Spain's State Federation of Lesbians, Gays, Transexuals, and Bisexuals has shared this touching video, showing what happened when an American gay couple asked strangers in Madrid for help in translating a very homophobic letter from their hotel owner.

What started out as a friendly encounter between the Americans and the locals...
Quickly turned serious when the Spaniards kept reading the hateful letter.
The fake letter was said to be from a hotel owner who had accepted the pair's reservation on the condition that they wouldn't be intimate in the hostel.
"If I see you touch one another, kiss each other, or do any pussy stuff around me in the hostel I will fucking punch your face," the letter read.
This guy in particular seemed to really struggle to read out the hateful words. 💔
Many of the people told them to report the letter to the police...
And told them they couldn't believe how hurtful the letter was.
"Discrimination is not a joke," the video tells us
"In Spain, 38% of LGBT people have felt discriminated against or persecuted."
"But only 10% of people have reported it."
