Quote:
'The murder was committed because of the victim's sexual orientation and because of the defendant's perception of that status and the victim's association with a person and a group of that status,' prosecutors alleged in a statement.
They said that Issa, who has been charged with one count of premeditated murder, used a shotgun in the attack.

According to that article, Issa told police that he had found his wife's body, then encountered his son who threatened him with a knife. 'A shooting then took place,' it claimed.
But Operations-Valley Bureau Homicide Detective John Doerbecker, quoted in the article, denied that account. 'The suspect made incriminating statements implicating himself in the death of [the son] and was arrested for murder,' he told the paper.
'He claimed [the son] was armed with a knife, and there was no knife to be found [there]. It was a horrible family tragedy.'
A report by The Daily News on Friday quoted neighbor Maria Gomez as saying she'd heard Issa and his son frequently shouting at one another in recent months.

That man is not a Christian. At least not a real one, he is a stupid, ignorant homophobe who should rot in prison for the travesty he commited.

My family are Christians, but they love me. Also they know that killing someone is a sin, not being gay.

Someone should shoot him for being a Christian, let's see how much controversy that would cause.

Exactly. And if he really does believe in heaven/hell/God, he will be burning in hell for what he did.

Leviticus 18:22, "You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination."1
Leviticus 20:13, "If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their bloodguiltness is upon them."
1 Corinthians 6:9-10, "Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, 10 nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God."
Romans 1:26-28, "For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, 27 and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error. 28 And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper."
Sorry honey, but if your parents actually do accept and support you, they are not Christians. They're theists.

Someone doesn't simply burn in hell just for believing there is a hell or heaven. I wonder why no one takes Alice's Adventures in Wonderland seriously but this collection of fairytales is hailed as the sacred book by which all should abide.

None of the New Testament verses you quoted allows killing gays tho. I don't get why you quoted it. And Leviticus is in Torah which is the Holy Book of Judaism, so nice try.
OP: RIP to the poor guy. I guess this was an honor killing which used to be common in some cultures, but now only a few people do things like that.
