On Tuesday, Illinois became the fifteenth state to legalize same-sex marriage, but not everyone is celebrating. Yesterday, a video surfaced of a Chicago bus passenger losing his goddamn mind about marriage equality.
It’s not entirely clear what instigated the tirade. Rocky Quinones, who runs the Gifted Souls Dance Company in Chicago, quietly snapped the footage and posted it to his Youtube account.
It appears that the unidentified homophobe Quinones filmed was having an argument with a woman on the bus. The video starts with him saying, “You would’ve been able to marry a young boy, rape him in the ass, and then burn him. That’s John Wayne Gacy. And then if you want to talk about Jeffrey Dahmer, he would’ve married the (unclear), fucked him in the ass, and then burned his ass and then ate his ass.”
Say what you will, but the man knows his serial killers.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Unsurprisingly, there’s a religious tenor to the man’s diatribe, as he calls one of his fellow passengers a “Satan-worshipping low life” before telling her to “suck a dick” and “put that rotten pussy juices (sic) all over your face.” He finishes by calling out her adult acne and asking if she’s ever heard of syphilis. For a heterosexual, he sure throws shade like a queen.
The rest of the video is an interesting if sad diversion. He compares gays to rapists and pedophiles. He refuses to exit the bus and yells, “I ain’t gonna go to jail!” And when another passenger tries to reason with him, he says, “Yeah, you can suck a dick too.”
On the one hand, it’s fun to watch people freak out in public. On the other, this man appears to be intoxicated and/or mentally ill. Whatever is wrong with him, we’ll pray for him whenever we can find time away from sucking dicks.

A crazy, angry black guy on mass transit? That’s something you rarely come across in America.

We fool ourselves when we think that hate goes away by a law being enacted. It doesn’t. It takes time to die, just like peo;le do, one at a time. And they are everywhere. So gird thy loins, guys. Wait’ll the vote gets down into Arkansas, Louisiana, and Alabama. Then you’re gonna see some fireworks!

So did he go to jail??? I would have been worried he had a gun in that backpack, I would have had the bus driver stop so I could get off. Updates anyone?

These freak-outs give me the creeps. I usually end up getting hoofed in the face for minding my own business. Riding the subway late at night on the weekend is the worst. I always get someone saying to me, “What are looking at?” Just as a heads-up the reply, “NO MUCH!” gets one into trouble.

@mozzer: Yeah, this is so not unusual. Those poor people having to have to endure listening to the crazies rants. Usually, you can at least walk around them on the street.
