“A thing that I’ve dealt with my entire life as a gay man is extreme prejudice, from threats to constant harassment,” Rob said, noting that his landlord had previously told his neighbors that he was a “filthy queer.” Fearing an escalation, he called the police. According to a police report, the man jumped into the argument and threatened Rob - who asked that we not use his full name - with a homophobic slur. His landlord had been calling him about maintenance issues in his Columbus, Ohio, apartment, but that night she came with a male companion and began to scream at him. Rob heard a loud knock at his door late one night in August 2014.
