"fucking faggot!" as verbal abuse: do you keep on walkin like nothing happened or you pop his lip open?

A cute guy with nice jeans pants&jacket ofa very interesting dark blue. He was young tall enough and slim ; his body from the neck down pull out a nice suedXor (never seen a suedXor with short curly hairs).

This lasted 1 sec :
He looked like his feelings were hurt but he kept his dignity intact, was walking fast.
So I had this outlook inspired by a vice column "ask a 'mo" where the guy said 'moes are always drunk because they always get dumped haha
So I said to myself he got dumped by his boyfriend over his cellphone haha. half-subconsciously smiled and nod @ him because I'm friendly and I wouldn't be surprised if he was friend of an old friend of mine.

Then 4 jocks rushed out of the same place with hateful expressions on their faces: one of him yelled "Hostie d'tapette" (fucking faggot) . I snapped and (forgetting chomsky)yelled: YOU DON'T HAVE THE RIGHT TO SAY THIS! (one said "not you, the other guy behind...")
I got the whole picture immidiately, see? They harrassed the poor guy to drive him out of there and now they were following him on the stret to continue their abuse but I happened to walk to be right in the middle of them. Guess the response of the emminem clone: so you are a faggot too then!?

I said no but these are words of violence and it is intolerable.
they were walking towards me but I was pumped I flip them the index.
The clone pushed me I pushed him back and I was not impressed
He swinged at me
I dodged easyly and punched him in da face
I know a bit of kung-fu and other martial arts but it was the first
time of my life I got in a fight. I don't care about martial arts
and violence. anyway there was this other guy who looked very clever (probably a level 2 tech or an admin) he was faking to sparate me from the little poser /messin around to find a compromise to save their pride / shoo me away wich I was doing already / pushing me too, being 2 against me...
He had a clever put-down line he said to me "run away, forrest!"
It's really sad when clever chaps are homophobes, you just giveup on reasonning with them. anyway the clone kept pushing me , had another swing that I dodged then I pop his lip open. the clever one was pushing me harder now, I said to him " if you are trying to be helpfull why don't you hold him back?" (like, was I fighting them both or what?) they kind of stop , I yelled (in french): " I shot one fist in his fucking face and now he shuts the fuck up!" (eurrggghh)he flip me the middle finger when I continued to walk away. Also I yelled at them" VIOLENCE IS NOT COOL!!!"

like, 4 vs 1 and the hegemon prevailed. Just call me the Vigilante.

I,m gonna be sick now.

It's possible the young emminem clone was acting out the fag basher routine because he was questionning his own orientation and his insightful friend, eaven willfully homophobe , knew this too and was alarmed that my intervention @ his friend might provoke an existential questionning that might drive him out of the suburb breeder routine they had planned out for themselves : the 2 dudes being bungalow neighbors etc. because he's queer too! as in everyone is bisexual..

on another note I hate it when clever bastards upgrade their discourses by using recontextualized words that they use as a shield to commit their abuses: if confronted about it they can always play it like it's just street wise irony! Whaa? you don't get it!? We always talk like that. I'm not being a sour puss here, I'm talking about the kind of joke that backs up world views like that : "homoes are okay, as long as they don't come near me. if so, they might well just be shot dead." heard that a couple of time at work.
