Because the black community singles itself out by being more vocal about it's homophobia. Yes, homophobia exists everywhere and is just as prevalent in every other culture. I never singled out the black community, the black community has singled itself out. If the white community (whatever that is) was more public about their homophobia, I would chastise them to. And when they do say something homophobic (i.e. some conservative radio quack), I do condemn them and feel shame by association.
As for your second comment, I'm not going to involve myself in a game of racial "who is the worst." I'm not defending the white community, I'm defending no one. Criticism is not always politically motivated.
