The Other McCain has this story up, and it is horrific
Chicago police officials said Monday that a high speed hit-and-run that killed three men outside a well-known South Shore gay bar appears to be an intentional attack.
Now some groups are calling for the triple fatal to be investigated as a hate crime
See, some people are more interested in the motivation. To me running own three people and killing them would require a distinct level of hatred. But, are these three men more dead if their color or sexuality was a factor? Was the crime more brutal?
The horrific crash, captured on video, shows a driver of a sedan racing down 7700 South Jeffery, slamming into several men in front of The Jeffrey Pub, a long-time and very popular gay bar. . . .
[T]he men were in the middle of the street fighting at 5 a.m. . . .
The three victims were identified as 25-year old Donald Huey, 27-year-old Devonta Vivetter and 23-year-old Jaylen Ausley, who was a recent University of Michigan graduate. . . .A person inside the bar is suspected of leaving and mowing down the men on the street. That suspect is not in custody, but authorities have the vehicle they believe was used in the hit-and-run.
Obviously hate is a factor here you can watch the act which was caught on camera. But, again, some seem interested more in the motivation here. Police are investigating, but, again, whatever drove this abhorrent act is evil. But, it is all about labeling the crime a “hate” crime to some
The I-Team spoke with Victoria Kirby York, the deputy executive director of the National Black Justice Coalition in Washington, which is calling for the incident to be investigated as an LGBTQ+ hate crime outside one of the oldest and longest continuously running Black gay bars in the nation.
OK, fine, but, again, is it any worse if we find out a White man was behind the wheel? Are the victims a different level of dead? No. This was a heinous act, and the perpetrator should get the death penalty. Stacy McCain makes an astute point about this
Based on the limited information we now have, it seems highly likely that the person who ran over these black gay men was also a black gay man, perhaps angry over whatever incident caused the fight outside the bar, so by what definition is this a “hate crime”? Here’s the video:
Fair warning, this is not easy to watch, please do so at your own discretion.
So, if Mr. McCain is correct, and a Gay Black man was driving, is the crime more evil? Less so? The same? And why the hell do we continue to play this game? Evil is evil!
