In the movie "Moonlight", the story confronts the hardships of a homosexual man in a poor, black community of Miami. The film shows the protagonist, Chiron in three individual points in his life. During his childhood and teenage years, you seem him get bullied because people knew he was gay. He would be ganged up by the other kids and they would call him names and at one point he was even jumped. I believe violence is a response because as humans, whether we know it or not, we like to isolate things that we believe are not socially normal and rally ourselves together to remind ourselves.  A positive example is when we here on the news that a crime occur. We as a society indirectly tell ourselves that this is wrong by exposing the person who is different. Unfortunately this can become a negative way, forcing others to feel like being themselves is not socially acceptable.
