Three people shot at a San Francisco Pride Event.

Other sources say Four were shot.

Please, please, please, if you are on my flist/rlist or just reading this randomly and in SF be safe!

I hope they catch the fucking sub-human who did this!

More News as I read it.

What a nightmare.

Happy Fucking Pride...

The first article has an update that says the suspect was apprehended, so there's that small comfort, I guess.

Oh fuck. I can't even bear to read about it just yet.

Usually I do, and I will. But sometimes I like to make sure that I have the time and energy first, and yes, this is a privilege and I know it.

Huh. It's not getting national coverage--neither the NYT nor CNN have any mention of it. Nice to know that shooting three people at the biggest queer event in the states is considered local news. Grr.

Oh, scary. I hate how many guns there are in this country, just kinda lying around ready to shoot people.

Ugh. At least no serious injuries from this.

Perhaps the next time someone whines about "my right to tell those gays they're sinners will be infringed!", you can kindly tell them "When you have credible evidence that you will be shot because of that belief, then we'll talk."

V and Justice

V: Ah, I was forgetting that we are not properly introduced. I do not have a name. You can call me V. Madam Justice...this is V. V... this is Madam Justice. hello, Madam Justice.

Justice: Good evening, V.

V: There. Now we know each other. Actually, I've been a fan of yours for quite some time. Oh, I know what you're thinking...

Justice: The poor boy has a crush on me...an adolescent fatuation.

V: I beg your pardon, Madam. It isn't like that at all. I've long admired you...albeit only from a distance. I used to stare at you from the streets below when I was a child. I'd say to my father, "Who is that lady?" And he'd say "That's Madam Justice." And I'd say "Isn't she pretty."

V: Please don't think it was merely physical. I know you're not that sort of girl. No, I loved you as a person. As an ideal.

Justice: What? V! For shame! You have betrayed me for some harlot, some vain and pouting hussy with painted lips and a knowing smile!

V: I, Madam? I beg to differ! It was your infidelity that drove me to her arms!

V: Ah-ha! That surprised you, didn't it? You thought I didn't know about your little fling. But I do. I know everything! Frankly, I wasn't surprised when I found out. You always did have an eye for a man in uniform.

Justice: Uniform? Why I'm sure I don't know what you're talking about. It was always you, V. You were the only one...

V: Liar! Slut! Whore! Deny that you let him have his way with you, him with his armbands and jackboots!

V: Well? Cat got your tongue? I though as much.

V: Very well. So you stand revealed at last. you are no longer my justice. You are his justice now. You have bedded another.

Justice: Sob! Choke! Wh-who is she, V? What is her name?

V: Her name is Anarchy. And she has taught me more as a mistress than you ever did! She has taught me that justice is meaningless without freedom. She is honest. She makes no promises and breaks none. Unlike you, Jezebel. I used to wonder why you could never look me in the eye. Now I know. So good bye, dear lady. I would be saddened by our parting even now, save that you are no longer the woman I once loved.

*KABOOM!*
