Talk:Gay violence

The top six male serial killers in America are/were not all gay, as claimed in this article. See: Gary Ridgway, Ted Bundy, and H.H. Holmes as counterexamples.

The top six U.S. male serial killers were all gay:

• Donald Harvey claimed 37 victims in Kentucky;

• John Wayne Gacy raped and killed 33 boys in Chicago, burying them under his house and in his yard;

• Patrick Kearney accounted for 32, cutting his victims into small pieces after sex and leaving them in trash bags along the Los Angeles freeways;

• Bruce Davis molested and killed 27 young men and boys in Illinois;

• A gay sex-murder-torture ring (Corll-Henley-Brooks) sent 27 Texas men and boys to their grave; and

• Juan Corona was convicted of murdering 25 migrant workers (he "made love" with their corpses).

So you're saying your three killed more people, or what? --Ed Poor ^Talk 15:31, 10 November 2008 (EST)

They're hardly 'my three', but yes: Ridgway claimed 71 but pled guilty to killing 48; Bundy confessed to 30 although estimates range up to 100 with 35 being the majority view; Holmes confessed to 27 with potentially up to 200; Charles Cullen claimed to have killed 45 - convicted of 19, I believe; Coral Eugene Watts plead guilty to 12 but the total is probably closer to 100. --Brossa 15:53, 10 November 2008 (EST)

Then put them in the article. What's with all the debate? --Ed Poor ^Talk 16:07, 10 November 2008 (EST)

So you know, he just got blocked. Corry 16:55, 10 November 2008 (EST)

Not a problem--I'll put in the information as per Ed's request.
