Mark Carson - a victim of Homophobia in New York City

Mark Carson, age 32, died on May 18, 2013, in New York City.

Mark was gay and he was shot. His murder was a hate crime and was conducted by a stranger to him.

New York, the Big Apple, the "hip" center of the world still has an underground network of wingnuts who are into homophobia.

Elliot Morales, age 33, has been arrested in connection with this crime.

Elliot Morales approached Mark Carson and his friend on the street. He called out numerous smart assed comments such as "Look at you faggots." Mark and his friend tried to ignore Elliot Morales but he pursued them and made statements such as "Do you want to die right now?" He then shot Mark Carson in the face.

Mark was rushed to Beth Israel Hospital, but doctors were unable to save him, and he was pronounced dead at 1:40 AM.

Father, place Mark on the
stairway to Heaven

We don't know if Elliot Morales is gay, but it has been documented by medical researchers for decades that most men who conduct gay murders are gay. They want to kill what they love because they are unhappy that they are themselves gay. They are the Lost Ones who float in a world of despair and rage because they refuse to accept their own identity. And it eats them up. 

And the innocents, walking on the street, suffer for the inability of these homophobes to come to grips with their sexuality. 

Mark is survived by many friends and relatives who will miss him.

God save us from the freaks who stalk the Earth stealing away life. Amen. 

Let us pray that Mark is in heaven. Let us pray that he is at peace and is with God. Amen.
