What I said was all people SHOULD be treated with respect regardless. So the men dancing should be treated with respect as well as the DJ. Since they are all people they should be treated kindly. It's a general rule I think people SHOULD learn to follow...

After reading this thread, it seems that the op is stating a concern about an event that they were attending. I find it refreshing that op was concerned for another fellow villager.

Methinks this thread is not going to be the end of this story but the beginning of many such stories . Two people caught in the act at Market Square, drunks mauling each other on the dance floor, etc etc etc doesn't make the public squares inviting and it certainly does harm to The Village brand.

TV is turning into a PC Nazi camp. Now a DJ, based on a suspicion, is labeled a homophobe with calls for banishment from TV. Next up for persecution; Christians in the square.

You are probably closer to the truth than I wish to think about.

Well, my previous post was censored for some reason. Yet, it seems you are calling me a Nazi and that is ok. I have no problem with homophobes as long as they don't offend others and I have no problem with Christians but I think many of them don't act Christ like. And I have no problem with gays and lesbians. We should all be allowed to live our lives to the fullest as long as we are not hurting anyone else.

Homophobes? People question what happened and they are homophobes?

OMG, People!! 3 people (so far) have attested to the fact that this was, at the very least, rude behavior by the DJ. Rather than, heaven forbid, think there may be something wrong with a "villages" entertainer, we'd rather blatantly call the OP a liar. Rather than "label" this entertainer, we "label" the OP as overreacting. She simply stated what she saw, it was confirmed by 2 others and yet people who weren't even there, wanna guess what it was all about. Sometimes, I just don't get it. Really....

Maybe because they were new posters many are skeptical. I don't think it has much to do with the "village entertainer". Or how people feel about a person's sexual preference.


It just seemed like we were missing part of the story. Did someone behave badly? Did the DJ and the entertainer behave badly? Did people jump to a conclusion? Was someone's perception of what happened altered by alcohol?

Two old drunks tongue kissing on the dance floor ain't pretty to most of us, no matter who they are.

Smh

Finally someone who gets it!!!

I think we are quick to defend the DJ because his livelyhood is on the line here and the oldtimers on here don't put up with bashing unless they do a thorough questioning of the OP. This is a very serious charge against him. New posters are always suspect of having an axe to grind because it happens ALL THE TIME that they post the most outlandish things and then disappear. I still don't know even after all of the questioning who to believe on this one.

I don't think it's so much the first post for someone. It was a first post for 3 different people all posting at the same time bashing the DJ and the soundman who changed a song with a different tempo so they must be homophobic.

Were they old, drunk and French kissing? If behavior was out of place and made others uncomfortable I would hope to see that post. But so far other than the 3 posters every post has been speculation on what transpired.
