H8te Crime
Filed under: Legal Matters > Politik
Early this week, a man wearing a "No on 8" button was beaten with a "Yes on 8" lawn sign in Torrance, CA.
Police are characterizing the assault as a possible hate crime.
The beater, 23-year old Joseph Storm, is scheduled to appear in the Torrance Superior Court today, Wednesday, for arraignment on a felony charge of a hate crime assault and a misdemeanor count for interfering with another's exercise of civil rights.
Authorities did not identify the victim.
However, it was mentioned that Storm had known the victim since junior high.
In the attack, Storm allegedly knocked the victim down with the Yes on 8 sign, then punched him in the face and choked him. He also called the victim a 'derogatory name for homosexuals' during the beating.
So sad.
Say NO to H8te!!!
But it's ok to hang Palin in West Hollywood, Lefties suck!
do i even wanna get started?
Gay, gay I say!
THATS PATHETIC!
awesome!!
beat them all!!!

Re: Bitch make sandwich! – OH….but if a black man is hung like they did sarah, it's a hate crime cause he's black.
such FUCKING BULLSHIT
Re: SBFREAKSgirl925 – YES!! GET STARTED!!
Re: Bitch make sandwich! – i sent you a reply on ur hotmail
Please
YOU SHOULD ALSO MENTION THE "HANGING" of SARAH PALIN IN NORTH HOLLYWOOD, MARIO!
Hate comes in all forms and all people deserve equal rights. But, YOU don't subscribe to that do YOU? You only subscribe to protecting your rights and beliefs.
SAY YEPPER TO 8
THAT'S GAY!!!! I AM OUT IN 10 PPLS!
I *HEART* FOXNEWS!!!!
"Storm said he didn't know what the sign said, but got angry because the other man was littering, which is why he assaulted him, Wilson added."
aaahahhahaha
riiiiiiight!
That's sad.
I *HEART* FOXNEWS! FAIR AND BALANCED!
how come this is considered a hate crime yet when i'm marching with my yes on 8 sign and i get beat up, then i was in the wrong for not voting no on 8?
say YES!
read the Bible, it is a sin!
gay people screw it up for everyone….there wouldn't be any controversary if there weren't any stupid gays
of course they can hang Palin on a noose…..it's art. *insert sarcasm*
theres a house by mine with Yes on 8 signs, there is another handmade sign that says "# of signs stolen 14"
guess it goes both ways
stupid fags
Little pockets of hate must be eradicated! Believe what you want but keep your hands to yourself.

Re: Bitch make sandwich! – Hey Smallfry, you sure you're on the right side….I mean you didn't even know Sen Ted Stevens was a repube. Moron.

Obama/Biden 08!!! Oh what will Smallfry do when a black man is voted into the white house on Nov. 4th?! Muaaahahahaha!!!
Re: Fashionista Hottie – omg that's so mean………are you a FUCKING RETARD?? what goddamn rock do you live under?
Yeah, and what about all of the YES on 8 protesters getting beaten up or getting egged or having swastikas painted all over their house? it's two ways you idiot! My Yes on 8 friends have gotten beaten up and I don't see anything about that on here.
Palin in a noose is not an act of violence idiots!
How dare that yes to 8 person! Waterboard him! The Constitution was not written for heterosexuals only, you fucktard yes to 8 people. The Constitution was written for EVERYONE regardless. So go pray to your invisable god and teach your kids about creationism and talking snakes. You have a right to teach your kids about a crackpot religion, so gays should have the rights they are entitled to as well.
OH noooo… that's really sad!!!
…. Disgusting… Violence is never the answer… It's so sad because Words can hurt you more than any physical action ever could… the Physical pain will go away… But our words can affect a person's life forever!!! THINK THINK THINK…. Tolerance…we're all equal!!! … truly sad!!! 
AND ANOTHER THING… hating on someone for their beliefs in WRONG, whether it's targeted to gays, Sarah Palin or that Elizabeth chick from the View. If you don't agree that's fine, but IT'S NO EXCUSE TO HATE!
I laugh. hahahaha
LA TIMES RELEASE THE TAPE!
That is not called for. This is what gets me with all of these "but I'm so tolerant about everything else" fakers. They aren't. In reality they are just an inch away from violence if you push them enough. No on 8!
I find it really quite amusing that so many of these postings come from people who are against homosexuality. Do you realize what site you are on? Do you know what "Queen of All Media" means? And the man who attacked the victim is more than likely gay himself and just too scared to admit it. Don't hate, appreciate! I LOVE PEREZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ VOTE NO TO PROP 8!
the sign is made out of paper and a very thin stick. LOL.
