Students at the city's high school for gay kids ganged up to clobber a man after he taunted them, cops said. The free-for-all on Astor Place left the man injured and under arrest, along with three students from Harvey Milk HS.

He makes a comment, they throw bottles at him, and only then does he get out of the car...and they're the victims?!?
Sure, the guy should have kept his mouth shut, but what spin out of the Post!

How do you start a fight by banging a female's head against a storefront window when you are sitting in a car with your baby?

Also, remember who all the witnesses are in the story.

LOL. This school was established to keep these kids from being harassed and because these kids were supposedly defenseless to protect themselves in any other school. It would seem they have learned what every kid in a tough school has already learned, to survive you need to be in a clique.

I know some will accuse me of being too kind. But, what the hay, it's Friday!

Having a little reading comprehension problem his morning?
"The same kid came back yesterday and he brought a screwdriver with him and he said to the girl, 'Where are your people?' She said 'What people?' and he punched her in the face," said Stephanie Ruiz, 16, from Woodhaven.
Sounds to me like the taunter/puncher got what he had coming. If you walk up to someone, ask them a question, they give you an answer you don't like, and you respond by punching them, the person who got punched is the victim, even if the the victim and his/her friends subsequently proceed to physically assault the perp in self-defense.
The man who allegedly provoked the fight - Vernon Jones, 23, of Brooklyn - was treated at a hospital for a puncture wound and was charged with menacing.
And the police seem to think he committed an offense worth a formal charge too.

It seems you're having the comprehension problem:
Cops, however, said the brawl was caused when Jones began making comments to the students while sitting in his car outside the Starbucks, waiting for his wife to buy coffee. They said Jones also had an infant in the car. Cops said Jones told the kids the way they were behaving "reflected poorly" on other black kids, but didn't specify if this was a gay slur.
They said the students began throwing bottles at the car and Jones got out wielding a screwdriver.

That's another problem...
...was he disarmed? The screwdriver wound was in Jones not on any of the gays.

A human being is so much more than their sex drive. How shallow and stunted to encourage people to make their sex drive their entire public identity. The government should not be in the business of promoting a "gay ghetto" or promoting the left-wing ideologies of "gay pride" and "coming out".
To: B Knotts
So the cops filed charges against the guy just for saying to the kids that "the way they were behaving 'reflected poorly' on other black kids"? That doesn't sound real plausible to me, especially in NYC.

confronted Simon, who is bisexual, outside the Starbucks where she was hanging out after school. As an aside . . . .
These days, I gotta ask this:
Anyone know if this "she" is really a girl?
Err, you know, a . . . natural girl, with the real stuff?
