Pardon me if this has already been diaried but I do not think it has.
As a resident of San Diego I am personally outraged and stunned by this hate crime. What kind of CS coward would commit such an act? If these punks are guilty (we will let the courts decide) I hope they get the preverbial book thrown at them. Here is another link to another possible suspect.

Thankfully, the police stepped up to the plate and dealt with this immediately. We should all be outraged at this unbelievable and sickening crime.
"People are outraged," said Sean Wherley, a spokesman for The San Diego Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender Community Center. "We're obviously very concerned by the viciousness of the attacks, but we're heartened by the swift action" by the police.
I'm sure the San Diego Police Department would appreciate a job well done outreach if you are so inclined.
Here is one possible outlet for lending a helping hand:
The Rev. John Gill of Metropolitan Community Church, a predominantly gay congregation, said people have called and offered to help the victims.
"People want to help in whatever way possible," Gill said.
A few years ago, the church established a fund to aid victims of anti-gay hate crime. The fund, in response to the high-profile 1998 killing of Matthew Shepard in Laramie, Wyo., has raised $2,500.
Wishing well to the victims.
