Haters may have to hate, but at least they could try to get their grammar correct.

The Y that looks like a 7 is gay.

I mean ArE Ga7.

Despite the grammatical errors, it is concise and to the point.

Good work, graffiti guy.

Maybe he meant ‘dikes’?

I can’t see any grammatical problem; the sentence only has a subject, a verb and an object, and they’re in the right order, so the grammar’s perfect. This homophobe’s punctuation, on the other hand, leaves a lot to be desired.

Oh God, thank you. ‘Grammar’ just seems to be a common-use catch-all these days for anything in written form.

It ain’t. Aren’t. Aunt.

I hope the graffiti artist didn’t ride their ‘razor style’ scooter to the skate park to commit the crime.
Now that would be gay.

Whats more concering is the word ArE.

WTF is the go with the small ‘r’?

I think the person should express their opinion to their local motorcycle gang.

How is this homophobia?

It’s using ‘gay’ as a pejorative. For example:

Pork Hunt’s use of an apostrophe in ‘Boeing 777s’ was pretty f*ckin’ gay.

Pork Hunt said :

How is this homophobia? Bike’s (sic) are not even the same species as humans. It’s just the same as saying lamp posts, Boeing 777’s or books are gay.
You can’t compare roses with pansies….

Remove the seat, leave the pole.

Pork Hunt said :

You can’t compare roses with pansies….

You can, however, compare bike’s to pansies.

Actually, I think the author of that text was expressing, on behalf of bicycles, the joy and happiness they feel in their hearts.
