The question is...

Just because one dirtbag murders a homosexual dirtbag, does that make him a "homophobic" dirtbag?

The media is quick to label people homophobic, even those who just think the lifestyle is kinda ooky.

Here's another topic. This inmate murdered a fellow inmate. If it turns out he did it because the priest was homosexual, will he be charged with a hate crime? Why are crimes against minorities considered hate crimes, while a trailer trash guy killing his ex-girlfriend's new squeeze is not? Both crimes involve an equal amount of hate.
