Raymond Penko thought he’d been hit in a drive-by shooting. He was, but not with bullets. They were paintballs, fired by at least three men in a sedan who screamed anti-gay slurs from the windows while driving by the San Diego Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender Community Center. Penko was standing in the parking lot with five others after they attended a meeting at the Center, stopped by a nearby cafe, and were returning to their cars. The incident was just one of three paintball attacks reported to police Monday night.

Since the pie in the face of the Belgian archbishop was funny, I guess this is, too.
“Oh noooooo, it’s so differnet cuz of BLAH BLAH BLAH.”
“God you are so self-hating BLAH BLAH BLAH.”
Sorry, but what’s good for one is good for the other.
Either they’re both inappropriate or they’re both funny.

There were three other attacks last night also.
Something really needs to be addressed with these teens and young adults who are basically committing acts of harassment and terror just for the heck of it. There have been SO many of these incidents over the past couple of months that it’s pretty ridiculous it’s not discussed more than it is.
Hopefully these men and everyone attacked doesn’t allow those punks to get to them.

@JUSTICEONTHEROCKS: Actually, that’s not how things work. A+B=C is not applicable in this case, as they are TWO TOTALLY DIFFERENT CASES. So sorry, actually, not sorry, just fuck off quietly.
