halifax gay murders

Why is it that whenever there is a murder concerning a distinct group of individuals that are different than the majority of the country, we make a huge public statement to be careful if you are in that group? When a murder/assault happens to the majority, we just report it, but no warning is given. A boy is beaten on his way home from school by his classmates, ok it is reported. As soon as it is discovered that the boy is jewish, the media starts reporting 'hate crime' and 'if you are jewish, be careful cause there are people beating up jewish people on the streets'. Who knows, perhaps the boy wasn't beaten cause he was jewish, perhaps he was beaten just cause he was a pain in the ass to someone, insulted someone the wrong way, got a higher grade than his attackers or perhaps he hit on the girlfriend of the wrong guy in class.

Two men are murdered and it is strange, they are discovered to be homosexual, all of a sudden it is a person killing homosexuals and everyone should be careful if they are homosexual. Who knows, perhaps the two murder victims just happened to be wearing the same clothes and it is a Gucci killer on the loose, or perhaps the two men just happened to be walking down 36th Ave where the gay bar is 2 blocks away and the killer killed them because of the 36th Ave and not their sexual orientation. In this case, the two ages. One was 45, the other was 44 so obviously the killer is working backwards perhaps starting from his own age and working back, killing his own life year by year til he is nothing, sort of like a displaced temporal suicide thing. So, now it is not a homosexual killing, but it is an aged killing, so all 43 year olds beware.

Why limit down to the sexual orientation of the killing, why not let everyone know that there are killings happening and it seems to be happening a lot so everyone should be careful.

Halifax murders prompt warning to gay community
Updated Sat. May. 12 2007 8:40 AM ET

HALIFAX -- Police are warning members of Halifax's gay community to protect themselves after the killings of two gay men.

But police say they don't know whether the victims' sexual orientation was a factor in their deaths.

The R-C-M-P and Halifax Regional Police told a joint news conference yesterday that there are "sufficient similarities'' between two recent homicides to combine the investigations.
They revealed little else about the crimes.

The body of 45-year-old Trevor Charles Brewster was found Wednesday under a boardwalk in Dartmouth. The body of 44-year-old Michael Paul Knott was found last weekend in a wooded area west of the city.

Police say people who frequent gay cruising areas in the city should take steps to protect themselves.
