Homophobic attacks must be stopped.
If the 60 year old was coming on to the straight 30 year old who is homeless, therefore was probably asleep at the time (was he sexually molested, raped by the 60 year old?) then the gay one got exactly what he deserved.

Also, is that why the dogs are being abandoned, after each of these people gets locked up there is a spare dog?
