Still OK to kill gays in CO.

Especially if you claim they "came on to you."

Montrose - Eight months after Kevin Hale's killing sparked fears that a hate crime had been committed in this Western Slope town, one of two men charged in Hale's death has pleaded guilty to manslaughter.

Adam Hernandez, 21, entered the plea in Montrose District Court on Thursday, and, as part of a plea agreement, will serve no more than eight years in prison for manslaughter and felony theft. He could serve as little as a term of probation after charges of felony murder, robbery, conspiracy to commit robbery and misdemeanor theft were dismissed in the plea agreement. . . .

Hernandez and 24-year-old Jason Fiske were charged with first- degree murder after Hale's body was found in a Montrose park July 31. Hernandez, Fiske and Hale had been at the same nearby pub the night before, and Hernandez said he told Fiske he wanted to beat up Hale because Hale, who was gay, had made sexual advances toward him.

Geesh. It's really that easy. No need to kill anyone over a pass. What is wrong with these hateful people?

Killing a gay guy is like kicking a dog. Not OK, but not a big deal, either. :sarcasm:
