Yes....I do think that when a marginalized person is murdered it may be ignored by the mainstream media, whereas when a socially acceptable or respected person is murdered, there is plenty of news coverage on it. We may be created equal, but we are not treated equal.
I take slight exception to calling AZ a "homophobic state". Sure, the culture is predominantly redneck, but it is not entirely, nor is the Oregon culture entirely tolerant....
