An openly gay man was killed by a white supremacist or at least someone with those ties

about a mile from where I live today. http://goqnotes.com/34984/victim-of-wayne-community-college-shooting-was-gay-suspected-shooter-might-have-white-supremacist-links/

I didn't know the man and this might have just been a work dispute that went out of control, but still, it shows just how far we still have to go. If hate crime charges happen it will be a federal case as NC doesn't cover gays under hate crimes.
