Anti-Gay Attack On NYC Subway

Not everyone was feeling gay this weekend.

A reader just wrote in to inform us that he and his partner were attacked on the subway after leaving a pride event at their church. Here are the gory details, via Gothamist:

The guy kept asking us to move because he didn't like us and that we made him sick. There was no place else for us to go. He started hitting me and then his girlfriend started clawing me with her nails…I took a cab to St. Vincents, filed a police report and got two black eyes, 7 stitches, multiple chipped teeth, broken glasses.

The assailant remains at large, so look alive on your next metro ride.

This is exactly why the need to learn jujitsu is relevant today.

On the bright side at least in quite sometime this current supreme court did something right for once by upholding the second amendment.
In this type of climate the best thing to do is to make use of it. Because ever since gunpowder was invented muscles and jujitsu are worthless.

Churchill has a point. If gay bashings started resulting in bashers facing down a pistol — or perhaps even a couple of wounded/dead bashers — the frequency of those events would likely start to drop off pretty dramatically.

It's more likely that the bashers will have the guns …

Gay bashings always spurt up right around gay pride. Increased visibility and all that.
