OREGON: Four Year Prison Sentence For Brutal Attack Over "Gay Hairstyle"

Brandon Sanchez, 21, has been sentenced to four years in an Oregon prison after attacking another man for having a supposedly "gay hairstyle."

Sanchez apparently targeted Mark Bryant, 20, because he showed up at an Aug. 11 party with his hair gelled into a faux hawk, or fake mohawk. Bryant was in a coma for 22 days, had part of his skull temporarily removed to relieve pressure on his brain from swelling and now -- five months after the attack -- wears a patch over his right eye because he can't see clearly out of it. In recent weeks, he's started to walk again. "I'd never wish this upon anyone," Sanchez said. "I'm sorry for all the pain I've caused in your family. ...I've been praying for you." Bryant then asked something he's always wondered about the attack: "Your honor, I have a question he never answered before: Why?" "I was stupid," Sanchez responded. "I wish I could tell you an answer."

1. Disgusting.

Four years isn't long enough, but at least that hooligan is off of the streets.

2. oh my god. a haircut.

that's what the imaginary horrors of the all powerful Gay do to people.

and what mr sanchez doesn't realize{or perhaps he does now} is that he was programmed to respond this way.
by the world around him. none of it true, and all of it focused on a big lie.

now the young mr sanchez gets to go to jail.

3. And Straights Wonder Why...

there is all this anger at their bullshit. Over a fucking haircut. Four years isn't long enough, but hopefully they'll keep this creep off the streets the whole time.
