Jonathan Joss ruled, we are poorer for his murder
For anyone who doesn't know what happened that night, Jonathan and his husband were visiting their former house that had been burned down when they saw that their pet dog's skull had been placed on a fence for them to see. The couple began wailing out of desperation and terror, and that's when the neighbor showed up with a gun, yelling homophobic slurs. John's husband was to be shot when he pulled him away and took the bullet for him instead.
Not only were they terrorized, but also ambushed and killed in cold blood. John died doing the ultimate sacrifice. John is a hero.
Don’t forget that they had received homophobic threats about burning their house down. I have zero doubt in my mind the murderer was just upset they didn’t die in the fire.
It was years of threats, mostly from the same guy that shot him. Cops ignored the reports, and then instantly declared that no hate crime was committed without investigating anything.
They didn't realize that he knew a-listers, tried to sweep it under the rug, and now they have an international spotlight on them
Fucking hell. No hatred like religion and conservatism.
Local police: boys being boys, no hate crime
Legacy media: he was shot after an argument
like i said before, it's not a hate crime because they loved doing it
Okay, this one hurts on so many levels.
Not just a gay issue though. Fuck these inbred subhuman freaks of stupidity that can't stop obsessing over who someone else fucks at night. Those kinds of disorders are not okay. Those kinds of people have no right to exist in freedom. I come from one of these backwards psychotic prejudiced backgrounds. I had the sense to walk away from my social support network because they are wrong and deranged; blind to their own prejudice and hate. No excuses.
Glad you got out. Any idea how we fix them?
I know of a few ways, but they travel at around 4500 ft/sec
Also not just a gay issue because
for men
for women the same but with femininity / hair length / makeup usage /clothing.
The police: Not a hate crime.
Not even a hate accident.
Just a 'yup' in the alley between the men, the gun probably slipped.

So tragic.

Everyone needs more guns.
(I don't need a "/s", do I? I get surprised sometimes.)
Texas is a shit hole
I have a group of friends that I ride horses with who are wanting me to take a trip to Texas with them. I denied my invite, saying that I'd rather stay alive. As an openly gay, disabled woman who will be getting a total hysterectomy next month, I feel like I'd be vilified.
This hurts as a Texan, but also rings true. I used to think we’re more “independent” minded than the South (as I have some scary Southern family), but every day since 2016 has opened my eyes more.
The murder made me think about how much I heard “removed,” racial slurs and worse as a kid, and how many stayed in the closet out of fear.
If you come, come to Austin! It’s better. Avoid Dallas, it sucks.
No. My ass is a shit hole. Nobody's ever been killed over my ass.
Then again; I've never let a christian nest there.
Shit I didn't know he was Chief Ken Hotate of the Wamapoke...
What a fucked up world...
This is just fucking awful. I don't want to be in the darkest timeline anymore.
You're jumping through a lot of hoops to portray Joss as aggressive so you can justify his murder. Let's start here:
1.) All three dogs were found
Nothing in the article confirms they only had three dogs. On top of that, other sources you posted said they only found 2 dogs. Including this video from earlier today that is even more recent than the article that alleges they lost their three which is from Janurary. We also have no idea if there were more than 3 dogs, because the term they found all three dogs isn't anywhere in your source. Simply that they found 3, and that number isn't even likely correct. (Edit: On re-read, Sources 2, 3 and 4 all cite 2 dogs being lost in the fire. Did you even read your own sources and confirmed you had the correct number before you started spouting off?)
2.) 3.) What caused the fire?
This is a weird, semantic, pedantic, hill to die on. The police themselves say they don't know what caused the fire. If it was an accidental fire from a propane heater, grill, etc, it would be incredibly easy to determine if that was the origin point of the fire. The fact they couldn't determine the cause is either a sign to their utter incompetence, or that there was foul play. Even your own source for 4 had this quote:
I have classified this fire to be undetermined in nature at this time but cannot rule out human involvement intentional or unintentional
They already knew there was a heat source, but they can't confirm the fire started from there? That's extremely suspect. Meanwhile getting away with arson is fairly easy due to the nature of fire. Given these circumstances, you needs a lot more evidence to prove Jonathan Joss was the person responsible for his house fire. On top of that, Joss' house wasn't insured. So it's not like he or his husband caused it for the insurance payout.
4.) 5.) Previous incidents.
He was loud and brazen in his neighborhood, likely because of the abuse he received. However there is zero evidence that Jonathan ever aimed his crossbow at his neighbors house. The only evidence for this claim from a few anonymous sources, and the fact they found a crossbow on his property during a search. The pitchfork wielding was because he found his dog dead. Again, nothing in your first text proves whatsoever that Jonathan didn't find his third dog. Or even that Jonathan only had 3 dogs. Considering even the NBC source says 2 dogs found, that's 2 sources to your 1 saying otherwise. So it seems like there were only 2 dogs found.
6.) SAFFE investigation
First off, I'd like to see any evidence to the claim that Johnathan would shoot guns pr fire his crossbow from his property. I haven't seen a single substantiated claim that has ever happened. Second, the crossbow incident can't be substantiated whatsoever either. Jonathan had a crossbow, but there's zero evidence he ever brought it to his neighbors house. Plus it's weird that you bring that up like it happened repeatedly. Even if it did happen, which again there's zero evidence to it having happened, it only happened once.
And literally none of your sources ever once ask or answer where all of this animosity stemmed from. It very much seems like it could be a hate-crime, and its weird that you're in multiple threads railing against Joss. You have a weird vendetta it seems.
Jonathan Joss also said a few months ago he burned his house down with his dogs in it after leaving a propane heater on.
Source? The report I saw said he used a barbecue indoors but that it was turned off and the investigation didnt find it to be the cause.
Even if he had other issues, the killer still shot him while shouting homophobic slurs at him. It doesnt change it being a hate crime.
Disagree on the two people needing help. The shooter doesn't deserve help and obviously was a bigoted racist. Joss definitely needed help, but the shooter? Fuck 'em.
If my neighbor, who is a crazy abusive asshole, was doing everything you described i wouldn't shoot them. Who the fuck shoots people for being crazy?
