In Texas: A man was Beaten outside of a Gay Bar


This feels like a trend in Texas.

Over the weekend, a young man was beaten by 6 men outside of a gay club. One of the 6 men used a baseball bat.

KVIA.com reports:

El Paso police officers said an investigation revealed the victim was waiting for a ride outside the Old Plantation Night Club on 301 South Ochoa Street when he was attacked around 12:20 a.m. Saturday.


Police said the victim, only described as a 22-year-old Hispanic man, was involved in a verbal confrontation with six other men.


The fight escalated to punching and kicking and police said one of the six men even used a bat to hit the victim.


A friend of the victim tried to intervene, but was stopped by one of the six men when he struck her Jeep with a bat and damaged the windshield, according to police.
The young man is in critical condition.

My thoughts and prayers are with this poor guy. I hope they catch these gay bashers and bring them to justice.

Truly the only thing these homophobic assholes will respond to is violence. I know that revenge isn't the way but I'd love to take a baseball bat to each one of those six guys' head.

I'm very laid back and easy going. I like to meet people, read, talk about politics, culture and life. I am a huge comic book fan (X-Men family and Wonder Woman) I also want to say that I am a proud black gay man...no 'down low' drama here
