How do you deal with homophobic people?

I always like knowing how others deal with them. I live in a tourist town and had a lot of homophobic people in the town. Both me and my gf try to ignore it as best as possible. Or in a few cases we make comments back.

Depends on what you mean by "homophobic". Do they hate/dislike homosexual persons, discriminate against them unfairly, or... do they simply have a different opinion than you on what is right and wrong. Those are two dramatically different positions.

The LGBTQ movement has gone a long way from being discriminated against, so actively oppressing anyone else who doesn't share exactly their point of view, meaning they aren't allowed to think differently.

So which is it? Depends on which of the two situations is occurring.
