Right Wing Terrorism Watch - 3 homophobes launch a stone age style attack against a gay bar

Edited on Tue Mar-03-09 07:39 PM by ck4829

Three suspects are facing hate-crime charges after allegedly throwing rocks into a gay bar in an attack that injured two men, police said.

According to witnesses, one man held open the door to Robert's Lafitte bar Sunday night while the other two grabbed a 4-pound rock and a smaller rock that were apparently used as door stops and hurled them into the bar.

A 57-year-old Navy veteran was treated at a hospital for a gash on the back of his head. Another man was hit in the jaw but refused treatment.

Witnesses chased the three men after the attack and provided descriptions to police. Arrests were made after a sweep of the neighborhood, police said.

2. I never could undestand why

people that hate gays that much would do something that would get them thrown in jail where their dating opportunities are going to be of the same sex variety.
