Bay Area Orgers are You OK?

Was anyone at the Castro last night?
Did whoever go make it out before the shooting?

I don't go anymore. I stopped going after the stabbings one year. It's terrible. It used to be so much fun. Everybody was crazy and wore outrageous costumes but there was never any major problems. It's sooo totally different now.

Like the article says, it now attracts gay bashers. It's awful.


Thanks Ehuffnsd.

I was in San Fran on Halloween about 6 years ago and we went down to the Castro. Had fun for about an hour or so, but it really was just too many people for me.

Yeah, it totally is. I was once hanging out near the CASTRO STREET THEATER watching the people and the costumes. I could literally lift my feet off the ground. That's how packed in I was.

I think Queensday is bigger, but also more spread out. There was one point where we were literally squished people on people in the street for about 30 minutes to get maybe 30 feet. Like the front of the stage at a sold out, general admission concert. That part was awful. I remember queensday getting quite crowded in parts, but just not as intense. and there was always breathing room at least within a few feet or so.

Same logic of people who bomb abortion clinics.

Indeed, probably the same people.
