Full title: Gay theatre student who claimed he was beaten by homophobic thugs admits he got his injuries when he fell over (and WON'T face action for wasting police time)

A drama student who became an internet sensation after claiming he was savagely beaten up for being gay has admitted he caused his injuries himself when he tripped on the pavement...[snip]...today the teenager, who studies Contemporary Theatre and Performance at the University of Central Lancashire, admitted he made it all up. After being shown CCTV of him tripping and falling, face-first, onto the pavement, Kennedy accepted that the 'utterly inhumane homophobic attack' he had talked about actually never happened...[snip]...police said Kennedy will not face any action for wasting police time as they were convinced he actually believed he had been assaulted when he spoke to police.

Any of the high profile cases are fake.

Matt Shepherd was not attacked b/c he was gay. that has been proven to be a lie.

None that have been high profile or gotten any amount of news time have been real. All staged and fake by the people themselves.

They ought to be charged with inciting violence, hatred, and charged and do the same time as someone who really did the crime that was faked.

Hi, my name is Richard Kennedy and I’m a lying dumb a$$ POS!!!

I lied, lied, lied...but you are still supposed to feel sorry for me, because I’m gay and it “could” have happened....But, I lied.

Couple hundred hours of community service in a veterans nursing home — Maybe he will hear something that might actually turn his pathetic, selfish, self-centered life around.

Our language is becoming a mess.
Gay meant joyful.
Now it means perversion.
Homophobic means fear of homosexuals I presume. Then how could there be homophobic thugs? Seems more likely that homosexuals are Heterophobic since it is the homosexuals that seem to be afraid of heterosexuals.

I can’t remember the last time I heard about one of these “incidents” that DIDN’T turn out to be a hoax. Hoax is the norm now.

The trouble with these hoax stories, is that the SRM will run this on the front page. If a retraction is ever issued, it will be buried in the web page or back of a paper. The original message will never die.

Anybody who makes a false accusation must get the same penalty as the innocent person would have gotten.

I think homosexuals are closet (if we’re lucky) sociopaths.

In a rational world, reports like this would constitute hate crimes against straight men and women.

Libs have their protected groups: minorities, homosexuals, and females...(at least liberal minorities and females, conservative minorities and females can be treated like dirt.) Libs want to prove that mainstream America is just plumb full of mean, nasty haters who just can’t wait to do mean, evil, nasty things to the libs favorite pets. Who cares about the truth...the truth gets in the way of ...ta da!!!...SOCIAL JUSTICE!!!!

18 And the judges shall make diligent inquisition: and, behold, if the witness be a false witness, and hath testified falsely against his brother;

19 Then shall ye do unto him, as he had thought to have done unto his brother: so shalt thou put the evil away from among you.

20 And those which remain shall hear, and fear, and shall henceforth commit no more any such evil among you.
