Angry Fags - Paperback

by Topher Payne (Author)

Bennett is really trying to keep it together right now. He broke up with his boyfriend and moved in with his best friend, Cooper. It's election season, and he's the speechwriter for Georgia's only gay state senator, who's engaged in a bloody campaign against a conservative darling. Then Bennett's ex is attacked in the parking lot of a gay bar. Bennett and Cooper are informed that the assault can't be classified as a hate crime - because in Georgia, hate crimes against homosexuals don't legally exist. Their frustration and fear eventually turn to rage as they realize "acceptance" simply isn't enough. They're still living in a society that relegates them to second-class status. They're not respected. They're not feared. It's time for that to change.
