A spoke to a dozen LGBTQ students in Florida about the impact that the “Don’t Say Gay” law will have on their lives. Many are already enduring daily harassment, rape threats, and death threats. They believe the new law will make it impossible to get help. huffpost.com/entry/florida-…
.Rep. Anna V. Eskamani, PhD 🔨 noticed more companies we didn't filter for in Disney's overall political donations! She's pointing out a house republican, but you can find even more stats on the FL state senate "Don't Say Gay" bill supporters here: whereischapek.com/disneys-politi…
Peaceful so far, good, but: 1) They prob don't have a permit(2 days isn't enough time) 2) Illegally blocking sidewalk 3) Parked in a no park zone And appears Burbank Police is allowing this/working with them What gives @KonstantineinCA?
How is literally facilitating this clear act of hate and intimidation towards Disney employees the appropriate response? Burbank Police @KonstantineinCA Employees literally have been warned about this and instructed how to avoid it for their safety, but sure, let them stay.
It's one thing if they had a permit to express their right to protest, but did they? If not, Burbank Police helped normalize bigots doing whatever they want, law be damned, serving only to accelerate the potential for violence. Where is the line drawn? When they start hurting us?
