      i would disagree because these are the celebrities that younger ppl look up to.. and the average person tries to emulate their style/wardrobe/mannerisms etc.. now, if id emulate someone like Diddy, Biggie, Dr Dre, Aaron Hernandez, tyrese gibson etc.. id like to know that i wont be emulating a homosexual.. those guys play the role of an alpha, but in reality.....

      @@ynoter being gay shouldn't be a selling point, though. you should like them for their personality, not their sexuality unless you want to like them just for that. sometimes being gay is something people want to hide.
      now, sexuality is talked about a lot...but still, it shouldn't control everything.

      but alot of ppl emulate them because they think its cool and think that what ever they wear, how they talk, etc.. is "in" nowadays.. and if you rocking what these famous celebs are rocking your sex appeal points skyrocket in the dating marketplace.. thatss why you see the typical "fuckboy" wear skinny jeans and some of them with dyed hair..

      spawnjg The only cases of physical violence that I personally know of against gay people, involved them aggressively seducing straight people. That is openly hitting on uninterested people and then implying prejudice when their advances were spurned. Another occasion was of a gay person walking around dressed up in clothing that did not cover their private areas properly. In other words exhibiting themselves in public where even children were in sight. In those cases the gay men were thrashed by members of the public, but that’s in Africa, where justice can often be handed unexpectedly and swiftly.

      I'm not saying that he lost the argument tho. While on the spot, and being blind-sided, he would have had to: think whether his guests were gay or not, and then, think whether they were open about it, and then, think whether or not they would mind being dragged into the argument. Too much. It's also quite possible that he doesn't know, or care, whether his guests are gay or not and only mentioned Elton John because he's so unabashedly flagrant. He easily came to mind.

Gay people are so accepted nowadays. Comedians mock tons of different people and you don't see everyone else going out there crying saying that their life is torn apart because of what some comedian said or that they want to commit suicide because of what a comedian said. If you're not happy with yourself and your lifestyle that's because of you. Do you hear about gingers out there killing themselves because people say that we don't have souls? Or that we are creepy and ugly. Remember the joke I'll beat you like a redheaded stepchild? it doesn't hurt my feelings because I know who I am and I don't care what other people think about me. However if you're a sodomite maybe you should feel bad about your life and who you are sexually. I have a brother that's gay and I think it's disgusting and he knows it. Now if comedians are making fun of the way they talk, or their body language so what? you can usually pick out a homosexual because they all sound like they went to the same school on how to act like a fairy. if the comedian is saying they should hang themselves or something horrible like that then no I don't agree with that, it's not funny.

      By those rules though, Arsenio should have *anyone/everyone* on his show, because everyone in life regardless of who they are will encounter _some_ form of prejudice either by gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, politics, religion, age, nationality etc etc.

    Being apart of the lgbt+ community, I still agree with him. Being in a small position like any minority group doesn’t make you entitled to be an asshat. Don’t create oppression where there is none. They knew of these gay people because they happened to be gay. The gay scene was popular for gay people. Not for all people. He didn’t have whoever the guy was that they mentioned because the man had no idea of who he was.
    And to be honest, he was right. It was simple minded of them to have brought it up with him, a minority who was definitely oppressed, especially in the 90’s.
    Edit: According to these comments, a black man born in the 50s during Jim Crow was not oppressed because he grew up to have money and a television show, and those two things means that no one can discriminate against you or hasn’t ever. What a world.

I get that there was still a lot of stigma about gay people in the 90's, but Aresenio Hall would not have been one of the people to denounce them. As he said, he's had openly gay guests on and in an interview, there were other guests that he had who didn't come out at the time he had them on. You say he was being a bully and he didn't know what he actually believed in, but he had every right to react the way he did because the protesters were slandering him. Not to mention him being a minority, he knew firsthand of discrimination and he would not treat them that way. Outside of that, heckling is just a dick move.

      That's true because they don't want a late night show host to keep it real enough like he did in those times and the media gets offended on the gay agenda anyways but nowadays if you're famous and gay you will get a standing ovation and it will either make you or brake you.

    See...even in 1991 Arsenio knew that sexual preferences and proclivities and whatnot was irrelevant. Just because they aren't flaming gay and "proudly" gay, doesn't mean he hasn't had gays on his show. The problem is, they didn't have to come on the show and be all "Hi. I'm gay!"
    Even in 1991 Arsenio knew. Light years ahead of the times.

      They were clearly trying to gaslight Hall to make him look like a "bigot" and they failed big time.
      First they slandered him for exclusion, then they slandered him for mocking the gays as a comedic routine.
