Three Year Old Boy Murdered For Being "Gay".
One has to wonder about the state of the human race.
A three year old Florida boy, Ronnie Paris, lived a short, brutal, loveless existence with an irresponsible, emotionally absent, weak mother, and a violent, intellectually absent, hate-filled father. Ronnie's mother, family "church", and neighbors stood by while his father battered him to death, slowly, horribly.
Ronnie's crime? His father thought he was gay.
At three years of age, a child is neither gay nor straight, he's just a sweet, innocent little person, filled with potential, accepting of everyone and incapable of hate. By all accounts Ronnie was a gentle, loving, sensitive soul, a beautiful child. The stupidity of this child's father is staggering. He felt little Ronnie was a "sissy", "weak", not "tough enough". He was concerned that his boy was gay.
This is not a crime of passion. Ronnie's father beat him for all of his three years of life, trying, he claimed, to make his son tougher, a fighter, a man's man. He would put his son in a box and pound on his head, causing him to vomit, soil himself and lose consciousness. It was Ronnie's father's plan to "cure" Ronnie of his "gayness".
Ronnie Paris died because his father hated him. His young life was stolen because nobody stood up for him, protected him, or helped him. His mother is guilty, the members of the family's warped church, who knew what Ronnie was living through and condoned the abuse, is guilty, the neighbors who turned a deaf ear to Ronnie's screams are guilty, the extended family, who did nothing to keep this baby safe from the monster they created, is guilty. Employees of Florida Social Services, who took Ronnie away from this horror, only to return him, are guilty. The father, a homophobic, stupid, angry and vicious brute, is guilty. Hopefully the state of Florida keeps him in prison for as long as little Ronnie Paris is dead.
The tears shed for Ronnie Paris are too late in coming, and come from people who didn't know him. Bitter tears for a young life wasted will do nothing to help him now, it is far too late for that.
