February 2, 2006 - 8:00 am ET: A young man with blonde hair and wearing a black coat walked into Puzzles Lounge in New Bedford, Massachusetts early Thursday morning, calmly pulled out a gun and began firing.

There were 18 people in the bar at the time.

Witnesses accounts of what transpired vary. Some people said that the man also was armed with an axe. Others say he had a machete and hatchet.

A bartender told local media that the man asked if the the club was gay and if there were any other gay bars in town. Then he began shooting.

Other witnesses said that the attacker hit a man with the hatchet first and as customers tried to subdue him he began shooting...more

Nobody took the guy out, he escaped and hasn't been seen since.

you've gotta seriously hate a group of people to do something that extreme.. something must have happened to this guy when he was a kid or something

Greetings All:

As you all know I spend a great deal of time on here poking fun at sexuality, including my own homosexuality. I've found one of the best ways to break down barriers is through the use of humor, and I think it's served me well on this site so far.

However, when things like this happen, I think it's important to take a moment to remind everyone of the struggles that gays and lesbians in this country face on a daily basis.

We have come a long way towards educating society about what homosexuality really is, and what it is not. We've also slowly started to make headway towards equal protections and rights, but we still have a long way to go.

If you're an individual struggling to cope with your own sexuality, please know there are others out there that know how you feel, and are waiting to help. The following resources are out there waiting for you:

Pflag's Coming Out Page
The Advocate
Queer America - Find Local Support Centers

As for the incident itself, I feel for those families. I would encourage those wishing to show their support to think about making a donation to one of the organizations that fight against this type of hatred toward the gay community on a daily basis:

Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation
The Human Rights Campaign
The National Gay And Lesbian Taskforce

Thanks everyone. Promise there will be no more preaching from me.....

BoyAlley · 02-02-2006, 08:53 AM

I forgot to include the following resource from my post above:

Gay And Lesbian National Help Center
They provide free telephone counseling services, and I suggest it would be a good place for you to start.

Homosexuality is the human race's built-in defense mechanism against overpopulation.. I'm all for it!

One day the roles will be reversed - heterosexuals will be a minority and may even live in shame.
