No riot is going to supersede the magnitude of this tragedy. That being said, the outright hatred being poured on us as a community is absolutely devastating. To have such a terrible thing happen in this community AND then the community itself be vilified for it is heart-wrenching and extremely difficult to comprehend.
If you have a conscience, I recommend NOT fueling the media firestorm. It isn't helping the victims or their families, and it just ostracizes our community further. Call it how you see it, but keep your righteous anger to yourself and channel it towards something productive.
I found out yesterday Westboro Baptist Church is planning to picket tomorrow (presumably at the football game). I really hope I never see them.
