"Take it, queer-boy!" A story of the Heretic being physically assaulted.

I'm truly sorry. That's horrible . Hope you heal soon. I hope that you don't get the permanent scar on your lips. There are some products that can help with that, and I think it helps to try to avoid the sun. I had huge cut on my nose, but I was hospitalized and avoided the sun, and it's unnoticeable, while when it happened when I was a kid, it was hugely noticeable because I went in the sun. Anyways, scars tend to look good on guys but I'm just thinking it's better not there because it might bring back the memory.

It is, with a hint of pride, I must admit, that I state that I want to remember this. Just so in thirty years when my grandchildren ask me, "grand-daddy, how'd you get that scar?" I can reply "Because I supported people who were being discriminated against."

That's something these assholes probably never realized. Yeah. It hurts like a motherfucker. But it vindicates my stance. If they were trying to make me afraid, they failed. I'm shaken up, but I'm not deterred. I'm going to send an email to the shirt-makers, tell them what happened, and ask if they can possibly spare a replacement. As for the now-tattered shirt...I'm going to hang it up on my wall.

I admire that and respect it immensely.
