California becomes the first state to ban the "gay panic" defense
Governor Jerry Brown has signed AB 2501, legislation that removes "gay panic" as a defense that would reduce homicide charges to manslaughter. No longer will killers be able to claim they were acting from panic or passion when they killed someone who they either knew or found out was gay or transgender. Now they will face the full charges for their crime, just as if they had killed a heterosexual person.

Yeah, it's a real defense that was used in more than a handful of cases. Seriously doubt it'd ever be used successfully regardless of this announcement though.

This law will go away once an illegal kills a white gay citizen.

The Gay Panic? Sounds like the reason for a stock-market crash, to me.

At the same time they enacted the "yes means yes" law. Dems embrace cognitive dissonance.

Thanks again John for pointing out what a ridiculous state California is.

California is such a cesspool of ignorance. It figures that they would ban something that was successfully used in some other country.

Memphis won't be happy about this one. He needs a Conservative to start it, liberals starting a gay thread don't provide exciting fap material for him.

okay.. there's a "Gay panic" defense in California? Are they really that IDIOTIC there?

I'd be interested in knowing if California juries were dumb enough to acquit someone on this kind of defense

If you're transgendered and get killed because you tried to bang someone who thought all the parts matched when they didn't ... then the person who killed you should be charged without any concessions for murder.

HOWEVER ....... you yourself should get charged with reckless endangerment and sexual harassment.

So there needs to be a clear disclosure statement of "Yes I am a man" or "Yes I am a woman" formally before all intercourse from two strangers? Thats ridiculous.
