First I want to send a big thank you to Russia and its fans for giving us such a large boost of signatures! We have gotten 479 signatures so far today! Thank you to @c-poliann for letting us know where these signatures came from!
We’ve hit the 22,000 milestone! What a perfect time for such a large boost! We aren’t far from our goal now! Just 3,000 more to go and then we can attempt to deliver the petition to Disney!
Keep going everyone! We can do this! This will bring the estimated target time down from 30 days. I’ll crunch some numbers later. Everyone keep signing and raising awareness! Let’s reach 25,000 as soon as possible!
This is now officially, with over 50 casualties, the worst mass shooting in United States history. And the fact that it took place at a gay club was not merely coincidence. This was not just another act of senseless violence in America. This was a hate crime.
A man walked into a safe space for the LGBT community with an assault rifle and lined them up and slaughtered them.
Don’t do what the media is inevitably going to do. Don’t erase where this happened and who this happened to.
When you make your statements for/against gun control, remember this was a hate crime. When you make your statements about the gunman’s reported religious beliefs, remember this was a hate crime. When your politicians make empty promises about changing the way things are, remember this was a hate crime. When you make your statements about the media’s coverage of this, remind everyone this was hate crime.
Do not gloss over the identities of the victims. They were killed for them. This was a hate crime.
I’m #teameveryone, to be honest, but now seems as good a time as any to share the Kim Chi and Bob the Drag Queen pieces I did for Ru Paul’s Drag Con last week! Representing some Macaw and Empire REALNESS
