Two charged with hate crimes in gay man's beating

Two men brutally attacked an openly gay man outside of a deli in Queens. They are being tried for hate crimes as well as robbery. They were beating the man and yelling anti-gay remarks and then took his wallet. The gay man was treated for a broken jaw, several broken ribs, two collapsed lungs, and a lacerated spleen.

All i can say to this is, "Really?" Why would anyone do something like this just because of a lifestyle choice. Im absolutely sure that there are things that are different and weird about the two attackers, other than the fact that they find it ok to horribly beat up a person for being different, and im sure theyd prefer to not be attacked and injured because of them. They should be put in jail for a minimum of 25 years. Hopefully, the trial does get taken as hate crimes so the punishment is worsened.
