Well, he\u2019s gay.<\/p>\n<p>According to The New York Post, New York Chief of Detectives James Essig <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/11\/22\/suspect-in-custody-in-weekend-brick-attack-at-hells-kitchen-gay-bar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">claimed<\/a> the suspect vandalized the place in defense of some gal he knows.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBasically, what he says [is] he knows a girl who had a problem with one of the guys in the bar and he was \u2018exacting revenge,\u2019\u201d Essig told the paper. \u201cAs of right now we don\u2019t have any reason to believe it is [a hate crime].\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, Kuilan told authorities, \u201cI\u2019m gay myself,\u201d as they took him out of the paddywagon and into court earlier this week.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike other hate crime hoaxes, the suspect here doesn\u2019t appear as if he is trying to perpetuate a false narrative.<\/p>\n<p>For example, Jussie Smollett, perhaps the most famous hate crime hoax, used his celebrity status to push the notion that roaming bands of MAGA thugs were traversing through Chicago in the dead of night beating up Hollywood celebrities for being gay and liberal.<\/p>\n<p>It obviously wasn\u2019t true, but much of legacy media spun the narrative that conservatives had unleashed hate across the country.\u00a0 Smollett was all too eager to go along with it, perhaps to boost his own street cred in the entertainment industry.<\/p>\n<p>Kuilan just seems like a guy seeking \u201crevenge\u201d \u2014 whatever that means \u2014 on behalf of his friend. There is no evidence that he was also using the crimes to push the idea that there is a wave of anti-LGBTQ violence.<\/p>\n<p>As it stands, Bottcher and Levine\u2019s tweets about the matter are still posted. So, as far as their followers are concerned, VERS was attacked due to homophobia and bigotry \u2014 which doesn\u2019t appear to be true.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t expect them to retract their statements either. The Left never lets the truth get in the way of a good story that advances their cause.<\/p>\n<p><em>The views expressed in this piece are the author\u2019s own and do not necessarily represent those of The Daily Wire.<\/p>\n<p><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Would you be surprised if a recent string of \u201chate crimes\u201d against a popular New York City gay bar were actually carried out by a gay man?
