Fort Worth PD brutes have no sense of gay history


Police brutality and possible gay targeting days before the 40th anniversary of Stonewall?  Sad but true, as I detail on my blog, as the Fort Worth Police Department claims it was just doing its job. But, investigating claims of serving intoxicated patrons does NOT need a level of force that leads to one person getting a fractured skull.

Fort Worth has one openly gay city councilman, which will help in efforts to get to the bottom of this, but it still won't be easy. And, the FWPD has looked pretty clueless in its PR so far.

And, BurnedOut in comments, the link shows it's OK now.
