This just sent chills up my spine. I was at XL last night with 3 other friends and I almost didn't go because of all the bashings that are going on right now.
They convinced me to go because they said if I didn't I would be letting "them" win if I did. They told me living in fear was not the answer.
...and now I learn that another one of our gay "brothers" has been attacked...
I am so beyond angry right now....and I'm scared.
I will keep Eugene and all our gay brothers and sisters in my thoughts and in my prayers.

Why doesn't the media do follow-up on these stories?
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

My thoughts are with you, Eugene. This makes me deeply sad and angry, I get the chills as I write this. I hope he is okay, but this is one of the scariest things I've read in a while.

An absolutely vile and despicable act. Best wishes for a speedy recovery, Eugene

Eyewitness News is going to have a story about Eugene at 11:00pm. Just saw a commercial for the story. They called him a "well known gay activist," which he certainly is!

"The bottom line is that we are all worth defending." - Eugene Lovendusky
"Lovendusky says he will not cower at home after his attack. In fact he was pleased to tell us tonight that he has been able to secure a promise from one city official for free self defense classes for the gay community." (Lucy Yang reporting)
And it was definitely a punch to the jaw, so that settles that. He said it hurt for about six hours.
He looks good in the video, which was good to see!

So sorry to hear this happened to Eugene!
All the best for a speedy recovery and this animal and all the rest pay for their crimes!
These attacks are increasing at an alarming rate, and I'm sure it's backlash for all of the progress the LGBT community has been making.
Unfortunately, I don't think this will change as it's clear that for some people, it's simply okay to harass/beat/kill gay folks.
Stay safe everyone!

...the comments posted in the article PJ linked just make me shake my head.
I saw Eugene interviewed on the news last night, and he was a strong spokesman for this hateful issue!

Eugene and I had MANY differences here on this board, but this is just awful (I live in HK as well). I'm glad he seems to be doing so much better now.