So I can just see the gay guy with the button saying , oh you're hurting me! Stop assaulting me with a piece of paper you big mean rightie…
just sayin…
Re: Bushwack –
hahaha NOT going to happen.
this is just as stupid as interracial people not being allowed to get married decades ago, it's just idiotic, gay people will be allowed to marry this year or in 5, but it will happen.
all these religion freaks that want to protect traditional marriages should start by banning DIVORCE, that's where most marriages end up anyways.
I point and laugh at all the ignorant, simple minded religious freaks.
Re: Menumberone – no fucktard, that doesn't represent violence at all.
I'm from the east so let me get this straight:
YES on 8 equals straight
NO on 8 equals gay
Re: sweetpiece – one of the biggest haters on this board preaching tolerance. L O L
Re: Butterfly08 – boy, you hit that nail right on the head!!!
Hate Crimes are terrible but worse is ignorance, too many ignorant people post hurtful comments here as well. May they find the peace they lack and may hate crimes never go unpunished.
GLAD HE BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF THAT FAG!
I WILL ONLY VOTE NO ON 8 IF LEZBOS PROMISE ME SOME GIRL TO GIRL LIVE ACTION , DON'T WORRY I WON'T BOTHER YOU WITH MY DICK, JUST LET ME WATCH AND TAKE CARE OF MYSELF!

Re: Lick/Fondle/Touch my Teats – just looking to your picture that u post to comment on perez site. i can see the type of person you are.low life scum trash piece of shit.do u have a college degree?probably one more uneducated scum to fck peoples lifes like a bug.
Perez Hon, Right here on your website you have posters bragging about how many YES on 8 signs they've ripped out of people lawns - actually entering PRIVATE property and STEALING - I bet there is another SIDE to the story that you are not reporting - again - you homo's are showing your asses with hanging Sarah Palin in West Hollywood as art - yeah, it's art when it's a left wing issue - when it's a repbublican - it's a hate crime. See, the issue with 8 is - you guys STOLE it - and the PISSED ALOT of people off - the people have spoken - right here in San Diego County - the support is overwhelming - more YES on 8 than NO - so yes, the people will vote - and you will find that convincing the MAJORITY that two men who enjoy ANAL intercourse - or lesbians with strap on's need special treatment - is not going to happen - the majority will now cow tow to some whiney, sue happy, homosexuals who want to shove their lifestyle down our throats - yeah I voted - and we cast TWO votes striking down GAY marriage once and for all! YES on 8 BABY all the way
However Perez, you FAIL to acknowledge the beating of a Prop 8 Supported In San Diego county just last month! You call it Prop H8te, but really, all you are doing is hating right back. If you were a real tolerant person, you would respect the civil rights that the Pro Prop 8 Supportes have by not hating on them. You are so blinded, it's not even funny.
Re: Lick/Fondle/Touch my Teats – you heart Fox News; I ♥ Karl Rove
They hung Sarah Palin in effigy in Hollywood? Wow, fuck you Perez for not saying anything about this.
And it's not always about HATE. I don't HATE any gays but I don't support gay marriage. Who's lying about the proposition now?
I WAS NEVER A HOMOPHOBES UNTIL GAYS MADE ME!!! YOU FAGS DID IT TO YOURSELF!!!
Re: hot bloody cum covered poo – Hey, it's about time, no? I still don't like Frogger Fucker though! Tee hee!
.
btw….your name is so gross! Sweetin' it up…how about "Hot blooded full of cum over you"?
.
Now I think that is a better name. Wink!
Re: Lick/Fondle/Touch my Teats – Why?
Re: Debaucherina – and NO where in our constitution does it say ANAL sex between two men is a RIGHT OK - get off of it - it's a money grab! besides go live in another country if you ca't live with a MAJORITY rule - they STOLE it - homosexual marriage is a sham and churches will be SUED and fined for HATE speech - YES on 8 ALL THE WAY - and leave the fucking constitution out of it!!!!
Re: Bitch make sandwich! – UMMMM THAT WASN'T A REAL PERSON YOU ASS!!! When you start figuring out the difference between REAL and MAKE-BELIEVE (eg. cartoons, drawings, etc.) please feel free to make a valid point. I didn't like that person's choice in expressing his/herself with the Palin thing, but here in the U.S. you are allowed to make political statements that are controversial–AS LONG AS YOU DON'T HURT SOMEONE LIKE THAT RIGHTY H8R.
