History
On July 21, 1987, the night before the shooting, 32-year-old Ku Klux Klan member Theodore Compton's house has been egged and TP'd by a group of black men. He sets up a giant wooden cross, threw gasoline at it and set it on fire to scare them away. He was wearing a Ku Klux Klan uniform at this time.

The next night, Compton, still in his Ku Klux Klan uniform, decided to shoot up the Homo Sensual Nightclub with a shotgun. As he broke into the nightclub, he yelled out "ALRIGHT, NI***RS, FAGS, TRANNIES, BEANERS AND SPICS! IT IS TIME FOR YOU ALL TO DIE AND GO TO HELL!" While he shot 16 blacks and 9 Latinos to death, 19 of them (13 blacks and 6 Latinos) are gay and 6 of them are trans (While 2 trans males and 4 trans females, 3 of them are black and 3 of them are Latino). Not only he shot and injured 4 blacks, but 2 Latinos as well, which four of them (2 blacks and 2 Latinos) are gay and two of them (black and Latino) are trans females.

He has shot many contestants at the ballroom that belonged to four houses: House of Angel, House of Diva, House of Fabulous and House of Princess.

An injured black gay man, Cohen Aaron, called the police as the latter headed right towards the Homo Sensual Nightclub as they arrested Compton for 25 years. Now that he has been sentenced 25 years in the Los Angeles County Prison, he has to wait until 25 years later to be released.

In 2012, Compton was set free by the police in the Los Angeles County Prison.
