    What is wrong with the world, why does a 13 year old have to beat up someone just for being different. What planet are his parents on?

    You need to reevaluate your life if you think it is OK to go around parks looking for a fight. Seriously?

    I'M FROM NEW YORK CITY.

    I am reallyyyyyyyy surprised by this. I always thought NYC was a really big LGBTQ friendly place. But keep in mind that on any given workday, there are 16 mil people in Manhattan (just Manhattan, without Queens, Brooklyn, the Bronx, Staten Island). So, I don't know if the rate of attacks in NYC is still lower than the national average?

    At least the comments aren't all "Gays eet poop so they shud die in a hole fagguts" I'm not trying to tread around the main issue, I mean it's absolutely horrible that this still happens. But 1. They were drunk and 2. This is a rare case of the victim actually getting out pretty okay instead of sent to the hospital within an inch of his life left.

    Not as far away as I'd hoped.
    It really depends on the neighborhood... and Brooklyn's not quite as friendly as Manhattan. I've definitely seen drunk teenage shitheads in Prospect Park before. :dry:

    I'm from Jackson Heights, Queens...so I guess I can't apply that to everywhere. I believe you when I say I have driven THROUGH Bed-Stuy and Crown Heights...bad idea ahahah :grin:
