    Gay bashing or not, this motherfucker needs to be found and his bald ass put in jail.

    Someone spills a drink and you hit them from behind with a chair?
    Fuck you, fuck all the cowards in your group and fuck your momma for raising an asshole like you.

    (sorry for the language...this shit pisses me off..oops, apologies again.)

      I’ll never understand how anyone can get so angry about anything. That fat fuck would’ve killed him and would’ve done so just because he’s angry.

      I’m with you. I cannot fathom this kind of violence against anyone. I think you’re also right in that he would’ve killed him if given more freedom with less witnesses.

      My gut says this fat fuck was showing off for his crew.
      This fuck needs to get off our streets like yesterday.
      I feel so awful for these two guys. Nobody deserves this.

    there is obviously more to this story, no one would try gay bashing in chelsea, i feel we will end up judging the situation completely wrong, like we did with the lesbian waitress and the faily that supposedly called her a slur and didn’t leave a tip

    He was examined by a medical crew but declined to take an ambulance to the hospital because he’s unemployed and doesn’t have insurance.

    Two crimes that occurred that night.

      For what it’s worth, there are more than a few ways that the uninsured can have their medical bills paid in part or in full including state victims of crime compensation programs. People who require emergency medical care should seek it, preferably from a non-profit hospital which have much stronger incentives to maintain services for the uninsured.

    1) LOVE the “I may be a mouthy broad”; and
    2) might this speak more about the gentrification problem Brooklyn is having?

    The New York Daily News interviewed Isaam Sharef, who shot the YouTube clip in this post:

    The couple had been in a verbal argument that almost turned physical, Sharef said, when the unidentified man with the chair said something one of the duo didn’t like.

    “Everyone was commenting on them fighting,” Sharef told the Daily News. “It was a big scene.”

    Snipes went over to the man and took a swing at him, sparking the fight, Sharef said. The big man was able to get Snipes on the ground and stomp him before York-Adams stepped in to separate the two.

    That’s when Sharef caught the chair slam on video.

    ...Sharef said he never hear gay slurs and doubts the incident was a hate crime. The restaurant, in the heart of Chelsea’s gay club district, is known as a gay hangout, he said.

    Snipes got in touch with Sharef and indicated that he hoped to press charges against the unknown attacker.

    “I didn’t get the impression it was a hate crime because the other guy (Snipes) started the fight,” Sharef said.

    Was Sharef paying attention the entire time, including when the attacker and his friends allegedly started mocking Snipes and Adams? Doubtful. Snipes already admitted that he confronted them for being homophobic, which is exactly what he should have done.

    Was Sharef staring at this scene so long that he was able to see who threw the first punch?

      Statement from New York City Council member Corey Johnson:

      I am appalled and angered by the senseless act of anti-LGBT hate violence that was perpetrated last night at a restaurant in my district. The fact that this attack took place in the neighborhood of Chelsea, a place known around the world for its acceptance of all people, is particularly outrageous. There must be zero tolerance of hate crimes, the most insidious of crimes as they target entire communities of people. I urge the perpetrators of this act to turn themselves in immediately. My office is in communication with the New York Police Department and the NYC Anti Violence Project. I urge anyone with information about this case to contact Crime Stoppers at 646-610-6806.

          I about had a heart attack at that video. I hope he comes out of this okay.

          Horrifying that this is still reality in the US and all over really.

              Yes, please. It’s sad to see that he could not afford treatment when he clearly needs it.
