Matthew Shepard gay bashing
When gangs (often of people with repressed homosexual tendencies) seek out gay people and beat them up or kill them. The most famous gay bashing incident was the crucifixion and murder of Matthew Shepard in Laramie Wyoming on 1998-10-07.

The term gay bashing is less frequently used to describe the activities of people like Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson, encouraging others to mistreat or harm gays, spreading slanders about gays, or working to deny gays people the same civil rights as everyone else.

“The lady doth protest too much, methinks.”
