Israel on Monday charged an ultra-Orthodox man with murder for stabbing a 16-year-old girl to death and wounding five others at a Gay Pride parade, as he lashed out at homosexuality in court.

Yishai Shlissel, who was released from prison only three weeks before the stabbing for a similar attack, mentioned the name of the 16-year-old girl killed during his appearance at the court that charged him, news website Ynet reported.

“The pride parade must be stopped in order for the soul of Shira Banki to ascend to heaven,” Shlissel, 39 and with a long beard, told the court in Jerusalem. “If you care for her well-being… you must stop cursing against God. The parade marchers are bringing great harm upon the nation of Israel.”

Besides the murder accusation, Shlissel was also charged with aggravated assault and six counts of attempted murder over the attack on the march last month in Jerusalem, the justice ministry said. Shlissel has so far refused the help of a lawyer and said he does not accept the court’s authority, but a psychiatric exam has found him fit to stand trial.

1. They should drop him off in the middle of Syria

He can show the asshole fundies there that they have more in common than they think!

2. He sounds like an anti-gay fundy or "sovereign citizen" here in the US.

I guess we'll always have people like this around.

3. Shlissel, 39 and with a long beard

Cut the fucking beard off, shave him and toss him in a dark cell. Repeat as necessary.
