LGBT Groups Denounce FRC Shooting

A massive coalition of LGBT rights groups have issued a joint denouncement of today's shooting at Family Research Council headquarters in Washington DC.

We were saddened to hear news of the shooting this morning at the offices of the Family Research Council. Our hearts go out to the shooting victim, his family, and his co-workers. The motivation and circumstances behind today’s tragedy are still unknown, but regardless of what emerges as the reason for this shooting, we utterly reject and condemn such violence. We wish for a swift and complete recovery for the victim of this terrible incident.

Signees of the above statement include: Truth Wins Out, GLSEN, GLAAD, PFLAG, the Human Rights Campaign, the Nation Center for Transgender Equality, Freedom To Marry, the Victory Fund, the National Gay & Lesbian Task Force, One Colorado, SLDN, the Trevor Project, the Empire State Pride Agenda, and many others. [I work alone, but I too endorse the above statement.]
