Repercussion at my school today about the gay marriage in Brazil

So today my history teacher entered the classroom and the first thing he said was congratulate the city I live for be having one of the firsts gay couples to officially get married. All the classroom was making disgusted sounds and jokes about it, so the teacher told everyone to shut up, the same teacher that made in almost every single lesson a ton of offensive jokes about being gay, told everyone how that was big and how they weren’t supposed to make fun about it. Everyone had to stop what they were doing to clap for all the gays out there that now can get married in Brazil, the people whom they offend everyday. It was just so good to show them that we are all people no matter gay or not we need to have equal rights. Now we all can get married around here.
