beaten by two New York men. These men held a strong hatred towards Price even though he was a complete stranger to them. The affects of the beating on Price were tremendous: a broken jaw, several broken ribs, two collapsed lungs, and a lacerated spleen. “What was the reason for these two men attacking an unknown man on the streets of New York,” one might ask? Well, Price was openly gay. Falling in love is not something that one can make happen, it just does. Imagine meeting a soul mate…
