Jonathan Joss--voice actor of John Redcorn from King of the Hill, and Ken Hotate from Parks and Rec--was killed in a homophobic hate crime today.

I'm so angry.
Statement from Tristan Kern de Gonzales Husband of Jonathan Joss My husband Jonathan Joss and I were involved in a shooting while checking the mail at the site of our former home. That home was burned down after over two years of threats from people in the area who repeatedly told us they would set it on fire. We reported these threats to law enforcement multiple times and nothing was done. Throughout that time we were harassed regularly by individuals who made it clear they did not accept our relationship. Much of the harassment was openly homophobic. When we returned to the site to check our mail we discovered the skull of one of our dogs and its harness placed in clear view. This caused both of us severe emotional distress. We began yelling and crying in response to the pain of what we saw. While we were doing this a man approached us. He started yelling violent homophobic slurs at us. He then raised a gun from his lap and fired. Jonathan and I had no weapons. We were not threatening anyone. We were grieving. We were standing side by side. When the man fired Jonathan pushed me out of the way. He saved my life. Jonathan is my husband. He gave me more love in our time together than most people ever get. We were newlyweds. We picked Valentines Day. We were in the process of looking for a trailer and planning our future. He was murdered by someone who could not stand the sight of two men loving each other. I was with him when he passed. I told him how much he was loved. To everyone who supported him, his fans, his friends, know that he valued you deeply. He saw you as family. My focus now is on protecting Jonathan’s legacy and honoring the life we built together. If your concern is how someone coped with trauma or how loudly they speak when recounting injustice and being ignored by authorities then you never truly cared about my husband. Jonathan saved my life. I will carry that forward. I will protect what he built. Tristan Kern de Gonzales

This is so horribly, terribly and unthinkably wrong; and we all know the root cause of the effin disgusting, vile, senseless, dehumanizing hatred is the GOP Hate Machine fronted by the Traitor-in-Chief.

According to reports, Jonathan Joss was shot by a neighbor in a hate crime. He was a talented and joyous man. Truly an inspiration. For this to happen is infuriating!

For those who still wonder why we won't shut up about Pride and supporting the LGBTQ community, it's cases like this that are why!

So this murder seems to have been the end result of a targeted anti gay campaign that included burning down their home and killing a pet while San Antonio police refused to intervene

Jonathan Joss' (actor from King of the Hill and Parks and Rec) husband has released a statement that amongst other things claims his murder was part of a homophobic attack.

A high profile hate crime at the very start of Pride.
