Quote I Love: Two men holding hands or holding guns?

Posted on by

Here’s this week’s quote I love…

“Why is it that, as a culture, we are more comfortable seeing two men holding guns than holding hands?” -Ernest Gaines

Hopefully that “we” will become fewer and fewer people.

  2. It IS a great quote…..and I have always been positively confounded by other people’s reactions to ANYONE showing affection in public….I have always wondered why they care, since it doesnt affect THEM! As for the holding guns thing? THAT does affect us all, so that is the sight that should bother people IMO.

  3. Thanks, Chris! Glad you liked the quote.

    Thanks, Elaine. Well said. Makes me angry when I think about how easily people accept violence in TV, movies, and video games, but see two men touch or kiss and they can’t handle it. I don’t get it.
