I now consider it an important thing given that many on the right do not believe such behavior occurs.

I’m afraid to say that a substantial proportion believe it, and thoroughly approve of it. Only a few have the honesty to say so though.
Most on the right know of it, and disapprove of it. A substantial majority of those can “understand how it can happen” though.
Some of the right, well, there’s none so blind as those who will not see. They see themselves as victims of liberal persecution (with some justice) and such bullying doesn’t fit their world-view. So it must be a lie.
And a few think that it’s a good thing, and if they had their way, would want more violence, not less, to prove their piety. Yet even they don’t say so in public, not usually.
Tell me I’m wrong.
It’s all so very, very human. Very few of even the most violent are monsters, just… misled. Most are reachable. We have to believe that, you and I, don’t we?
Now If I was to do a similar taxonomy of Gay Activists, I’d be here all day. There’s the lustful, the spiteful, the deceitful, the vain, the majority who are just plain damaged and fearful as a kicked pup or a battered spouse, the professional stirrers who have found this the new cause du jour … as I said, I could be here all day.
The thing is… the majority of those involved in the DOS, the great bulk, are not gay. They don’t even understand gays. But they do understand injustice when they see it. I think this generation is better than ours. Better than mine, anyway, and we weren’t so bad, really.
