Four men who turned themselves in for attacking a couple who were leaving a Gay Pride event on Miami Beach are now being charged under Florida’s hate-crime enhancement law.
... up to 30 years in prison if convicted of the attack that took place during Miami Beach’s annual gay-pride...

“Hide your shame, faggots.”
This is part of the problem. The left has engineered the concept of shame out of society. If you disapprove of another’s perversion, you are a “hater”, rather than the pervert feeling any shame.
Wrong- simply being white, Asian or latino and out and about is offensive to the KOG crew.
“Hate crimes.” Just another euphemism which is actually a layer of legal protection straight white Christian folks do not get.
Why not?
Queers are out for retribution, not justice.
I guess the all powerful “consent” rule doesn’t apply to the sodomites, does it?
Perhaps this incident will turn these 4 or their families in Republican votes, although I won’t hold my breath.
Ft. Lauderdale's Mayor Naugle found out that's the case the hard way.

Jim Naugle was once viewed as virtually invincible.He was a 24-hour mayor for Fort Lauderdale who fixed potholes when people complained and championed such popular causes as fighting overdevelopment. Polls showed his approval ratings topped 70 percent — despite his penchant for shoot-from-the-hip comments that left parts of the community feeling alienated and abused.
Times may have changed in the wake of Naugle's recent statements about homosexuality, according to political insiders and campaign experts. He ignited a firestorm when he charged the city has a problem with gay sex in public restrooms, said gays are unhappy and contended the gay Stonewall Library should not be housed in a city building because its collection contained pornography.
In an unprecedented repudiation, more than 800 people, including key members of Broward County's political power structure and business community, rallied in front of City Hall last week. Organizers said they would not try to recall Naugle because it would be difficult and expensive. Still, they would like the county and city commissions to censure him and say they will closely monitor not only his comments but those who seek to follow him.
And this was in 2007.
Yep. I agree. What I don’t agree with is the notion of hate crime. Assault is assault.
And these guys are entitled to defend themselves if they believe they are in danger. An assumption of innocence.
I remember that...but IIRC Naugle, a Democrat, never backed down.
I was very proud of him like I’ve never been proud of a democrat since. Even a decade ago, there were some morally decent dems. They’re extinct now.
Imagine being torn apart because you acknowledge that the public bathroom sex scene was getting out of hand.
How does “leaving a gay pride parade” play into any of this, other than to incite privileged class anger?
And they aren’t attracted to heterosexuals. If they hit on uyiu it is because their gaydar is never wrong.
Notice how the eneMedia only shows the clip of the video well into the altercation. What transpired before? We’ll never know unless someone files a Freedom of Information Act request for the evidence.
