3 held in alleged anti-gay BB shooting in S.F.
SAN FRANCISCO — Three cousins from Hayward have been charged in San Francisco with a hate crime and assault for allegedly firing a BB rifle at the face of a man they believed was gay, an attack the men videotaped, authorities said Wednesday.
Mohammad Habibzada, Shafiq Hashemi and Sayed Bassam, all 24, are scheduled to be arraigned today in San Francisco Superior Court. They are free on $50,000 bond apiece.
The victim of Friday’s attack was walking on the 3200 block of 16th Street near Guerrero Street about 10 p.m. when a car pulled up and someone inside opened fire with a BB rifle, police said.
The man was hit in the face but refused medical treatment, said Lt. Lyn Tomioka, spokeswoman for the Police Department. He reported the shooting to police, who pulled over a car that matched the assailants’ vehicle a short distance away and arrested the three Hayward men.
Investigators believe the assailants chose the victim because he appeared to be gay. When the men were pulled over, police found a video camera that was used to film the shooting, investigators said.
Assistant District Attorney Victor Hwang, the prosecutor in the case, said the men are cooperating in the investigation.
Authorities are looking into whether the attack was isolated or whether there have been similar BB gun shootings elsewhere in the Bay Area. Police have been unable to find victims to support any additional allegations, but Hwang said, “We believe we have the evidence to show that there was targeting of individuals who they believed to be gay.”
He added, “We know about this one case. We want to know about if there are any other cases.”
I think that it is time that homosexuals take the blinders off, and see Islam for what it is.
US Muslim, Kill the Homosexuals!~Video
This is a video interview of an American Muslim from their September 25Th, 2009 Capital Hill prayer outing. He clearly states that if Sharia Law becomes the law of the USA, that homosexuals shall be put to death.
From From the “Sodomy and Lesbianism” chapter of Reliance of the Traveller
A Classic Manual of Islamic Sacred Law
p17.3 The Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) said:
(1) “Kill the one who sodomizes and the one who lets it be done to him.”
They don't even give a hoot about proof. Slander is better than proof according to this rocket scientists and brain surgeons. A what if is good enough reason for the muz to start killing.
At least there's a video tape to prove their guilt. It would be nice if that made it out into the public domain.
No one should commit crimes, but only idiots video tape their crimes, if you see it on the Internet please let me know.
Thanks.
We'll probably have to wait until after the trial (or during). It will probably be presented as evidence. Don't they release copies to the media in the US?
Maybe. But the media are all in the pay of the muzzies any way.
The man in that video was scary. The deference the journalist showed him was scary. The way the man stood there so defiant and rightous, shaking his finger at the journalist, "let me finish," is typical of the rightous indignation they show for any small thing. These people do not know humility. It is something we should show them.
navy petty officer 3rd class Alan r Schindler, beaten to death by his shipmates in 92 and army PFC barry wenchel who was beaten to death by fellow soldiers in 99.both for being gay. both were beaten so badly their parents could not identify them.or ronnie antonio paris 3 yrs old beaten to death in tampa by his father in 01..father thought he was gay and was gonna "toughen the sissy" out of him
homophobia is as much an american tradition as it is anywhere else.here are tons of examples of american brutality towanrd gays see the "proof" for yourself.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mw9zJq0QGl0&NR…
Will, there's a big difference between ordinary homophobia and religiously motivated homophobia. In the later, the religious zealot cannot or is not allowed to change his stance. The former may change his views once he learns that homosexuals are not a threat to his own manhood.
Where did anyone say that there was no other hate directed in this country directed towards homosexuals?All you have proved is that America has enough problems already, and we do not need Islam adding more.
Most gays I know haven't a clue about islam and the threat it poses to gays. I think that is changing in the Netherlands as there has been numerous articles about attacks against gays by the moroccans.
I've seen reports on TROP http://thereligionofpeace.com/ about gays being attacked elsewhere in the US by arselifters. Minnesota and Maine, I believe. Try doing a search for news reports. The word should get out into the gay community about the threat pislam poses to them.
I have a gay conservative friend, and he is sickened by how most gays support Islam and hate Christianity. He is trying to wake them up.
There's a follow up news report to this. Seems these arselifters were having a night out on the town. They recorded 11 other attacks!
