Lots of people who call themselves fine upstanding Christians would be happy to do the same thing, and claim it as God's will.

Nope. It's called "Justice." God ain't got shit to do with it.

An Idaho man who killed a gay man by kicking him up to 30 times with steel-toed boots was sentenced on Wednesday by a federal judge to 28 years in prison, prosecutors said on Thursday.

In February, Kelly Schneider, 23, of Nampa, pleaded guilty to a federal hate crime for attacking Steven Nelson last year at a remote wildlife refuge while repeatedly using a homophobic slur, acting U.S. Attorney for Idaho Rafael M. Gonzalez said in a statement on Thursday. “Steven Nelson was assaulted, and later died, because he was gay,” Gonzalez said.

Schneider was also sentenced to 28 years in prison earlier this month on a state charge of first-degree murder in Nelson’s death, court records show.

Schneider’s federal sentence will be served concurrently with the state sentence, U.S. prosecutors said. He is being held in an Idaho jail until authorities determine where he will serve out the remainder of his sentence.

Poor guy RIP
Intolerance and craziness together are lethal.... the killer was lucky he didn't get a life sentence...

 

[Roudy]

What is the point. The guy committed a hate crime against a gay man and is now in federal prison for it.

 

[Divine Wind]

Lots of people who call themselves fine upstanding Christians would be happy to do the same thing, and claim it as God's will.

LOL. More lies from Mr. "false equivalency". Your hate for those you oppose is the same type of hate which drove Schneider to murder Nelson.

 

[Divine Wind]

Clearly the guy shouldn't have been murdered, however, he is partially to blame. You run the risk of serious injury, or worse, when you agree to meet up with some random for a sexual encounter.

Yep. Who knows when a monster might put a shirtless ad in the paper advertising sex, meet you and collect the money, and then kick you to death. The dead guy was really dumb to do that, but I can't really cut the murderer much slack because the dead guy was dumb.

Exactly. Who knows when a monster is lurking? That is why one shouldn't answer ads for random sexually encounters.

Agreed. More than a few serial killers have used similar tactics. Forensic Files had a few of them and the movie "Monster" was based on Aileen Wuornos, a prostitute who murdered her Johns.

And yet if they believed that they would not be Christians...please...show us where Jesus commanded his followers to commit violent acts.........or that they would be excused of violent acts.....

moron.

Um

Many Islamists given the opportunity would though, regardless if it's beating Homosexuals to death or just throwing them off rooftops.

What is your religion?

They actually do murder gays and have made videos doing it....and morons like bulldog still defend islam.....

I'm sure this man going to prison claims to be a Christian .. he's no better than Muslims throwing gays off rooftops.

And a vegetariain who eats meat is not a vegetarian........there is nothing in Christian teachings that allow this behavior....so no, he can claim whatever he wants, but he is not, in fact, a Christian.......

 

[2aguy]

This murderer needs to be put to death. The hate crimes aspect...is stupid. He murdered an innocent person...who cares why he did it...

Hate crimes laws are stupid, and obviously the left embraces them...

He killed this man BECAUSE he was gay - by kicking him to death with his steel toed boots. That's what makes it a HATE crime.

Hate Crimes laws are stupid.....the key here...the only relevant factor.....He Murdered the Guy.......end of story...he could have murdered him because he loved him.......the guy would still be murdered.....

This is a death penalty case...but morons like you will stand with candles keeping the murderer alive....that is how insane you are...

 

[Bush92]

There is no such thing as a "hate crime." Just crime. If a person steals from a grocery store it is larceny...not a "food crime."

He should be executed, anyone who murders another person should be executed.

The only exceptions should be if they had no choice but to kill someone in self defence, in those cases mercy should be shown to the perpetrator.

A person who uses deadly force in self defense is not a “perpetrator” since he/she has committed no crime. In every jurisdiction in this country, an individual has the legal right to used deadly force if – at the time such force is used – the person reasonably believed it was necessary to prevent death or serious bodily injury to himself. If a jury believes a defendant acted in self defense they have a legal and moral duty to vote for acquittal.

You think such a person should be shown mercy, meaning you think some type of punishment should be imposed. Your position is contrary to the law and is intellectually and morally repugnant. The person who attempts to take, or threatens to take, the life of another without cause is called the perpetrator. The one who defends his life against such an attack is called the victim. The law does not punish victims.

SO everyone claims self defense and then they don't get executed.

It doesn't work that way. Merely claiming self defense has never kept anyone off death row. Self defense is what is called an “affirmative defense.” This means that the defendant has the burden of proof. If the defendant can prove that he acted in self defense the jury must acquit him. This is the way it should be. Certainly you are not suggesting that a person who proves he lawfully used deadly force to protect himself from death or serious bodily injury should be punished in any way.

He's Muslim, of course; it's quite the fashion among 'progressives' and Democrats now. No reason to even ask any more.

 

[Picaro]

It could happen to any gay man, and almost always the perp is another gay man. This is one of the rare cases where the perp was actually not gay.

Jeffrey Dahmer and others as well. Homosexuals are as prone to serial killing and cannibalism as they are to pedophilia.

 

[Dr Grump]

OMG...it must be rampant. Why do you post that he was, "a gay man?"

Because it is a relevant fact to the case. The killer was using anti-gay rants as he was kicking him. IOW, maybe the event wouldn't have happened if the guy had been straight. That's why.

 

[Dr Grump]

Jeffrey Dahmer and others as well. Homosexuals are as prone to serial killing and cannibalism as they are to pedophilia.

Totally unproven. Both assertions...
