TO: The lowlife, cowardly, moronic, gerbil-nibbling, elephant-felching, baseball-bat-wielding, warthog-fucking, goddess-damned, homophobic animals that bashed my friend on Monday morning.
FROM: The self-appointed wielder of the righteous wrath of whatever god the respondents above worship.
So, you decided to have a little fun, did you? It’s a lark to lure someone to an isolated state park over the internet and then proceed to work him over with four of your buddies using baseball bats and nunchucks, is it? How brave you all are! One gay man requires five of you to beat down, does it?
Fuck you, you hamster-blowers! The friend who drove him to the hospital said he hadn’t seen so much blood since the last Elm Street movie. My friend required five stitches in his scalp because of you. If he hadn’t made it to his car, or (goddess forbid!) fallen, he’d probably be dead right now. But who cares, right? He was just another fag, right?
I simply can not fathom what twisted internal evil makes men act like this. Words fail me. May your friend heal quickly. May the scum that beat him reap the karma they so richly deserve.
Thank whatever diety you may or may not believe in he survived (I had a friend who didn’t).
Point the first - the fucking bastards will fry, if not through the justice system, through Hell, karma, or whatever else we may believe in. :mad:
Point the second - support him in any way you can, both for his physical ailments and for his non-physical ones.
Point the third - let’s all be careful out there. Meeting people from online is all well and good, but there are smart ways to do it and, obviously, not so smart ways.
Point the fourth - did I mention these FUCKING RAT BASTARDS will fry for this? :mad:
I concur with Esprix. JayJay, let him know that my prayers are with him, not for any of the homophobic garbage about “his sinful lifestyle,” but for his healing of body and spirit and for the prompt and thorough work of the law in catching and punishing his assailants. And that he find someone with whom he can share love without rendesvous such as the one at which he was bashed.
Jesus, (and I mean that in the exclamatory sense, not the prayerful sense) jayjay. That’s terrible to hear. I hope your friend heals quickly has no lasting effects.
I also hope the ratfucking bastards get what’s coming to them for what they did. Let us know if they find 'em, will you please?
Sorry jayjay, that’s seriously fucked up. Like mentioned above, all you singles take note and learn from this. There’s a safe and a not so safe way to do things. Be smart.
I don’t know if he even reported it. I haven’t spoken directly to him yet, since I just found out about this last night and don’t know where he’s staying at the moment (he’s living with his parents and closeted to them, so he decided it would be better to stay somewhere else for a few days rather than have to explain what happened). I missed yesterday’s paper and there was nothing about it in today’s.
And believe me, when I do talk to him he’s getting a lecture immediately after I find out if he’s really okay. I wish, I wish that when he mentioned the planned rendezvous in passing last weekend that my alarm bells had rung. But it was seriously a passing reference and didn’t even really register in my brain until I heard about what happened from a mutual friend.
Four men and a woman. The guy he was supposed to meet walked over to my friend’s truck and they talked for a minute or two, then the guy led him back over to his car. About 2/3 of the way there, all four doors on the car pop open and the rest of the scum got out. He tried to run back to his truck but the guy held onto him long enough for the rest of them to cover the distance. From what I understand, he eventually got away from them and ran back to his truck, although the woman managed to hang on to him. The friend whose house he drove to and who drove him to the emergency room said that my friend managed to slam her head against his door before she let go. So at least one was damaged in some minor way.
I’m still absolutely enraged when I think of the circumstances here. Every time I think that this area isn’t really as bad as its reputation, I’m eventually proved wrong. Carville had it right…Pennsylvania is Pittsburgh and Philadelphia with Alabama in between.
