Well, I did post some pictures from the 2011 SD Pride Festival in the Daily Historical Posts. Got to thinking about the disruption that is occuring in people's lives from the enemy of the month policy used by some religious and/or political organizations. Transgender, Black Lives Matter, Prochoice, LGBTQ, Muslim, banned books etc. They create 'enemies' out of fellow Americans to squeeze wallets and gain power over made up issues that do nothing to make this community better. The rallying cry is often 'for the children,' which is a motivation that disappears in gun control, health care, and education policy under nonsense like 'we can't afford that.'
I won't go on, but, after looking at the San Diego Pride 2011 pictures I had taken of people holding up signs answering 'What Are You Proud Of,' I have come to love the phrase:
Stonewall was a riot, long overdue.
