ABC Stages Gay-Bashing at New Jersey Sports Bar

On a new installment of ABC's "What Would You Do?" series, the network sent a pair of gay actors into a sports bar in Linden, NJ. The couple was joined by three others performers, playing a heckler and a heterosexual couple.

Spoiler alert! Most patrons are very supportive of the gay couple, even when the other actors try to stir up shit. One female patron even gets incredibly passionate about their freedom to show affection in public.

In the end, I'm not sure if I necessarily agree with the sentiment that "tolerance has become an American value". There's still a lot of hate out there, but it's nice to see that the Garden State folks have our back. I encourage you to consider that next time you're inclined to say that their state smells like garbage.
