Not much reading between the lines required here. The murders are described as similar, and one of them has been described as a hate crime where victim and offender met online.

According to locals on Twitter, at least one of the murdered men was BEHEADED and the man arrested was a Turk. Remember that it's Ramadan right now in the religion of peace.

Going by their proportion in the population of Western countries, Muslims should be responsible for almost no murders of gays. And that isn't the case - they are clearly over-represented (Bath in the UK, Pulse in Florida, etc.)

Apparently Sligo in Western Ireland only has a population of 20k and has a history of homophobic attacks.

And gay men are bashed and killed by Christians overwhelmingly—but you only bring up religion when a non-Christian is involved.
Why is the religion the cause when it’s a Muslim but never religion when it’s a Christian?

And interesting, R10, that you choose to divert attention away from a factor which obviously predisposes people to murdering gay men, i.e. being a Muslim. What saddens me about this is that those who are sowing the wind are not reaping the whirlwind.

R16 I didn't say anything about Muslims, just that Christians don't go around killing people with religious motivations much. The only actual examples I can think of are all fictional- although I'm sure there are real life cases.
Also... have you ever heard of a Buddhist, Hindu, or Jewish religiously-motivated murder carried out in the West? I can't think of one.

UPDATE
A 23-year-old man has been given two life sentences for murdering two men in Sligo last year.
The court heard that Gardaí (police) believed Yousef Palani's motivation "was to carry out murder due to prejudice against homosexuality.”
He further admitted intentionally causing serious harm to Anthony Burke on 9 April. Mr Burke was stabbed in the eye. Mr Palani denied being in Anthony Burke’s house despite his semen from a previous consensual sexual encounter being found on a blanket there as well as evidence from seized phones that linked him to the victims.
The court heard that one murder victim was decapitated with 43 stab wounds. The second man was stabbed 25 times mainly to his head, neck and chest.
He told arresting officers: “I can get angry very quick” and denied he was gay, claiming homosexuality was “a sin, you wont find many Muslims gay and religious”.

Last week there were journalists OUTRAGED that people were suggesting Hamas had beheaded babies in Israel. Less outraged at the actual act, more outraged at the suggestion that Muslims WOULD behead someone (baby or otherwise) because it plays into the trope of a feral, medieval animalistic brown person behaviour.
