Homophobia is still well and alive amongst our society. Why it shouldn't be there are just too many reasons, which we are not going to explore this time. And while the internet can provide a platform to connect us, educate us, and mobilize us, it can also give people the opportunity to spread hateful views. Currently, there are 26 countries around the world that legally recognize same-sex marriage, and not everyone is happy about LGBT becoming a norm.
All across Twitter, Facebook, and even in text messages to family members, people have taken it upon themselves to profess their homophobic views. You can clearly see from these hateful texts, that broader vision and education is what these people need. Well, you can fight fire with fire, or you can take another route. Below is a list from Bored Panda of people who had some pretty hilarious and perfect responses to homophobic comments (I think it's safe to say that George Takei has the best comebacks ever). Scroll down below for all the snapbacks from the fabulous LGBT community!

I’d Say This Is At Least Huge Burn If Not An Assault
Wait a minute, god gave him the son? Someone’s been lying to me all these years.
At least he/she admitted he comes from God and is not some kind of devillish sinner, or unnatural, something
Doesn't that mean that they admitted that God's sometimes an a*****e who gives people "bad" stuff for no reason? I mean, there's Bible precedent, but Christians don't normally admit it!

Interviews of Magic showing his love and pride for AJ have moved me to tears. He let's the world know he is unquestionably AJ's #1 fan, and his love and support gave him the freedom to excel in his passions. They have a beautiful love
I despise such people. Do you love your child because it's your child, or because it meets expectations?
A really old piece of advice is from my mom and I’m sure many others’ moms, and applies to the troll: if you have nothing good to say, don’t say anything. And a more current one: is it true? is it kind? Is it necessary? if it fails any of those questions, don’t say it.
Why are some people so rude and crude? Perhaps because they are behind the safety of the computers? I bet they wouldn't have the balls to say this to Magic's face!
Magic Johnson has 2 sons and EJ doesn’t have a fashion line. But still sick burn I guess 🤷♀️
BAAAAAANG!!! Ja want some salve for that burn???? Oh, no! NO SALVE IS GONNA HELP THAT!!!
I don't believe Magic and his wife need any sympathy from you or anyone else. Yes, the first time I saw AN i was stunned. But, guess what, his life, his decision and regardless, his family loves him.
U r a boss. The world is so luck to have people like u in this world!
I think I'd have a problem if my kid was a matador. That's kind of dangerous.
DON;T UNDERSTAND HOW PEOPLE PICK A CHOOSE WHAT'S WRONG AN RIGHT GOD MADE US ALL DIFFERENT. FOR A REASON WHAT SHOULD HE DISOWN HIS CHILD CAUSE HE GAY I TOLD MY DAUGHTER I LOVE HER AN THAT BETWEEN HER AN GOD. I WONT BE THERE WHERE SHE CLOSE HER BEDROOM DOOR NOR WILL I BE THERE WHEN SHE MEET GOD AN I LOVE HER FOR WHO SHE IS AN PROUD OF HER.WHICH WAS DOING BETTER THINGS WITH HER LIFE AFTER SCHOOL BASKETBALL SHE JUST STOP TRYING. BUT I TRUST AN BELIEVE SHE WILL GET HER SELF BACK ON TRACK.
damn skippy! I bet he loves his child as much if not more then you do yours.
well, he has the best of both worlds then, and for your information, you pick your own parents, not God.
Ohhh, they’re going to need a lot more than aloe for that burn, maybe a skin graft...😄
I would have written "He got a son with his own fashion line worth over $200M. God seems really loves Magic"
"...his own fashion line worth over $200,000,000"?? Where is THAT shown to be the case?
he will never be borde with his son.. he will always be open to new ideas.. lucky man!
Yes sick burn! A boy born into massive wealth and with ample connections through his parents has a successful business.

A Burn Of Biblical Proportions
Boring legal details: in the US, marriage is a secular matter. A marriage license is filed with the state in which the marriage occurred. The person who signs the marriage license must be recognized by the state as authorized to do so. That person might be a judge, a magistrate, or a religious cleric. Legalizing gay marriage only means that two persons of the same gender may be married by a person authorized by the state to do so, the state will recognize that union as valid. At no point are religious institutions informed by the US government that they must perform gay marriages, approve of gay marriages, or recognize gay marriages. If you don't approve of gay marriage, then don't get gay married!

