More Violence

As we used to say in my old neighborhood, "When's this shit gonna stop?"


A report released today "reveals" something too many of us know:  In spite of all of the tolerance campaigns, violent crimes against LGBT people rose 13 percent in 2010, according to a recent report.  


Transgenders and people of color are most likely to be harassed, beaten or killed, according to that report.  


Unfortunately, I don't think many of us are surprised.
