Glitterbombing

Do you think it's right.

I believe it is, it is a form of protest and the constitution protects my right to protest, and also it helps spread LGBT awareness. As quoted "Stop the hate, taste the rainbow." - Nick Espinosa

Sure, it's a "form of protest" (I use that phrase very loosely). But it's a stupid one. If you're going to protest, do so in a way that actually makes a statement. This "form of protest" is equivalent to a whiny five-year-old pointing his finger at another five-year-old saying they're a poo-poo head. I mean, really. Protest in a legitimate, mature, productive manner.
If you're going to protest, actually accomplish something other than looking like a complete dumbass.

It's a way of showing how idiotic you are.

Don't see anything wrong with it. It's funny, but not really effective. I think it's an awesome way of saying 'fuck you' to homophobes. Makes me want to carry a bucket of glitter with me at all times so when I see one I can dump it on their heads and yell, "You just got glitter bombed, NIGGA!" Then I'd run off and masturbate to gay porn because I'm a total loser.

Glitterbombing. This is an entirely new concept for me. I've never heard of it, nor have I seen it in action. I gather from the name that the common procedure is simply to dump hellaciously sicknasty amounts of glitter on a rather ignorant individual, for the sole benefit of annoying them. Well, I thank you for giving me a means for a couple new prank ideas, and I think it sounds awesome. It's harmless, and the extent of any damages will probably be that they have glitter in their clothes for the next few wash cycles. Pros: entertainment for the masses.

First time hearing about it, it just sounds like maximum fun with minimal effect.

No, it's not. There's no constitutional right to throw glitter on people. Protesting should never involve physical contact or aggression of any kind, and that's what glitterbombing is. You don't have any legal standing to back yourself up on this.

Glitterbombing hardly "helps spread LGBT awareness," is just makes protesters look immature. Really, nobody's going to take individuals who think glitter is an effective form of protest seriously. Actual efforts, like by organizations in Washington state recently, are going to spread awareness.

well it could be considered littering unless you pick up every single speck of glitter and it seems kinda weak as a protesting technique

Glitterbombing is very childish and it is VERY disrepectful! THis should not be considered protest. But a crime. Dwstruction of property cimpletey. I mean When i get glitter on me its hell trying to get that stuff off. The main problem is iits not classy politically. If they are homophobes so what thats how they choose to lives, such as gays, str8, and bi's. I thinks it is innapropriate, and doesnt send positive signals
