face, a belief in fear as respect and love, a silent belief mixing with the persons experience of being embarassed harrassed and mentally tortured that causes this.
