Violent NYC Homophobe Picks Married West Point Gay Grads To Attack, Loses
I liked this story..
The first male same-sex couple to marry at West Point were in a Manhattan bodega in the upscale neighborhood of SoHo on Sunday when one of them was physically attacked by a man they say threw the first punch.
"It's hard to believe that in 2015 we would have to deal with anti-gay hate crimes in soho of all places but that's what happened today," Larry Lennox-Choate III wrote on Facebook.
An unidentified man about 40-years old "screamed anti-gay obscenities" at the couple then punched Larry's husband, Daniel Lennox-Choate, in the face.
"The guy who screamed anti-gay obscenities at us in a bodega before sucker-punching Danny?," Larry, who graduated West Point in 2009, explains, "He left covered in his own blood with his tail between his legs after I handled the situation and tossed him in the street like the coward loser he is."

"Aside from one fat lip and a sore punching arm, we are fine," the couple notes.
It's such a lovely story - 
I love it when a homophobe gets an ass whooping well deserved!
Warms my heart!
