If I punch a gay guy trying to rape me, will it be considered as a homophobic hate crime?

Yes, your punching of the gay guy who's trying to rape you will be prosecuted as a homophobic hate crime. This is proven by your decision to resist his advances.

However, if there are some mitigating circumstances, the D.A. might be willing to let you enter into a pre-trial diversion program in which you learn to accept homosexual advances.

Salam No it would not be considered as a homophobic hate crime if you punch a gay guy who is trying to rape you because raping is forbidden in Islam

No.

It's self-defense. You defended yourself from getting raped. It would be considered a homophobic hate crime if you randomly went up to a gay and punched him.

I expect to see laws like that in about 5 or 10 years.

No, this would not be a homophobic hate crime. It would be self defense.

In America??

That's a very tough question...it's your word against his. Hopefully there are witnesses around, or he has a history of violence

i know this story is fictional. If there was a gay guy about to violate you, it wouldn't be rape......

No, you just defended yourself from a sick, gay man.. Furthermore it is very dangerous due to the diseases associated with homosexuality.

No - self defense.
