About that Missoula gay bashing? It didn't happen.

A 22-year-old man who reported he was the victim of an alleged hate crime in Missoula during the early morning hours of August 5 has admitted he made the story up. “It has now been determined that the assault did not occur,” Missoula Police Lieutenant Scott Brodie said in an August 7 statement

People will always make up false allegations. If there is a crime, then someone, somewhere will lie about being a victim. But it says nothing about the group they are part of (women, gay people, etc), and everything about the individual.

That's the way it should be, but unfortunately with the way the world works, every false allegation makes it harder for real victims to get the attention and justice they deserve.

That was more about my feelings. When I'm God-King I'll fix the real world.

Awww thanks. But I was thinking more about going with a traditional villain take-over. Lots of big explosions in places with no people and then the ultimatum 'or the White House is next' threat.

Well, then I'll wave a flag and cheer. :)
