Sure shooting up a house with people inside is pretty bad...but don’t say mean words.

So, I guess it would have been ok to fire into a house of herosexual black people? Or do we need some kind of consequences checklist?

March 2020 and it makes news as Gay Pride month starts 2021?

[lee martell]

That was a dumb thing to do. Americans of all persuasions own guns. They could easily have followed him back to his home to return fire.

There’s no such thing as “hate crime” or “hate speech.” Crime is crime, and we either have free speech or we have nothing.

The MSM has finally found a “typical Republican.”

[Kickass Conservative]

Hate is a Motive, it isn’t a Crime.

When is somebody going to challenge these Unconstitutional Thought Crime Laws in a Court of Law, if a true Court of Law actually still exists in this Country?

Something wrong with this guy. Where is murdering one house of homosexuals rid the world forever of homosexuals.

However, it does rid the house of a neighbor who is now going to go to prison and have a lot of homosexual neighbors.

Any witnesses to this?

[livius]

Sorry, but I don’t understand why people here are defending this guy. Shooting into anybody’s home is wrong, wrong, wrong.

If convicted, Howald faces up to life in prison on the hate crime charge...

Murderers get less.

[Gay State Conservative]

As a juror I’d *never* vote guilty on any hate crime charge. If the guy fired into an occupied structure...without good reason...I’d vote guilty on something. But not a “hate crime”.

He is only 44 years old. With good behavior, he will be out of prison right after his 99th birthday.

Have any of those perverts ever been charged with a hate crime for trashing a Catholic church?

And,, in a semi-related story...

MOSES LAKE, Wash. - A bizarre video has gone viral that shows a boat erupting into flames and sinking on Moses Lake after its occupants harassed another boat that was displaying a Pride Flag. The video then shows the occupants of the Pride flag boat rescuing the boaters who had harassed them.

I wonder if what the back story is on this incident? How did the suspect know it was a “gay house?” Any run-ins with the residents preciously?

We’ll never know with the Gaystapo in charge of media.
