Outstanding Woman

Ellen Degeneres – should be Degenerous – is an amazing woman who recognizes other women who are equally amazing. This certainly got me teary-eyed, so fair warning. We should all emulate Tamika Watkins and her selfless decision to give back. And kudos to her for the two degrees she possesses. Though it wasn’t explicitly stated, I’m betting she got these degrees after having children which is a greater accomplishment, in my opinion.

Elderly Gay NYC Man, Allegedly Killed For ‘Blowing Kisses’

This just breaks my heart. I mean it’s bad enough that the poor man was a victim of a hate crime, but it just somehow feels worse because he was elderly too. 😦

I hope Karma is a bitch to that boy and bites him HARD.

A 69-year-old gay man was allegedly stabbed to death with an eight-inch knife under a New York subway station in broad daylight Sept. 16.

Though witnesses initially speculated that the attack occurred over a cell phone, officials are now reporting that the victim lost his life because the attacker thought the man was gay, according to NBC.

Steven Torres, a 22-year-old Bronx resident, is facing charges of second degree murder for the death of Ever Orozco after allegedly attacking the man beneath the elevated 7 train station at 90th St. and Roosevelt Ave. as he was feeding a parking meter around 1:30 p.m.

“There was a lot of screaming, and all I could see was the guy was stabbing him — stabbing him and stabbing him,” stated Eddie De Jesus, a local stop owner who bore witness to the incident.
