...but the story of Jesse Dirkhising hasn't made a ripple in the national news. I wonder why? I wonder if it's because the victim is not a part of some politically protected sub-group, a special class deserving of extra government privileges?

I can tell you why it wasn't national news. It's because people are murdered everyday all around the country and we're already numb to that fact. And rapists and murderers are a protected sub-group with special privileges only when they're rich and famous.
If you know of any gay people that have been given extra government protection and rights, give me their number. Maybe they can help me and my partner get some kind of legally sanctioned recognition of our 15 year relationship.
p.s. Stevie rules!
