Things were thrown at us and there was a malicious intention. We did report the incident to the Police forces and hopefully we managed to find shelter at the Victoria Miro Gallery.<br /><br />Sr Angelpopstitute<br />Live life now and act with loveSr angelpopstitutehttp://www.londonsisters.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-8616730842139366012009-10-26T01:34:36.887-04:002009-10-26T01:34:36.887-04:00I'm glad I saw of this event.

When I'm walking around London I often see signs that say "Stop Hate Crimes" or "Police Take Notice of Hate Crimes" things to that effect. I feel very safe in London as a lesbian, much safer actually than in small town America. Do wish I'd be in town for the 30th though, that's a real bummer.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01415829193076839661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-35228221172351575812009-10-25T15:07:29.402-04:002009-10-25T15:07:29.402-04:00As press liaison officer for the event I need to p...As press liaison officer for the event I need to point out that the three people arrested have been charged with manslaughter not murder.<br /><br />Tony Green<br /><br />tgreenuk@googlemail.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