I Wonder Why
There Is Nothing Wrong With Being Gay
This joke only refers to UK political issues. It is joking about the fact that there are a lot of people who currently loathe the UK Conservative party policies so much that admitting you voted tory at the last election could possibly be social death. Saying you are gay would not be. It isn't a serious point. Just explaining
Just For Being Gay
Hopefully Not You
It is a bit of both like it is not like all of us are going to be gay and suddenly no one is producing babies!

Father Of Maybelline’s First Male Model Shuts Up Homophobic A**hole With Brilliant Response
This is not about the way you rise your kids. Or I wouldn't be bi while my sisters are straight. And it's not about the people you meet or the fact that you see LGBT on tv shows! I grew up in a time LGBT representation was non existent or wrong, and I didn't know anyone that was openly LGBT. Nothing "turn you gay", or straight BTW. The only thing it should be about, is about loving yourr kids, caring for them and show them they can trust in your love.

Who Is Suffering Here
I will never understand why someone feels like it their job to decided how God feels. I dont care what the bible says. The God i worship loves everyone and wants you to treat everyone with kindness. Maybe i misinterpret it wrong but i know i feel better living this way.

When Campbell’s Ad With Gay Dads Received A Lot Of Homophobic Comments, Mike Melgaard Created A Facebook Page "Campbells For Help" To Respond To Those Complaints
I find it strange that people say having two dads or two mums is wrong. My parents are divorced so I have two dads and two mums. I don't consider them 'step' parents because they raised me as much as my birth parents. I have always told people I have two of each, it's a fact I am really proud of.
Straight Men
Why Snowmen Don't Talk?
And let's not forget all the gay kids who grow up seeing only heterosexuality.. We're still gay. Seeing only straight people represented didn't turn us straight. And it would be awful nice for all kids to feel valid and supported, don't you think?

I notice that a great deal of homophobes are also atrociously bad at spelling.
There are many symptoms of sheer stupidity. Homophobia and poor writing skills are just two of them.

No offence but Christianity is un-natural and encouraged by being around older Christians - Maybe thats where they get their phobias regarding gay people being around their children
I'm Christian, but I'm part of the LGBTQ+ community. My church supports it as well. Not all Christians are homophobic.

Why do people think of hetero relationships like snuggles or whatever, while they think of gay sex when the LGBTQ+ community is brought up?
Because the LGBTQIA+ community is over sexulised and most of the info people get on it is from Pornhub

Hear me out, god made animals right? Some animals are gay, some animals can change their gender, some animals are bi, wouldn’t that make god lgbtq friendly? humans are the only ones who practice homophobia
LOVE it, and love George Takei's hilarious responses. I have NO IDEA why homophobes even think they have any right to infringe on and abuse others, who clearly have no effect in their life. Sickening. And extremely selfish. Not to mention - the reason why so many people turn away from God.
What can I say to someone that told me that they will disown me if I were their cild and I were gay?
JSYK, I looked in the comments for trolls and homophobes and If I found one, I shook my head in disapproval.
Great reading, it made me feel happy and angry! Thanks for making people even more aware

Eventually with a lot of teasing from him i said yes to him.. Months later i loved him to an extent that if I didn't see him or hear from him a day i could die!. As time goes on we began to plan for our wedding,.. 5 years after our wedding strange things begin to happen...l become suspicious that my husband is cheating on me,To cut the long story short, he was planning to travel with another girl to california and get married there ..I got angry and i confronted him to my surprise he didn't deny it.

''Homophobe'' is anyone not agreeing with the gay marriage people. What used to be a word for a legitimate problem is now an insult to hurl at political opponents. What a biased site this is.
...Someone not agreeing? with it? gay marriage is not an argument to be won it's peoples RIGHTS! Something that heterosexuals have had for years. Also, The definition of Homophobe is 'a person with a dislike of or prejudice against homosexual people' Sooo it's not disagreeing its hating on someone because of something they can't change... (: Have a good day.

I don't call this a phobia from something I call this a normal rejection to the abnormal that's it and I'm free to reject it as well as they are free to be like that you the LGBT community and their supporters are making straight people look abnormal now lol It's rude like you break into a building and you kick it's inhabits out they are absolutely generous to let you in that building from the beginning
Because it's tough to get along with someone saying "F**k you for being gay!"

Except that "gay behaviour" is in no way harmful and is entirely personal while Christianity has always had an interest in getting into other people's business. I'm sorry, but equivocating the two makes me literally physically ill.
