Gay people should be treated no differently than anyone else. If you want respect, then treat others with respect. No one has the right to attack or verbally abuse a race, sexual orientation or someone with a disability as long as that person is causing no harm.
My husband and I have gay friends and we treat them the same as our heterosexual friends, but, if they were to be disrespectful to us, they would be treated the same way as we would a disrespectful heterosexual friend.

You may also discover that a gay person sees the world a little differently than you do. Finding out how other people see the world can help you to see it more clearly.
Finally, a person who has "come out" -- publicly said that they're gay -- is pretty brave. It makes sense to respect bravery.
