Gay Bashing in the Carribbean

[revtj]

Breaking News Story : Those bad people, who aren't Americans like we are, are homophobic and they beat up gay people. Gee, I'm shocked, because, those alien island people are just so bad and all. Things like that don't happen every day in America and become a sensational new story.

[Pardon my sarcasm, please. I really DO feel for the guys, their partners and their families, and they are in my prayers. What happened is awful no matter where & when...but why does it have to happen "over there" to be a sensational story? There are dozens of gaybashings & hate crimes right here in America that get routinely ignored.] :'(

They were employees of CBS news... that's probably why there's so much attention.

Maybe it will end up being an education for the US on hate crimes. We sure need it. tj

Very true.
