    I really hope he wasn’t killed over his sexuality.

      His husband posted on social media that the neighbors had openly harassed them with homophobic language and threatened to burn their house down before and the cops did nothing.

      Someone put the skull of one of their dogs out in plain view, and when they were crying the neighbor came over and killed him. He said Jonathan protected him and saved his life.

      If this isn’t a hate crime (regardless of what fucking Texas cops say) I’ll eat my hat.

      This one hit me harder than I was expecting.

      It’s Texas. People get killed for no reason at all.

          Working on it. You’d be surprised how many people in other states fail to follow through.
