Newlyweds Jonathan Joss and Tristan Kern de Gonzales held each other in their final moment together Sunday.
Joss, 59, the voice actor best known as John Redcorn on “King of the Hill,” had just been shot in the head in front of their San Antonio home.
“I didn’t want him to struggle and everything, so I decided to tell him I loved him. And despite the severity of everything, he was able to look up at me and acknowledge what I was saying, so I know he heard me,” said Kern de Gonzales, 32. “I just kept telling him: ‘It’s OK. You need to cross over. You don’t need to keep struggling. You need to go ahead and cross over easy.’”
Kern de Gonzales said Joss’ killer also had final words for the actor. He called him and his husband “jotos,” a Spanish slur for gay people.
“I’ve been called that word while I was sitting on a bench with Jonathan, eating lunch,” Kern de Gonzales said. “And I got called that holding Jonathan while he died.”
Shortly after, police arrested one of the pair’s neighbors, Sigfredo Alvarez Ceja, 56, in connection with Joss’ killing.
☝️A guy condemning prejudice and hate against a group of people then proceeds to make a prejudicial and hateful comment against a group of people.
E: I forget that this c/ is “fuck America and everyone in it”. If I point out hypocrisy or defend the idea that not everyone in the US is a shithead I get downvoted to hell.
I really hate how okay it apparently is to be openly bigoted against Americans here.
I don’t hate on the entire country and population, for example, of India just because it’s way too common to hear stories of little girls being raped in Uttar Pradesh.
Anyone equating this sort of thing with America/all Americans are being just as bigoted as I would be if I made a statement like “India needs to end in ashes”.
America isn’t a people. America is a system of brutality and violence built on racism, genocide, and exploitation. Ashes are better than it deserves.
You’re describing the entire world.
Yes, humans are indeed the worst.
Yes, the “If you hate Nazis/Racists/Murderers/etc , you’re just as bad as them” card. Leave that one back in highschool bud ☝🏽🤓.
The important thing is that we dont hurt the bigots feelings, otherwise they might lash out
Lol. Doing it again. No, that’s not what I said at all. But I guess if you’re jumping on the all Americans must die bandwagon too, knock yourself out.
Seriously, fuck off with this shit.
