Sounds like you are just taking it out of context.

I've been in KC for over 40 years and I've talked to literally thousands of alums from different schools in the region over the years. And the "gay slurs" came almost exclusively from Mizzou. Exclusively. And you know what? It wasn't an unfair attack, because Lawrence was gay-friendly even back when I attended.
You're missing the real issue here: the state (my state no less since I'm from here) is or at least was heavily conservative about the gay issue. Undeniably. So was Mizzou. Until one football player came out. It's such a total joke watching the standing O.
