"New Orleans police have identified three black men who were gunned down in a 7th Ward home. The men were apparently gay, one possibly transgender, and police 'believe the three victims knew their killers.' The victims were all from Mississippi and living together in a home on the 2500 block of Pauger Street. They are identified as Felix Pearson, 19; Kenneth Monroe, 27; and Darriel Wilson, 20. Nola.com reports the men were found Saturday afternoon after the building manager 'said he saw the lower half of a man's body through a window and called 911.'"

I'm glad this story is getting more coverage.
Why is there no outrage here about this story?
this is aweful
There is so much violence against gays right now. We have to appeal to International Human Rights groups as our own government does not care and we are not expecting a President Obama to care one Iota about us. We need to develop better self-protections, including Hate Crimes reporting even in states with no Hate Crimes protections by reporting the crime and then co9vering the reasons in a written statement.
I just postponed my trip to the Big Easy indefinitely. We need this on the cover of The Advocate! We need to be on the television news and not be rendered invisible as there is a cultural war against our Right to Be and Love whom We Choose.
2009 will be a bumpy ride, folks so document all your liasons and any unwarranted attacks, including verbal. Gays are endangered by the New Patriarchy of Ignorance.
What a sad, sad tragedy to mark the beginning of a New Year.
Murder in N.O. how suprising?
The only way it will get on the cover of the advocate is if some straight celebrity is connected to it. then they'll put his mug on the cover.
