Members Keith Posted February 2, 2006 Members Share Posted February 2, 2006 NEW BEDFORD, Mass. -- Several people were shot at a gay bar in New Bedford early Thursday morning. NewsCenter 5's Gail Huff reported that at least three people were targeted, and one of them suffered serious injuries. It happened at Puzzle's Lounge on Front Street, a bar connected to a small multi-family home. Neighbors said an armed man walked in to the bar, shot three people and fled. He is still at large. Police were investigating reports that the attack may have been a hate crime. There was no official word on any arrests. Investigators cordoned off the area and were gathering information about the attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MzHuggable Posted February 2, 2006 Members Share Posted February 2, 2006 That's just senseless. I don't care how much you disagree with a lifestyle, it does not give you the right to act as Judge, Jury & Executioner. I hope this isn't really just because the patrons of the club were gay, I know it doesn't make it "better" if it wasn't a hate crime, but I just cannot stand anybody being targeted because of skin color or lifestyle.

Members Roman Posted February 6, 2006 Members Share Posted February 6, 2006 People like this let hate consume them and take over their soul. Well, the guy is now in the hospital, having shot and killed two more people before being shot twice in the head. One of them was a cop. The guy is a Neo-Nazi. The jackass died today. Good riddance.

Members NaVell J. Lee Posted February 6, 2006 Members Share Posted February 6, 2006 I know this is harsh to say, but i'm glad he is gone. I would never wish something like that on anyone, but what he did was arrogant and everything else of the sort. It COULD happen to anyone, and that is the scar part of the whole issue.

Members Ryan Posted February 6, 2006 Members Share Posted February 6, 2006 I honestly don't see why people have to be that way. Whether or not you agree with another person's lifestyle doesn't give you the right to go and just kill them. May he burn in hell for the pain he has caused.

Members Roman Posted February 6, 2006 Members Share Posted February 6, 2006 The leaders of these hate groups get these lonely young kids and, knowing that they were probably taught that crap in the home, push them to do things like this. American History X is a motion picture that really shows both sides of what that kind of hate can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
