Interesting Buzzfeed Article on Gay Panic

There is speculation that recent murder of gay mayoral candidate Marco McMillan in Mississippi might have have been caused due to gay panic.

So Buzzfeed examines the phenomenon and the legal tango of "gay panic."

I don't want to rush to judgement but it seems to me that this horrific crime may have involved I.O.I. Although we don't know the sexual orientation of the murderer, the way that he was killed (severely beaten and burned) may suggest that the murderer was really disturbed about having sexual intimacy and went through extreme gay panic.

Please read the article here. I will be addressing gay panic in a bit, I am just waiting to see how this murder case develops and if I.O.I and gay panic were actually involved.
