Obviously the perps they are looking for were white. Apparently, this is only a hate crime if the victim is in a protected class and the perp is a white male.
But no mention of that in the story. Why not? I wonder....
A few threads below this one is a similar story.
Turns out the victim is a gay Filipino artist out trolling after the bars closed at 4 am..
That checks the boxes on at least TWO or THREE protected class cards.
The victim was a homosexual which trumps black in the democrat victim hierarchy. Had the perps been white it would have been in the first sentence or the headline.
