The attack has focused the anger of local gay rights activists against the state's legislature for rejecting hate-crimes legislation. House Speaker Newt Gingrich received a personal plea on the issue Tuesday -- from his sister Candace, national spokesperson for the Campaign for Human Rights, who told CNN she believes her brother would agree on the need for strong action against such violence...
