ConcernedFWCitizen...get your facts straight.

These "same people" met with Halstead last night. From the Star Telegram this a.m.:

"Halstead spoke at a police-community forum that had already been scheduled at New Beginnings International Church to discuss concerns of residents in Fort Worth’s eastern policing district.

But several members of the gay and lesbian community attended and questioned Halstead about Sunday’s incident

"Why didn’t they do something?" asked Elizabeth Pax, ambassador for Queer Liberaction, a Dallas-based advocacy group. "Why didn’t your officers speak up?"

These "same people" are organizing people to show up next week at the Ft. Worth council meeting.

ConcernedFWCitizen....how many photos do you need to prove police brutality? 5-6 large cops brutally arresting Chad isn't enough? A Photo of Chad's bruised face doesn't suggest excessive force?

ConcernedFWCitizen...calling 7-8 police cars and a paddy wagon showing up to a gay bar as something just "normal" is b.s. The Stonewall Raid had six patrol officers and two detectives. Wanna question that whether that was a raid or not?

ConcernedFWCitzen...why don't you have the guts to display your name. You continue to post all over the place with an obvious bias against activists you don't like.

To the rest of our community that actually do care and are concerned about Chad...show up tonight at the Rainbow Lounge at 8:30 for a candlelight vigil. His injury is very serious and we need to show that we care and support him....unlike our "brother" ConcernedFWCitzen.

We cannot rest until the Ft Worth PD and TABC are held fully accountable for this unjust raid on our community. To be silent will result in it happening again.
