It is not because the victim was gay. Nanloko kasi siya e. There was deceit in Laude's part. Analogy dyan kaya walang galit e pag napatay mo yung nang-scam sa iyo then people will forgive you. Niloko nya yung marine, the marine finds out and in a fit of rage kills him. There lies the problem, you can not pin the blame entirely on the marine. And that is why people are not as angry.
