“A [Georgia] jury finds a Decatur man guilty of a hate crime toward a gay couple. 44-year-old John Turnbo is neighbors with the couple. In June, he hung a noose out side of his home. He also sharpened a sword on his porch, while yelling slurs at the two men… Turnbo will be sentenced in October. He could get 6 years in prison.” [WCIA]

I guess prison is one option, but what a roundabout way to get fucked in the ass!
