Um, yes, as did PJ's link.
More thorough research there, nom.

NY1 is additional media coverage and I need not be second-guessed by a birdbrain.
Now who would that birdbrain be?
That is gay-bashing, even if the victim was straight and perceived to be gay.
A crime is a hate-crime when a criminal or group of criminals choose a potential victim who is simply part of a group--OR WHO IS PERCEIVED TO BE PART OF A GROUP.
Just curious- has a gay-bashed straight person ever charged an attacker with a hate crime? It would make for a really interesting legal precedent, but I wonder if the straight person would perceive it as a gay-bashing instead of just an assault.
It happened just a matter of months ago in fact...

So Perez Hilton Gay bashed Will.I.Am?
STFU Joe.
A second bashing is reported.
The 40-year-old man suffered two skull fractures and a broken nose in Sunday's attack on East 84th Street around 3:20 a.m., police say.
No arrests have been made.
BE CAREFUL!
A Second Gay Bashing on New York's Upper East Side
