When did this “Massacre of the Homosexuals” happen? And in SF, of all places?

How did I miss that?

One would think the media would have covered such a momentous story more thoroughly!/s

When did this “Massacre of the Homosexuals” happen? And in SF, of all places?

I was wondering about that too, so I did a search and found this on a gay site:

Obama made a direct comparison of Selma to demonstrations of gay Americans in decades past, recalling the Stonewall riots of 1969 and demonstrations in San Francisco upon the assassination of gay supervisor Harvey Milk.

I don't see the comparison. Do you?

Don't worry. It's coming.

THERE WASN’T ANY BLOOD IN THE STREETS...REWRITING HISTORY.

Well, Harvey Milk was killed, not because he was gay, but because of a job dispute.

And then 40,000 people marched through the city streets. But none of them had blood spilled, unless they cut themselves on some broken glass or something.
