My
CL
is
a
Honduran
gay
man
fleeing
persecution
as
LGBT
and
also
because
of
a
parallel
intrafamily
feud
that
resulted
in
two
murders
and
crosses
over
into
the
LGBT
claim.
The
LGBT
persecution
was
the
prominent
claim.
IJ
Miller
denied
the
claim
for
the
following
reasons:
- Honduran homosexual men do not constitute a PSG
- Amorphous
- Not particular
- Not defined
- Too diffuse
- No
social
distinction
within
Honduran
society
