See 72-year old Michigan man by the name of Andrew Anthos will be spending the rest of his life in a wheelchair after a homo-hating thus beat him with a pipe.

1. This is really about life in NeoCon America
People who are different or weak or poor have to acccept that there is a price to pay for not being "normal", strong, and having money in the bank. Unfortunate? Yeah, sometimes. But that's life in the real world man. If the old guy hadn't been going around looking gay this probably wouldn't have happened to him. :sarcasm:

2. What's worse...
is that those hateful jerks think they're the ones who get to decide what "normal" is, and always think they are "Mainstream America" even when their viewpoints are so far out of whack with the average they're candidates for therapy (or prison).

3. Damn.
:cry:

All he was doing was riding a bus and a nutcase followed him to attack him. And now the bigot is running around free and this man is paralyzed from the neck down.
