ok what the hell! this is horrible, how the hell is this in our legal system

Hey tumblr folk, i got this email recently from the Young Labor Secretary, Chloe Moss and this really freaked me out!!! how is this in our legal system! just thought you all should know! Some disturbing news: Queensland's new Attorney-General has been on radio defending the notorious "gay panic" defence -- they are attempting to keep it as law.

Father Paul Kelly from Maryborough has restarted his hugely successful Change.org campaign that got the last government to commit to closing the loophole. Will you join other Queenslanders supporting Father Paul's petition?

Help make sure "gay panic" is never an excuse for murder -- join 193,000 others backing Father Paul's petition now.  

“Yeah, I killed him, but he did worse to me.” These are the words of a man who reacted to some “gentle touching” from a gay man by ramming his victim’s head against a wall until he was unrecognisable, and then stabbing him to death [1].

This infamous 1997 case enshrined the “gay panic” defence in Queensland law -- allowing accused murderers to have charges downgraded if their victim was gay and “came onto” them.

Just two years ago, a man was brutally killed in Father Paul Kelly’s church yard, and his killer used this same defence. He was subsequently acquitted of murder [2].

Father Paul was horrified that this argument was even allowed in court, and has launched a huge campaign to ensure it's abolished.Queensland's new Premier Campbell Newman, is yet to declare his personal position -- and a surge in pressure in the coming days may ensure the new government commits to finally ending the "gay panic" defence. 

193,000 people have already signed Father Paul’s petition, help him reach 200,000 signatures by Friday. Sign the petition now.

A recent study named Queensland as Australia’s most homophobic state, and anti-gay violence is reportedly on the rise [3]. Laws like the “gay panic” defence are a crucial part of legitimising and reinforcing a culture which means that 73% of gay and lesbian Queenslanders are subjected to verbal abuse or physical violence for their sexuality [4].

While fierce community opposition has convinced almost all other state governments to close similar loopholes, the outcry has fallen on deaf ears in Queensland. It’s now one of the last states upholding the idea that a person can be panicked enough by gay and lesbian people to justify murder. Thousands like Father Paul are fed up with the inaction -- it’s the perfect moment for the new Premier to take a stand and promise to close this "archaic" loophole.

Click here to join Father Paul and make sure “gay panic” is never an excuse for murder.
