Jason Shepard and Matthew Shepard's murders

No, the issue is that the liberal media tells the whole world about one murder and is completely silent about another.

The media is manipulating public opinion with false information.

Just read your post again and change the word " gay " to the word "straight" then you can apply what you feel to others

"Smithson, a heterosexuall, murdered Shephard after slipping him GHB, a date rape drug, then hid the body in the basement of his home."

If Shephard were a woman there still would be something wrong with the hypothetical statement above.

"Smithson, an Asian, murdered Shephard after slipping him GHB, a date rape drug, then hid the body in the basement of his home."

"Smithson, a Christian, murdered Shephard after slipping him GHB, a date rape drug, then hid the body in the basement of his home."

"Smithson, a Muslim, murdered Shephard after slipping him GHB, a date rape drug, then hid the body in the basement of his home."

So you wouldn't find anything wrong with these hypothetical statements? No group of people should be type-casted.

It matters not what is right and what shouldn't be done....articles do it all the time. If it were a Christian it would state they were. If a Priest touched a boy...that's what it says. It never says "A man molested a boy." It says "A priest from (such and such a place) molested a boy."

You probably made jokes that deal with that very topic.

Faux, I may agree in general with your statement but in many case these details have to do with the story.

We do not like it when it is one of our own but we often use it when it is not.

This story came to the surface because both young victims have the same last name.

One has been spoken about at great length for many years. The other was not reported by the media who could not escape to notice the coincidence but instead choose to be silent.

This is why more and more people a stopping to read, hear or watch all the mass media.

When they go out of business, I will not go to their funeral

"Faux, I may agree in general with your statement but in many case these details have to do with the story."

Well obviously a person would come to the conclusion that Smithson is a homosexual because of the fact that he raped another man. Why would you need to reinstate that fact?

When a straight man rapes a woman is it necessary for a journalist to inform it's readers that the man is a heterosexual? It is not necessary and it would not happen unless the journalist was trying to disparage the heterosexual communities.

I am sorry I called you a dumb piece of shit, it was not ok for to say that to you. I am also sorry that I pointed out the fact that you're ignorant.

In the case of Matthew Shepard, the whole story was reported as the murder of a gay man by straight people for months and months.

That is the same thing.

But then later on, ABC news which is quite liberal made an indepth reporting and said that it was not about Shepard being gay at all.

Once again, the issue here is that if someone is still getting information by the mass media, over time, they are being slowly brainswashed to fit someone else agenda

During the last week, you are the 4th person apologizing. That is a big surprise. I appreciated it

I never use profanity in front of my kids. One day, I said the word "damn". They were totally shocked.
I will never forget their reaction.

Mathew was killed because he was gay.

Smithson isn't rapist because he's gay, he's a rapist because he is a fucked up man. That kind of behavior is inexcusable and is not acceptable in our community.

There is a major difference between the type of attention you're trying to bring to the Smithson story and what type of attention people tried to bring to the Matthew Shepard story.

Mathew had been drinking and he hit on somebody who didn't appreciate it very much. He was human and he had been drinking, I can relate to him completely. I live in rural Minnesota. Unfortunately, I have ran into the same problem. I thank the baby Jesus for blessing me with friends that are forgiving and understanding, lol.

Do you know what it's like to bleed because somebody doesn't think it's right for you be something you have no control over? It's discouraging, but I'm stronger now. I wasn't beaten for hitting on somebody, I was beaten for showing up to a party where some drunk rednecks knew I was gay. It's a small town.

Hate crimes are real. Smithson didn't rape that man because he is a horrible gay, he did it because he is a horrible person. So quit being one of those horrible heterosexuals and just leave us the fuck alone! Why can't you devote your time to something that is more important?? Pick an issue, the world Bush left us is full of them!

Honestly, I don't think you're a horrible heterosexual, I think that you probably have good intentions. However, your aim can really hurt people who have been struggling just to be accepted their whole lives. Being gay is not something we wake up and tell ourselves we'd like to try! It's horrible when we first discover that about ourselves! We deny it and pretend we can live a lie! If we're strong enough to muster up some courage to say who we are, we can get ridiculed and attacked. Not everyone of us have had to put up with that, but those of us that had to deal with those things will be the ones to win our equal rights.

I am sorry but I don't think our opposition's desire to repress us can ever trump our desire to be treated equal.

We will win.

You know exactly what I mean. You can choose to ignore it.

That is not the point of the post

It is intolerable that the medias are so one sided and manipulate the news to such extreme.

During the last 4 weeks we have witnessed many hate crimes in this country against people because if their religion and personal believes

Not one person in the media, not one politician lifted their finger to try to stop it.

Most of them were commited by gay activists in plain day light with all the justifications they could find.

From now on anytime an homosexual person will even mention the words hate crime, I have to ask him or her : What about November 2008 ?

All crimes against anyone is really hateful.

You steal...you're being hateful towards those that are trying to make a living. You dislike them enough to steal from them. You certainly don't love 'em enough to do right.
