You have heard of Matthew Shepherd haven’t you? Of course you have. He was the homosexual maliciously murdered in Wyoming by two heterosexuals. The incident sparked no fewer then 3,000 media stories, inspired HATE-CRIME legislation all across the country, and even spawned a scholarship in his name for gay and lesbian students. In one fell swoop Matthew Shepherd became the poster-boy for the liberal agenda and a martyr for the homosexual movement.
Now, have you every heard the story of Jesse Dirkhising? No? I didn’t think so. He’s the 13-year-old boy who was raped and murdered by two homosexuals in Arkansas in the fall of 2000. The major opinion makers – The New York Times, The Washington Post, USA Today, CBS, NBC, CNN – have produced a combined sum total of ZERO stories about Jesse Dirkhising. Why the media blackout? After all if it’s a newsworthy HATE-CRIME when a homosexual is killed by two heterosexuals, why isn’t it a newsworthy HATE-CRIME when a heterosexual juvenile is sodomized, raped, and murdered by two homosexuals?In both cases a young man was senselessly murdered.
But there is more to the story. You see, at the time Jesse was killed, the media was busy crucifying the Boy Scouts for banning homosexuals from being Scout leaders. Jesse’s story didn’t fit the liberal propaganda the major news agencies were busy ramming down our collective throats. I mean, how would it look if Brian Williams did a piece bashing the Boy Scouts for banning gays, only to be followed by Katie Couric’s expose of the two homosexual who raped and killed little Jesse. Such a segue would make it seem like the Boy Scouts actually knew what they were doing. So Jesse’s case got swept under the rug, because his death wasn’t politically incorrect.
