Michigan Carjacking Now Being Investigated As Possible Hate Crime:
Investigators: Stabbing could have been hate crime:
Brutal stabbing in Battle Creek investigated as anti-gay hate crime:
A 45-year-old gay man was brutally stabbed in a Battle Creek, Michigan park. What was first seen as a car jacking may now be a hate crime.
After the man was stabbed some hate filled posts began to appear on craigslist.
“I warned you, you dumb queer.” The message also said. “I e-mailed and said I have something … but you did not think it was a knife did you. Now you are in the hospital and your car is in the river. I warned you.”
Then, according to the Michigan Messenger, a second Craigslist posting appeared were the poster denied responsibility in the assault. The post was filled with anti-gay slurs and references to AIDS. The writer claims that the previous post was “to keep the fags out of the parks, and I am the one that did it. It is not safe to take children to parks or for a walk in the woods without running into a dick sucking party.”
Considering that craigslist and public parks are involved I am going to make an assumption that the victim was cruising craigslist. I am not blaming the victim if that assumption is correct however by engaging in such a dangerous practice he put himself in harms way.
As I’ve said before both gay and straight people need to stop cruising on craigslist for anonymous sex. Isn’t it obvious about the type of people that are on craigslist? And by type of people I mean psychos and sociopaths.