Re: JulesinSD – dayummm! good post!
hmm you forgot to mention that the no on 8 guy stuck hi smiddle finger to the other guy and picked up the sign and threw it in the street…come on get all the facts.
Re: sweetpiece – That would work too.
I hope they throw the book at him. What an asshole.
Re: melissajo – Because Prop 8 is basically making it ok to gay bash forever, dipshit.
and for all the other people who are against Prop 8 to "protect the sanctity of marriage" why don't you do us all a favor and GO WORK ON THE FUCKING 50% DIVORCE RATE BEFORE YOU START GIVING PEOPLE SHIT FOR WANTING TO MAKE THEIR PARTNERSHIP LEGAL. fucking christ.
Re: JulesinSD – I live in San Diego and all I EVER see is No on 8 signs. And the commercials playing here are OVERWHELMINGLY No on 8.
This stupid proposition is supported by HATE!!! Just read all the comments and you have the answer! This is no religious issue or some other bullshit! It's just HATE!!
Re: JulesinSD – 56, MY family cast two NO votes for 8, so we balanced your ignorant, small-minded, homophobic votes right out.
Re: slutmuffin – Thank you SO much for clearing this up!!! You know Perez, you really should tell both sides if your going to tell at all. you know SIX Yes on 8 Signs have been stolen out of MY yard? Did you ALSO know that stealing a political sign is a FELONY? I wouldn't brag about the criminals that are bashing Prop 8!
Re: Lick/Fondle/Touch my Teats – one more uneducated low life trash scum.do u have a college degree?this kind of people like u disgust me and i would like to kill u to make the world a better place.youre not human youre just a bug.so please do me a favor and die;thank you.
Re: charmoll – Hell yeahhh LA Times has to release that tape…. !!!!!! Is it that bad???? Are you seriously voting for this guy?? If a leftist newspaper hesitates to release this video, I wouldn't risk it!!!
WOW. How hypocritical. SEE? The liberal media is SO bias one way! Perez, what about the people who had YES on 8 signs that were egged and had rocks thrown at them? What about the lady who cussed out 8 year olds who held signs with their parents? You forgot to mention that!!! Report it both ways buddy.
As for the constitution. Did everyone forget that in 2000, we voted no to gay marriage on prop 22 by 61% of the vote, and 4 judges overturned the peoples vote? Why don't you report that and see how unfair this all is.
man. You claim that YEs on 8 is close minded people, but it is just the reverse, when you stral peoples signs and other things if they don't agree with you. Freedom of Speech and religion are in the constitution, and you no on 8 people are trying to take that away form us!
YES on 8!
Re: JulesinSD – Fuck you!! Woman who enjoy anal sex shouldn't get married either! Shit! Neither does the constitution say that normal sex is right either!!
Re: Debaucherina –
You're a turd. You must also think that OBAMA won't tax your smelly turd ass.
.
You haven't a clue the ramifications of this proposition getting passed. The idea behind the proposition is OK. But the way it is written (and if passed) sets a precedence that will challenger ALL laws approved by a majority of the voting citizens in the state.
Well this just makes me very proud of my community….hope that guy stays out of neighboring Redondo Beach, our mayor is gay…
"Early this week, a man wearing a "No on 8" button was beaten with a "Yes on 8" lawn sign in Torrance, CA"
I lol'd
Hahahahahahahahahahah That's some funny shit! Gotta love these homos like Perez. You have fags in West Hollywood hanging Palin from a noose and that's all about love right Perez? McCain on fire in a chimney, again, all about love? Right homo? Too funny. They should turn the video of the guy getting his ass beat with the prop 8 sign into America's Funniest Videos! Hahahahahahah! Fags suck! Hahahahaha!
McCain/Palin 08
Re: McCainIsMyHero – Do you live in Hillcrest? Because YES on 8 is ALL over San Diego!
Re: Julianne – heehee. actually i do….and by the looks of your spelling and grammar, you have what? GED i assume?
