Seattle Gay Couple’s Home Graffiti’d With “Faggots Rape Kids”

Tue, May 5, 2009 by AKA William

seattlegraffitihatecrimeYou know, when dangerously uninformed people like Joe the Plumber say things like “I wouldn’t have [gays] anywhere near my children” it makes it okay for other dangerously uninformed people to write things like “Faggots Rape Kids” on the sides of houses. Only instead of prompting head-shaking at Joe’s lack of sophistication, these awful words create terror.

Via Q13 Fox:

Seattle Police are looking for the vandals that have written anti gay slurs ["Faggots Rape Kids"] on the home of a gay West Seattle Couple. The victims told police the same homophobic tag has showed up several times. The victims have painted over the graffiti and the next day it reappears.

Keep reading and watch news video of one of the victims talking about his experience, after the jump.

The 54 year old victim told Q13 Fox News that the vandals wrote the hateful graffiti on his garage 3 times in the last 4 days.

As a gay man I cannot live in a house where someone is writing this on the side of my house . . . As bad as the wording is, it’s the intent behind the wording that really drives me crazy . . . Now, I feel like I’m living in a fish bowl. Someone is constantly watching me I feel very uncomfortable in my house. I hardly slept at all last night.”

Worse, the couple is afraid that their dog has been poisoned by the same person responsible for the graffiti.
