This happens because religious leaders preach hate and the Bible’s intollerance of homosexuality. The religious leaders do not lobby against divorce, just same sex marriages. You want to protect marriage, then prevent divorce. The penalty for divorce in the Bible is death. They teach hate against us, not people who get divorced. Unfortunately they are hypocrites. It is a sad state of affairs. That is why women and gays need equal rights and protection under the law. They social positions will change with time, just as it did with racial issues.

I concur with Sarrellec. Religious tyranny must be stopped if we are to be treated equally in this god[darn] country (or any country for that matter).

This is the slippery slope of disliking something or prejudging a group of people..Some one out there will take it and RUN with it! This kid has been picking up things that he sees on television he sees our own president say that he thinks a marriage is only between a man and a woman.. making us seem not legitimate. He sees all this and he gets the impression this is justified! there are no half measures of hate!! Some may just disagree or some may say it is immoral.. once you pass that judgment people like this 20 year old pick up on that and interpret in their own way. we need to be the country we tell people we ARE! STOP THIS!

The DA “may” add a hate crime charge? DEFINITELY ADD IT, FOR GOD’S SAKE! It was an unprovoked murder based on sexual orientation! Of course it was a hate crime! Seek the maximum punishment for this piece of filth.

People make me sick. They spew anti-gay rhetoric, gay bash and murder gays, and then they try to make themselves out to be the victims.

isn’t organized religion just a wonderful thing?
All judeo/christianity has done since its inception is promote and provoke violence.
The Middle East has been and will continue to be hell on earth due to the judeo/christian religion.
In our own country, because of religion, we have seen the violence of freeing slaves, letting women vote and the slaughtering of gay people. Why?
JUDEO/CHRISTIAN RELIGION.
WHEN are we going to insist that the Constitution of the United States be enforced regarding freedom of religion–freedom from the excuse of the judeo/christians absolute conviction they have the inalienable right to IMPOSE their beliefs onto others.
My definition of oppression: Other people imposing their worldview on the rest of us.
Christian definition of oppression: Being prevented from imposing their worldview on the rest of us.
The Judeo/Christian religion in this country MUST be subdued.
I, for one, am tired of living in a theocracy driven and maintained by religious zealots that are any equal of any Middle Eastern cesspool.

Put DeLee under the jail! I can’t WAIT to hear about how he was abused and had a hard life and perhaps touched in an inappropriate way, which is why he had to shoot the victim.

Whatever…DeLee will be someone’s punk or pit bitch in prison. Hope he learns to enjoy getting porked on a regular basis.

This is a great day for the Catholic and Mormon churches as well as the Religious Right. It is just one more tragic day for Christians, gay, bisexual, straight and transgendered.

This is only the tip of what our Religious establishments, who supported yes on prop 8, have brought. Families are split, friends divided and economic warfare at its finest. I wonder what God they really worship.

Is the message sinking in yet? I’m sure its just a matter of time before some castrated poster starts talking about all the sympathy and compassion we should be showing for the murderer. Get a clue people, this is war and people die in wars. How many candlelight vigils do we have to hold before this finally hits home? Arm yourselves, take self-defense courses because the next life you save might be your own or someone you love.
