Listen Dane.....a hand gun costs less than a pair of cute jeans.

Four against one is VERY fair when the four are bleeding to death.

@guarddog22 This kid is no drug dealer. I know him, and he has a drug history for sure, but that's just a way for the police to use is wrap sheet against him so they don't have to call this what it is. I don't know if you've ever lived in Utah, but the police there are highly prejudicial against the gay community and don't take these kinds of things seriously in the least. There was an attack with the same MO just a few months earlier at the same club, you can look that up too.

I agree with the comment below. This guy has a history of arrests. I'd really hate to think that he's covering up something illegal by claiming he was called gay slurs and beaten for being gay. There is too much real gay bashings and gay bullying in the world. We don't need a gay drug dealer/buyer to lie about it. I hope my suspicions prove wrong. But whatever, nobody deserves to be beaten like this poor guy. I can just imagine the physical and mental pain he must be suffering.

Drug deal gone wrong possibly? This Dane Hall was arrested in July for drug-related charges and lying to police. You can look it up.
