i'm not saying that you have to have pity for the murderer? But the reason WHY he was given the death penalty is discriminatory

this basically says that gay killers are worse than straight killers solely because of their sexuality

And that has nothing to do with the issue at hand.

It really doesn't. No one is saying this man is not guilty or not deserving of a conviction, the issue is whether his conviction was decided because of the crime or because of his sexuality. If it's the latter, it sets a precedent that could allow for gay people to get sentenced based purely on their sexuality and not their crime.

Again, I'm gonna ask you to answer this question.

Yet if the story was "Heterosexual given severe sentence by gay judge for being straight" you'd be first in the queue to slag them off.

So predictable.
