People are so damn ignorant. 

Anyone who claims to be a Punk fan, let alone a fan of a band like Against Me!, that starts spewing bigoted nonsense is an idiotic hypocrite.  Or, perhaps, a loser just looking to get attention through bullying and verbal lashing. 

Either way, people like that are good for nothing.
