The pub is known locally to be LGBT+ friendly and was obviously targeted by this far right mob.
Today memorials to the Nazi persecution of the gay community are found in Berlin, Amsterdam, San Francisco, Sydney and Tel Aviv.
The fight must never end because the hate will never end. Our community is a target once again.
Unlike other victims of Nazi persecution, they were not offered reparations and it took until 2002 for the German government to officially apologise for the Nazisβ crimes against gay people.
Instead they were transferred to prisons, then under the control of the Allied forces. Their crime, homosexuality, something outlawed before the Nazis took power, remained on the statute book until 1968 in East Germany and 1969 in West Germany.
A quiet reminder: When the allies liberated the concentration camps, many of the Gay people who were imprisoned were not set free.

Richard Dawkins linking to a piece by Julie Bindel.
it looks like Richard Dawkins (The God delusion) has become so irrelevant that he's gaining followers from the very same people he used to have disdain for. Gone from just being Transphobic to being anti-gay too. Even the scientific community are disowning him.
Thank you for sharing this.
But how long before the chosen country of refuge goes down the same route as the UK?
One favourable country is Southern Ireland, but immigration protests in Dublin are showing the intolerance of some.
The US satire cartoon show South Park secured a five-year deal worth $1.5β―billion with Paramount Global. They began their season with this clip, challenging Trump to sue them.
An excellent commentary. Clear language and straight to the point.
Read it and repost.
Thanks, but I was being sarcastic.

The ones who looked happy.
