Is it safer to stay in the closet?

With homophobic attacks increasingly on the rise more than we know statistically, I would have to say that the gay community is more basically tolerated rather than accepted. I have seen the negative comments and hate and dislikes pride events get on YouTube videos. Homophobia is everywhere, certainly in the police force and the army. How do you feel. Do you feel safer being in the closet and being strickly private?

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout No, not homophobic, just grew up in an area and a time where it wasn't in your face and enforced up with pride events when the community already have their rights, quite right to have their equal rights but people should still go about their business and not , in some cases, provoke deliberate attacks, all be it completely wrong as nobody at all should be attacked for anything.
