Another hate crime reported in TX

[The Philosopher]

from the Dallas Voice

In the second report of a violent anti-gay hate crime in Texas over the Halloween weekend, a lesbian college student says she was beaten by two men who kidnapped her at a party in San Antonio. Kristen Cooper, who attends the University of Texas at San Antonio, told KENS Channel 5 she was waiting for a ride outside an apartment complex in the northwest part of the city when the men punched her and drug her into their truck, before driving off and continuing to beat her.

The suspects eventually let Cooper go, but she was without a phone so she walked down the roadway until someone spotted her and called 911. Cooper said the only thing the suspects knew about her was that she’s gay, and they yelled anti-gay slurs during the attack. She suffered a concussion and whiplash, and her face is badly bruised and swollen.

Police are investigating the incident as an assault but said they can’t confirm it was a hate crime.

3. There are 3 threads in this forum that have posts clearly showing why this is still happening

on a regular basis.

Although they won't admit it their attitude is all that needs to be looked at to figure it out.

I'm ashamed to even be on the same board as these people.

4. It's only going to get worse before it gets better

The bigots don't like losing, and they are. They're not going to go down easily.
