Straight-bashing in Palm Springs

A Palm Springs man is recovering from an alleged "straight-bashing" after being knocked unconscious Tuesday night.

Police say the unidentified 68-year-old was walking through a known gay neighborhood when he was approached by two younger men. They asked if he was gay, and if he'd like to go home with them. He replied no to both.

"He then felt something hit him, and he then lost consciousness," said Sgt. Mitch Spike of the Palm Springs Police.

Several officers are describing this incident as a reverse hate crime, since the man was beaten up for not being gay.

First Bill O'Reilly warns us about lesbian gangs, and now the Palm Springs Police report gays are attacking straights.

Here's a more likely scenario: two heterosexuals wanted to rob an old man, then got mad when he didn't fall for their scheme.

In fact, even this is more likely: the old guy was walking really fast, and his balls swung up and hit him in the head.
