Not to put fuel on the fire or anything, but I am still kind of leaning on VINH's side with this whole thing (aside from the expressed concern of potential British killings being inspired by Braveheart, I think that is a little extreme). But as for the whole gay thing, I see exactly what VINH is saying.
Just think of how many gay heroes you can think of in films? Any? Any at all? Maybe one or two? Now how many gay villians/bad guys/imbecile characters can you think of? I can think of a few without even straining my brain. If I were to take a little time to reflect on it, I am sure I could recall several others.
I don't think VINH is really doing much stretching at all to come to the conclusion he has come to. If we lived in a world where media was thriving with homosexual heroes and lead characters, or even supporting cast members who were of admirable character, then the whole "Not all gay people are good" argument would hold a good deal of water, but since we don't, and did even less so in the nineties when Braveheart was made, I think VINH stands on some pretty solid ground on this one.
