I'm so much more upset about this than I thought I would be.
Two years after fatal shooting, Tel Aviv gay youth club faces closure.
It's pretty much a slap in the face from the municipality towards the LGBT community in Tel-Aviv.
They'll spend obscene amounts of money of a Pride Parade, in which more people from abroad participated than locals from outside of Tel-Aviv if reports are to be believed.
It was supposed to be a safe place for queer youth, it stopped being that and has since become a memorial and I'm so sad to see it go.
Goes to show what the most liberal city in Israel thinks of its gay youth.
Excuse me while I go cry a bit.
