OK, dorks, here's why you can't make gays a protected minority like blacks or hispanics...

They tried to play the 'Hate Crime' card for the crime against a gay,
but what if the perpetrator is gay?  Or in this case, as I suspect,
PRETENDS to be gay to get a lessor charge?

Dial up the genetic homo testing machine, you're gonna need it.  LOL

N.Y. hate-crimes trial takes a surprise twist
The Associated Press
October 4, 2007
NEW YORK - The killing had all the hallmarks of a hate crime.

The victim was Michael Sandy, a gay, black 28-year-old. The suspects
were a crew of young whites who ran out of money and drugs on a Sunday
night and figured a gay man would be an easy mark for a robbery.

Police said the men, using an online chat room, lured Sandy to a
remote beach in Brooklyn by promising a date, then beat him and chased
him into the path of a speeding car. Mayor Michael Bloomberg called
the crime "a pernicious scheme" to single out a victim because of his
sexual orientation. Prosecutors filed murder and hate-crimes charges.

>But a two-week trial has produced a surprise twist: The man who first
> suggested going after a gay target was probably gay, too.

Taking the stand in his own defense, Anthony Fortunato testified about
having a series of one-night stands with men he met online. He said
he'd been having homosexual impulses since he was around 13, although
he kept that hidden from friends.

"I was living two complete double lives," said Fortunato, 21. But he
waffled when asked directly about his sexual orientation.

"I don't know," he said. "I could be homosexual. A homosexual.
Bisexual."

The revelation, corroborated by three men who testified that they had
sexual encounters with Fortunato, was intended to question the
validity of charging him with a hate crime, an offense that could add
years to his prison sentence if he is convicted.

Fortunato, one of four men charged in the assault, acknowledged on the
stand that it was his idea to enter an online chat room and find a gay
man to set up.
