The most ironic thing about gay bashing is that the people who yell the loudest against gays are the ones who are touching the little boys in their Sunday School classes.

Didn't it later come out that he was murdered by his gay lover.
Maybe they were disruptive and protesting the lie.
Where's Toddy?

Ole Miss is an embarrassment, a few years ago they had the kkk rally on campus, then in 2012 after Obama won the election hundreds of Ole Miss students were seen on every new station burning Obama signs. Now this. Mississippi has to be the most backwards state in the country.
GFY cock gobbler.

Pretty sure it came out that one of the attackers may have been on meth when he attacked. I don't think it had anything to do with them being lovers though.

I didn't know ANY of the controversy until today.
BUT, it appears as though there's a contingent of people that believe the death to either be a drug deal gone bad, or revenge of a jilted bisexual lover.
Apparently, the defendants admitted that taking the hate crime charges were less fierce than if they were to take felony murder charges associated with a bag drug deal.

Things I've learned from this thread:
It's easy to make the following conclusions about Mississippi, all Mississippians, and the University of Mississippi.
1. Every Caucasian person that fits into at least one of the three categories above is a racist towards anyone of a different race, especially African-Americans.
2. Every Caucasian person that fits into at least one of the three categories above is anti-homosexual rights and vehemently and regularly protests in favor of anti-homosexual rights.
3. Every Caucasian person that fits into at least one of the three categories above is a member of the Ku Klux Klan.
4. Every Caucasian person that fits into at least one of the the three categories above is a deeply religious, evangelical Christian and votes for the Tea Party and the Tea Party only.

Gay propoganda, good for them to boo.

I am in the theatre class with some football players. I would not be surprised if every bit was true. When the professor let us know how long the play would be, they wouldn't shut the frick up complaining loudly.
I went to the Wednesday night show, and had no idea of the incident. I was pleasantly surprised by the actor's performances and I could tell the rest of the audience was too. Only made me more pissed when I picked up the DM this morning.
I'm sorry but this is one of the reasons why I don't love college football as much(I still love it though ) as when I was in high school. I see the football players everyday and see how stupid and obnoxious they are

No idea if there was hate speech, but just the sheer fact that they're so fricking stupid they don't know how to act at a play pisses me the frick off.
Because the professor definitely went over theatre etiquette for like 20 minutes Tuesday morning. They were definitely aware.

Perhaps it's because of my Ole Miss instilled bigotry, but I just don't give a shite.

It wasn't a drug deal gone bad. The guy that killed the gay dude was on drugs. That's where the drug story stops.
edit: People that wildly distort the original story are an embarrassment.

I posted this on one of the headlines but I'll post it here as well.
Honestly, when I was at LSU, I was one of the designers for a number of the plays and pieces of theatre that went on. Every year we did a series of LGBTQ plays called "Outworks" and to my knowledge they still do. I'll just say that we always knew when the LSU football team was in attendance. They too were required to come see the shows, and always decided to come together. They were always a massive distraction. It didn't stop with the gay stuff though, we did another play where my girlfriend got undressed to perform a scene where the character gets raped and was constantly sexually harassed through the night by the players asking her to show her tits again.
I had never been that disappointed in my team before. None of the shows were about being gay to be gay (at least when I was doing them) and my girlfriends show wasn't about being a whore. It was about identifying and having sympathy for another human being, which none of our players showed. I guess its a little comforting knowing now that it isn't just our players.

The moral of this story is we are surrounded by drooling morons.

Yes.
It wasn't just the more controversial plays. It was every single one. The gay plays seemed to just bring more out of them.
That's not to say that some didn't really get into the shows though. I did "A Cry of Players" a number of years ago and Trindon Holliday really liked it. Stayed after the show and talked to me and some actors about it. Herman Johnson too.

I regret checking back in on this thread.

Who gives a shite. The fact that they aren't supposed to say anything during the play is just a western convention. I think these guys were going against that and illustrated how important the audience is in Theatre and that they really challenged the idea of realism with postmodernism and the conventions that control someone. What is theatre about? showing a theme or a lesson and a story and to have an audience respond to it. They responded in a non-traditional way but a response none the less. They should be able to take criticism that's what art is about. I'm no theatre guru, but I know from my theatre class that this is the way plays were and still are performed with a very interactive audience.
