First-degree murder charge filed in death at fight in Evanston

Even the newspaper put a slanted title on this story.... there was no "fight"... someone was beat to death, end of story.




<snip>A 35-year-old Evanston man has been charged with first-degree murder in the beating of a man who claimed to want to kiss him, authorities said.</snip>

1. Why are straight men so insecure in their sexuality.
Remember the Jenny Jones incident? There have been numerous since then.

I would tell you what a real man is but it would probably be deleted instantly because it's of a sexual act.

2. I'm Not Sure What To Believe......
If the guy is using the "Gay Panic Defense"... or if his friend said something during a lengthy drinking session....



Either way.... the situation is fucked to the 23rd degree... the haters will however chortle while reading this story.....



But I can only take away the thought that people have sunk to the level of the animal chain... and should be treated as such.



The issue of a kiss aside.... it appears that a couple of punches stopped any advances (if there were any) with the fellow who died...



But that just wasn't good enough.... what the hell has happened to society..... when you feel the need to beat someone to death.........

3. Hey, Hater Asshole...
Glad to see you're being charged. Ever heard of "no"? The "gay panic" "defense" is getting old. If you did this, hope they throw the book at you.
