Gay people are only more concerned with making whatever happened a hate crime against gays, much more than it was a racist attack for that man being black. they are already on code with their agenda, and it further proves why the LGBTQ cannot be allied with the black community, because they will always place their gayness 1st and can be easily manipulated by white society and used as a pawn against black empowerment and black agendas.
to make it clear, if this even happened the way its being promoted, he was attacked because he was black...period.
if he was a white gay man, asian gay man, lesbian, white transexual, hispanic gay man, etc he would have not been attacked that night.
but if he was a black republican, black democrat, black liberal, black conservative, black christian, black muslim, black straight, black bi curious, black woman, black man, etc, he would have still been attacked by those same men, evident by the noose they hung around his neck.
but to be honest, his story sounds real suspect, and sounds like he was doing some bullshyt, got his ass whooped and came back with a fabricated story.
its why we need to fall back and allow all the evidence to come out before we make opinions. instead of being what social media wants you to be, emotional and illogical running to conclusions from the initial reports.
for chicago, there has been an entire community in chicago called "boys town" near downtown with nothing but homosexuals running all over the place. this kind of attack doesnt happen there. its also very strange he was getting attacked, by a group of whites calling him nikka and nobody pulls a phone out and starts recording. that dont sound right to me.
but for many, its more important for them to push that its this hatred and bigotry against gays, so they will ignore the obvious.