Re: JulesinSD – Wow! I am 25 years old and hate politics. I almost didn't vote, but this campaign is insane… as are you! I am so SOOO excited that I am voting if only to cancel out your hateful vote. Just loving that your argument is based on sex–that "two men who enjoy ANAL intercourse - or lesbians with strap on's" do not deserve equal treatment. So you believe that the merits of marriage are based on a peen and a vag? What an excellent foundation for your own marriage. Instead of looking at personalities, you should look at the size and shape of each peen and go from there. Just hope for the rest on all the other unimportant stuff (love, personality, character). This is why you yes for h8rs are such a joke. Your arguments suck, you can't accept equality, and you care about something that you don't have to personally be involved in at all. I feel sorry for you, your upbringing, and your offspring who you will no doubt coach to hate as well. Good luck, and God Bless. I hope you find peace in your life enough to leave other people alone.
Re: McCainIsMyHero – Yeah if you live down in Hillcreste, Mission Hills (swishin' hills) or North park! Which… big surprise… is mostly gay and has the highest rate of registered sex offenders in the city of San Diego - shocking that all the sexual deviants would choose to live in mostly GAY areas - so yes, if you live in Homo friendly downtown- you'd see a lot of no on 8 - so fuck you too - deal with it - no one cares you like to or support those who like to take it up the ass!
Re: JulesinSD – what are u doing here?go to the foxnews.com spread your hate.
Someone should get a No on Prop 8 sign and stick up Joseph Storm's ass….but then again, he'd probably like it because everyone that's voting yes on that bullshit is a closeted homosexual.
Re: McCainIsMyHero –
I live in San Diego too, BUT just because you see more signs and commericals doesn't mean it'll win, it just means more money was spent by the people for no on 8.
/is voting no, but doesn't really care
Re: Lick/Fondle/Touch my Teats – wow, now that was some hate for ya baby!
Sad, LA, well if you can hang a effigy of Palin with a noose, what do you expect.
*
Hate is hate, but the indifference opened the door for this…
*
Boobama wins……8 wins….ironic, sadly ironic
Re: ashbert13 – Are you joking - the ENTIRE argument for homo marriage is based on sex - the sole criteria for the argument FOR homo marriage is sex - and yes, it's revolting - and yes, we don't wanna know about it - ever - so take your civil unions and shut the fuck up already!
Re: Julianne – awww…hit a nerve? are you living with two mommies or two daddies?
YEP ON 8!!
Re: Julianne – CAN YOU FUCKING PUT TWO SPACES BETWEEN YOUR RETARDED SENTENCES? where is mommy? she should be monitoring your computer time.
Re: Julianne – WOW, WANTING SOMEONE KILLED OVER A COMMENT THEY LEFT ON PEREZ? PLEASE, SHUT UP! I HATE A COUPLE OF FUCKERS ON HERE TOO BUT I DON'T WANT A HIT ON THEM
Re: hot bloody cum covered poo – fuck that 14yr old. i'll torture her.
Re: JulesinSD – You're such a fucking joke! It's not revolting about sex! I wouldn't get married just for sex! How stupid can you get???
Re: crispycakes – 82 - No, I live in mission valley and work downtown at 2nd and Broadway. No on 8 is everywhere. And I applaud it. You can't choose who you fall in love with, and the governments needs to keep its big fucking nose out of people's personal lives. That includes staying the fuck out of the abortion issue as well. NOBODY should be able to tell me what I can or cannot do with my uterus, or who I can marry.
Re: ashbert13 – 84 - I couldn't have said it better myself. Thank you.
Re: JulesinSD – whats your obsession with anal sex?????thats funny.why are u so worried about anal sex?have u ever been raped in the butt?
THIS IS JUST A RUMOR!!! But I really hope is true…!!!————– VOTE MCCAIN/PALIN 08'———————————-
Doug Ross gets a note from a reliable source:
——Saw a clip from the tape. Reason we can’t release it is because statements Obama said to rile audience up during toast. He congratulates Khalidi for his work saying “Israel has no God-given right to occupy Palestine” plus there’s been “genocide against the Palestinian people by Israelis.”———————————————————————-
It would be really controversial if it got out. Tha’s why they will not even let a transcript get out.
If the above is true, no wonder the LA Times won’t release it. However, if its true that tape needs released more than ever. I trust Doug, but right now the above quote is only rumor. It will remain to be only rumor until we have evidence. We can not have evidence without the tape being released.
LA TIMES RELEASE THE FUCKING VIDEO!!!!! IT'S OUR RIGHT TO KNOW WHO OUR MORE-THAN-LIKELY NEXT PRESIDENT TRULY IS???
Re: JulesinSD – 85, just because no one has touched YOUR clit in ten years doesn't give you the right to bad mouth gay people. Someone needs to beat YOU over the head with a No on 8 sign, and if you tell me where you live, I will meet you after work and do it myself.
