(Durham, North Carolina ) One of two Duke University students charged Tuesday with raping a female dancer also is accused of an attack on a gay man in Washington DC.

.......................

Finnerty, of Garden City, N.Y, is already facing an assault charge in Washington DC, the Durham Herald-Sun reported on Tuesday.

The charge stems from an incident on Nov 5 in which a gay man was attacked by three men in the Georgetown area of the district.

The victim in his report to police said that the three assailants hurled homophobic remarks while they beat him. He suffered a cut lip and multiple bruises.

Finnerty did not enter a plea in the case and was ordered to perform 25 hours of community service in Washington. He also entered a District of Columbia diversity program and his lawyer said he understood the assault charge would be dismissed when he returns to court on Sept. 25.

1. So, if he's guilty of both, he hates women and gay men because he's......

gay, and can't deal with it.

2. Gee I just love it when gay people are blamed for our oppression

Must be that we're just all masochists, right?

3. Sounds like a budding Fred Phelps to me

6. He could easily be one of the brainwashed RW fundie masses...

who has been taught that as a "Xian" white male, he had the duty (right) to enforce "morality" on all around him--like gay men or women who commit the sin of feeling free to express their sexuality--especially, if they are of a racial minority! After all, gay men engage in Sodomy! And a black female exotic dancer? Obviously ASKING to be gang raped... (but all in the name of religion, of course) :sarcasm:

5. Or He Just Likes to Hurt People…

…that he knows he can get away with hurting.

"Community service" for assault if the victim is gay?

7. Is that why klans men wear hoods?

Because they're all, secretly, black people?

8. I keep waiting for the posters that were shrieking over the victim's past

crimes to come here and scream about this guy.

[hlthe2b]

10. that was certainly not a "proud moment" in DU postings...

boy, some sterotypical beliefs, biases, and overt biggotry have reared their ugly head--in lieu of facts--lately.

11. I'm waiting on that too but

I'm not holding my breath.
