Though he’s still “clinging to life,” 49-year-old hate crime survivor Jack Price was able to identify the two men who allegedly attacked him in Queens on Friday. One suspect, Daniel Aleman, is already under arrest; police say Price’s other assailant is Daniel Rodriguez, who’s yet to be apprehended. The two men, facing hate crimes charges, allegedly beat Price while screaming anti-gay slurs. NYDN: “The wanted suspect allegedly boasted during the attack that his father is a city prison guard and would protect him from arrest.” Price was able to tell investigators what happened before losing consciousness; he remains hospitalized in a medically-induced coma.
UPDATE: Ugh. For better or worse, it was caught on tape.(We previously indicated Price “slipped into” a coma because of his severe injuries. Rather, doctors placed him into a coma to let his body heal.)

OMG how horrible!!

Watch this case. If gay panic is used by the lawyers to reduce the sentences, it’s time to picket the legal firms. Make no mistake, it’s THAT important.

Here’s more info/photo of the victim.
Ugh. I can’t help but think that these dirtbags will get off easy if convicted. Probation in 3 months.

It’s disgusting. I don’t know why I watched this. I’m so disturbed right now and ANGRY. If those to sons-of-bitches were in front of me right now, I would stab them. I would stab them allot, but really slowly. Then I’d pour some salt in those wounds. I’d do anything humanly possible to make them feel it all.

@GBM: Yeah bro, Queerty loves homophobic hispanics, but draws the line at gay bashing Blacks. Here’s a suggestion, why don’t you go and peddle your racial carnival act to your credulous audience, since that’s the only people your “argument” seeks to appeal to. The rest of the “racists” on Queerty will just move on indifferently anyway, since we are all challenged “racists” suffering from brainwashing, right? These pixels you’re reading have me convinced of my racial superiority over you, it’s in my fraaking cultural DNA!!! ZOMG!!!!. Why don’t you come right out and say you think that beaners have it soft compared to your suffering? That’d be an interesting shit stirring debate. Oh snap! I just said that didn’t I? My bad, 😀
