First of all I would like to send my deepest and sincerest apologies to Mr. Lewis’ friends and family.
Secondly, this man was NOT gay. He just had an appreciation for the gay population. He enjoyed going to the nightclub because he could have a good time, be himself and not worry about anyone judging him.
With this said, I do not think that he was wrong for what he did. If anything, he should be a hero for trying to break up a fight that started from pure and utter hate.
I know there have been some very malicious things posted on the other stories regarding Mr. Lewis’ death. Those of you who call yourself Christians but then in the same breath spread hatred, are nothing more than a low-life hypocrite. Why Christians feel the need to voice their hate and expect people to “get right with God” based on their tactic is beyond me. Lucky for me, I’m a Christian who sees past the so-called “sins” in people. I don’t judge a person based on their preferences, choices OR how they were BORN. If peoples’ morale was solely based on what other people consider wrong, then no one would get very far in this world. For you close-minded people out there, take a look at your own life before you go pointing fingers. Don’t take your own insecurities out on an innocent man…
For those of you lucky enough to know James, he was an amazing guy. He would have given the shirt off his back even if it meant going without himself. He will be greatly missed!!
ITS OK IF THE JC POLICE CANT SOLVE THE CRIME THE,LL INVENT ONE TO SOLVE
