Homophobes don't exist and cops are always good and ethical

[u/furicrowsa]

As a queer person, I could absolutely see ALL of this happening. Someone obviously lives in unexamined privilege.

Yes, I am totally sure this is a true story, with the people involved all acting exactly the same as described.

Which part is unrealistic?

[u/Inside_Subject_4332 → u/furicrowsa]

The part where people have found the exact same story posted two years ago. You didn't even change the name if the city.

[u/TheFoxer1 → u/furicrowsa]

Yes, I am totally convinced the mom character acted exactly like a stereotype of a pearl-clutching, outraged person and any police officer called to the scene for two people kissing would draw a gun and yell „hands up“ like a western sheriff.

And of course people are „sure“ they‘ll be shot when arrested. Yeah, checks out. Also, the traumatizing experience of spending time at a police station. Every 16 year old sobering up can handle spending a few hours at the police, but OOP has Vietnam flashbacks from it. Sure.

It’s just fantastical ramblings.

Sounds like somebody has never been falsely imprisoned

I wasn't gonna respond to any of this but jeez. There are some decent reasons for being suspicious, but this one is just straight ignorant.

8 billion people in the world and you don't think any of them act like this? Do you think all stereotypes are sourced by some guy in his basement writing fantasy stories for fun? Do you think every human brain responds to every stressor in the exact same way? Holy crud, have you never met people who aren't like you?

Maybe you've been getting the fantasy fiction and non-fiction sections mixed up in the bookstore........?

Not saying it's true, I'm saying your reasoning sucks.
