What I want to know is why has his sexuality become the centre of this story, that's overshadowing the fact he's a murderer !!!

. The media are having a field day trying to promote this so called "discrimination"

,shall we all forget he's committed a horrible crime ?. This is insane! . Why not have sympathy for the victim's family.
If a straight criminal was convicted ,the story wouldn't be revolved around his sexuality .
I think it's a far stretch to make assumptions ,and America is confusing in general as every state has a different law and different punishment .
For e.g I've heard crime stories where someone might get lethal injection for doing disgusting things,but another person who equally does heinous crimes will just get a few years in prison That's the system for you .
All round there's inconsistencies whether the convicted is black,white ,female,male ,gay,straight

I've seen and heard different punishments for every type of person .
