I view some of the ideals in Christianity wrong, but that doesn't mean he's automatically a Christian due to a hate crime. There's other religions with similar ideals.
It's South Florida, that's how I know. Also, there's this:

"The 25-year-old victim said the child chased her down the street shortly after midnight in the area of Church Street and Rio Grande Avenue, which is near the Citrus Bowl, while firing shots and yelling threats and homophobic slurs at her, investigators said. Seven shots were fired. The boy lives with his grandmother, Josephine Felder"

Florida religious breakdown:

Christian:
Protestant, 40%
Roman Catholic, 26%
Baptist, 9%
Methodist, 6%
Pentecostal, 3%
---------
Non-christian:
Jewish, 3%
other religions, 3%
non-religious, 16%

Oh no! This incident happened in the vicinity of Church street! Yep, that settles it. The kid was definitely a Christian. Roll Eyes That's a stretch even for your hate-filled self.
-84% christian state
-Boy lives with grandmother
-Elderly people are far more religious than younger americans
-Shouting homophobic slurs

Yeah, the evidence for Christian hate-crime sure is weak here.  Roll Eyes
