On November 14 the body of a gay 19 year old was found a few miles away from the town in which he was residing in called Caguas. He was a very well known person in the gay community of Puerto Rico, and very loved. He was found on the site of an isolated road in the city of Cayey, he was partially burned, decapitated, and dismembered, both arms, both legs, and the torso.
This has caused a huge reaction from the gay community here, but its a difficult situation. Never in the history of Puerto Rico has a murder been classified as a hate crime. Even though we have to follow federal mandates and laws, many of the laws in which are passed in the USA such as Obama’s new bill, do not always directly get practiced in Puerto Rico. The police agent that is handling this case said on a public televised statement that "people who lead this type of lifestyle need to be aware that this will happen”
To be fair, all of the details of this situation are not fully known. But the contrast between what happened today in Washington and the news of this child's murder couldn't be more stark
While those who claim to be working in God's name went to Washington to push a lie (that has been exposed time and time again regarding hate crimes legislation), our lgbt children seem to be in danger on a worldwide level.
Just who do you think God is paying attention to?
