WILTON MANORS, Florida, June 21, 2021 (LifeSiteNews) — A vehicular accident that left one dead and one injured over the weekend during a Florida “pride” parade has been cited by LGBT activists as anti-gay violence, despite the fact that the vicitims and perpetrator were all associated with a group participating in the event.
Local 10 reports that a white pickup truck ran over two members of the Fort Lauderdale Gay Men’s Chorus Saturday evening during the start of the Stonewall Pride Parade. Both were rushed to the Broward Health Medical Center, where one was pronounced dead and the other is expected to survive. The truck also narrowly missed U.S. Rep. and former Democrat National Committee Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
“Our thoughts and prayers are with those affected by the tragic accident that occurred when the Stonewall Pride Parade was just getting started,” chorus president Justin Knight said through a spokesperson. “Our fellow Chorus members were those injured and the driver was also a part of the Chorus family. To my knowledge, this was not an attack on the LGBTQ community. We anticipate more details to follow and ask for the community’s love and support.”
