Isaiah Lee is opening more about why he allegedly attacked Dave Chappelle, and it would appear DC's LGBT jokes are at the core of it.

jokes that Dave apparently made about homelessness, which Lee says personally hurt him -- as he himself had experienced it at a young age. Lee says,"I’m also a single dad and my son is five. It’s a struggle and I wanted Dave Chappelle to know it’s not a joke.

..." Plus, jokes earlier in the night talking pedophilia rocked Lee as well. He says he was sexually abused as a minor.On his gruesome injuries, Lee said ..."They spat on me and twisted me as if on purpose." He also acknowledged having the fake-gun-turned knife on him that night, adding Chappelle asked why he did it. Lee says ..."I told him my mother and grandmother, who fought for his civil rights to be able to speak, would be upset at the things he said." To that, Chappelle allegedly replied ..."Now your story will die with you, son." Lee was recently hit with more serious, unrelated charges that could see him behind bars for years.
