The local Miami media is making a huge deal out of this because the victim thought he was a woman.

Every homicide is a tragedy, but the local media couldn't care less about most shootings and murders. This is getting overwhelming coverage.

If the guy had beaten a normal man or woman to death I’d certainly support the death penalty for him...unless he had a damn good reason (e.g.,self defense). The fact that he beat a freak to death wouldn’t cause me to support a less serious penalty for him.

from link:

Police said they do not consider Dos Passos’s death a hate crime, but some are calling for prosecutors to add a hate-crime enhancement to the charges against Gibert. “We have no evidence indicating that she was targeted solely based on her sexuality and/or gender,” Officer Christopher Bess, a police spokesman, told the Herald.

The killer was out on probation - should have been in jail.

Man beats homeless man to death.

Stupid article uses “she” and “her” to describe a man.

“The local Miami media is making a huge deal out of this because the victim thought he was a woman.”

You can tell by the way this is written the author just wanted to use female pronouns for this guy as much as possible. Why refer to that clown as “she”?

53-year-old Gregory Gibert

Looks like a devil.

Gibert grabbed a metal pipe and began to hit her multiple times across the head and face, according to the arrest report. After the beating, Gilbert allegedly tossed the pipe in a trash can and fled the scene.

In the report police noted the severity of the beating. In addition to the trauma to her head and face, two wooden sticks were jammed up Dos Passos' nose, and she had a puncture wound to her chest, according to the report.

No MAGA hats were recovered at the scene of the crime.

Has Dos Passos written any good books lately?

One of the most annoying--and Truth subverting--defects of contemporary journalism is its addiction to a herd mentality.

Not only do journalists conform to groupthink and peer pressure, but apparently they tend to be too lazy even to try to root out the Truth.

They immediately repeat the most banal zeitgeist groupthink concepts, words, and phrases, apparently without giving them any thought--certainly not any original thought--

And this at a time when Truth and honest journalism are needed as never before!

Maybe he thought he was picking up a chick... The embarrassing surprise caused him to fly into a rage... (?)

About 40 years ago, a friend was on vacation in New Zealand.

Apparently they wandered into a seedy area - with bars/clubs

Anyways, some guy apparently thought he was, ummm, renting a “lady of the evening” as it were

Then the would be customer found out that the “lady” was in fact a man pretending to be a woman ... and began breaking the bones of the “lady” during a beating

My friend saw this happen across the street - told me he could hear the bones breaking (yikes)

Whenever I read stories like this, I’m reminded of that old story and wondering if that’s what happened

“The local Miami media is making a huge deal out of this because the victim thought he was a woman.”

Apparently his killer found out he wasn’t...”upskirt surprise”.

Andrea Doria I'd rather see on the floor of the Atlantic than seeing him being mentally ill!

More people died scuba diving to the Andrea Doria (the ship, not the mentally ill man) than got killed on the ship.

Prayers to HIS family. He was cured of his mental illness!

Jokes aside, the guy should be sat in Ol' Sparky for this crime!!

Yeah, mentally ill people don’t deserve this. That was wrong.
