Well that's not something you hear everyday.

What is it you may ask? In simple terms it is a legal defense in many states that attempts to justify killing someone because their homosexual advances put you into a temporary state of insanity that led to the murder.

I'm posting this cuz I just read an article about a dude in Texas who recently got off with 6 months jail and probation for murder with this defense. What in the actual fuck....

Omg! It's like 2018 nobody cares. Why do gay people have to tell everyone they're gay. Nobody cares about your sexuality. People need to stop making such a big deal out of things.

Sarcasm meter. People post things like "omg 2018 something something being gay doesn't matter. Stop making a big deal out of it". Then you see lovely stories like this in the news.
