They said that they had some glitter on their clothing for whatever reason. It seems you have to watch what you wear on your body if you are a man. I wonder if they beat up lesbians? Depends on how they are behaving. I expect maybe they were being loud obnoxious and chucking glitter all the place and being a PITA to other people on the train. But of course they won't say that to the police. We have not heard much about the case since, this guy was some sort of LGBT activist. Had they been quietly minding their own business I expect nothing would have happened I expect he is "bigging up" the gay bit, gay can also mean happy and in high spirits, speaking of spirits I bet he was drunk too! I found a bit more. www.pinknews.co.uk/2017/12/06/two-16-year-olds-arrested-after-attack-on-gay-teen-who-was-forced-to-apologise-for-being-gay/Note the original story omits the bit in bold ie that they gave him back the phone and also that a "fight ensued" I would suggest that bit is the gay man friends attacking them. Anyhow as they were on the way to a party I expect they were already drunk. I mean he is part of some LGBT group the type that tend to be professional complainers and also the type who like to parade their sexuality in public. As an aside I expect the woman who attack them was a lesbian ie more butch than the boys perhaps? Anyhow not sure what has happened the alledged attackers were release on bail. However it seems the incident was over when one of his friends attacked his "attackers" What we have is a one-sided account though. I'd like to hear the other side. You are assuming a lot Kronks. Why should you think that they were drunk and rowdy and throwing glitter around? Normal people are going to fancy dress parties all the time. The party goers mightn't have been drunk, but the two who accosted them could have been?

Even if they were still does not give anyone the right to beat them up They did not beat anyone up, I expect there is a lot of "spin" put on the story, maybe an apology was demanded for their behaviour which he interpretated as for "being gay", one of the girls attacked them and hurt herself in the process. Maybe *they* were arrested, easy to see in fancy dress. I dunno I would rather an independent version of events and I have not seen one of them. And you do not know if someone is gay or not so it seems they were advertising their sexuality in some way, possibly by a public display of affection, ie sex in public, I dunno i was not there.

I know what groups of people in high spirits and possibly drunk can be like often a nuisance to those around them. I expect they are having a bit of a "party" on the tube? A lot of people preload with alcohol before going out as it is cheaper.

When there isn't much evidence, I tend to give the victims the benefit of the doubt. No one should go around accosting other people no matter what.!!! Not in my book.

I feel no matter if the couple is straight or gay, they need to act respectable in public. BUT with that being said, one's choice of sexuality should not be held against them. There are a LOT worse things out there than one's choice of sexuality! It's much easier to judge another than find fault in one's self! Violence is WRONG...NO MATTER the situation! Anytime someone bring bodily/mental harm to another it is a crime and should not be over looked!

How did he know he was gay for example? Did he have a big I am gay sign? As I say were are hearing one side of it. We know violence is wrong but if you are making a nuisance of yourself you will attract criticism. Oh and by they way they were attacked by them. Biased story.

Biased story. your view of the whole incident is biased more like! whether or not he was gay is neither here nor there, the fact is they thought he was gay and they set up on them for that reason and that reason alone , what they were doing or how they were behaving does not give anyone else the right to assault them which is what happened here whether you want to believe it or not because you are anti gay.

Why should I be biased? WE have heard one side of the story. Think they were unbiased, the guy was president of some gay society "president of the LGBT society at Ravensbourne design and digital media college in Greenwich". I suspect they engaged in public sexual activity, they much have been, or advertising their sexuality in some way. There is no need to do that. If they are adverting their sexuality they are inviting criticism of it. Had they been peacefully and unobtrusively travelling to their destination nobody would have known they were gay, clearly that was not these case. Maybe he was wearing one of these?

Anything is possible Kronks, in what we consider to be normal behaviour, such as a man kissing a woman. Some people would go beserk if the two people kissing were two men or two women.

Personally I am not keen on seeing people kissing in public irregardless of their sexuality, indeed I don't even like seeing it on TV, i think it is a personal thing and nothing to do with me so I don't really having it "thrust upon me", if you will pardon the expression. Especially if they are close by it just kind of make me feel a bit awkward or whatever. There is no need for it! Anyhow he looks more miserable than gay to me!

Hi Kronks, couples kissing in public don't bother me. When I'm on the bus someone will say goodbye with a kiss to the person boarding the bus. It is commonplace here in Australia. They are affectionate people.
