Faggots are suicidal sexual degenerates who hate themselves.
NEW YORK (AP) — A gunman who police say used homophobic slurs
before firing a fatal shot point-blank into a man's face on a
crowded Manhattan street early Saturday appeared in court on
Sunday to face a charge of murder as a hate crime.
"It was a quickie. He shot him and he went straight to the
ground," a bouncer at a nearby club told the New York Post.
"Half his body was lying on the sidewalk and half was on the
street."
Elliot Morales, who appeared in Manhattan Criminal Court on
Sunday, is charged with murder as a hate crime and weapons
charges, The Wall Street Journal reported. Morales was ordered
held without bail pending another court appearance on Thursday.
His attorney, Reginald Sharpe, could not be reached for comment.
Authorities said Morales used a silver revolver to kill 32-year-
old Mark Carson as he walked with a companion in in lower
Manhattan. Morales, 33, trailed and taunted the men, yelling
antigay slurs and asking one of them, "You want to die
tonight?," according to the New York Times.
Police found Carson fatally wounded on the pavement. He was
pronounced dead on arrival at Beth Israel Hospital. Morales, who
was arrested in 1998 for attempted murder, was caught a few
streets down by an officer who heard a description on his radio
and spotted him, New York Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said.
In Greenwich Village, a neighborhood long known as a bedrock of
the gay rights movement, Kelly called the killing a hate crime.
"There were no words that would aggravate the situation, and the
victim did not know the perpetrator," he said.
About 15 minutes before the bloodshed, Kelly said the gunman was
seen urinating outside an upscale restaurant a few blocks from
the Stonewall Inn, the site of 1969 riots that helped give rise
to the modern gay-rights movement when patrons at a gay bar
reacted to police harassment.
Saturday's shooting is at least the fourth violent attack in two
weeks believed to be motivated by anti-gay bias, police told CNN.
According to Kelly, there have been 22 bias-motivated events
this year, up "significantly" from 13 this time last year, he
added.
The shooting stunned a city where, in many neighborhoods, same-
sex couples walk freely holding hands.
