At the time of this report, Chad Gibson, victim of the violent Fort Worth, Texas, police raid of the Rainbow Lounge was still in intensive care with a brain injury. In this video, his mom and eye-witnesses speak out on the heartbreaking (and headcracking) raid that took place on the 40th anniversary of the Stonewall riot in Greenwich Village, NYC.

Igbttube4u You are correct when you say “It’s not a lifestyle.A lifestyle is something you choose.” My appoligies to the gay community because I did not intend to offend anyone.
I mostly wanted the POLICE to know that gatuitous violence was NOT appropriate and futhermore I feel this was a HUMAN RIGHTS violation.
Again my appoligies for being politically incorrect and offending the gay community
How can you be arrested for public intoxication in a bar?
I was wondering the same thing? thats fucked up. As Ron White said “I was drunk in a bar, they threw me in public.”
God, it’s cops like these that undermine the effort of policemen and women who DON’T hide behind their badges to vent their anger or prejudices on the public but actually try to just do their jobs. It takes hard work to earn the respect of a community as a cop, considering the shenanigans of scum like these are what define you to most.
Lol :)
shame on you fort worth your chief of police is an idiot
Just today Mayor Moncreif has asked for an external investigation of FWPD. Let’s see what happens.
The conduct of the Fort Worth police is disgusting. This happening in 2009 is ridiculous.
And the dude wanting this to not be connected to someone being gay? What an idiot… what other motive could it be?
It’s like a movie! The bad cop had a big hard core moustache!!! haahha
All I can think is: things have to change.
You guys sound like that it would never happen. You thinks it’s unthinkable that a drunk homosexual would NEVER EVER make an innocent sexual advance towards an officer in uniform. Well wake the fuck up! YES people are that fucking stupid who cares if he’s gay or not. Stupid is Stupid gay or not gay.
pigs
horrible, those officers and their chief should be held on charges, this is america, these people weren’t accused of anything, public intoxication, in a bar, what a bullshit charge. these cops set this up thinking they could get away with it. i hope to see some kinda of justice for the harm they have done.
nothing will happen to the cops… thats what cops can do
This guy would not do that! I know him well.
Michael Moore’s next movie after the wall-street film, gay discrimination? Please let it be…..
NEVER trust cops! They’re lying, self-serving hypocrites who’ll do anything to perpetuate the myth that they’re “heroes” of a community.
Not that we’re making generalizations or anything…
typical biggoted, gun-ho rednecks…….err i mean: police keeping our children safe..
also, they claim gay sexual advances?
like thats true, but if it is……..
well… when you walk into a gay bar looking like you own the place. wearing a police uniform and brandishing a set of cuffs…what do you expect people to think?
The police say they were Groped.Such it up.If that is true.I don’t believe they groped those officers.
how public intoxication, they were in bar?
cops are professional terrorists used to protect the system not the people.
A.C.A.B.

I don’t believe them either. Who shows up with THAT many officers (with zip ties in hand) during a buisy period to check a liquor license anyway???
a gay man touches you and because you are in a position of authority you have the right to strong arm them into submission? Fucking rednecks.
Thank you SO much. I appreciate your comments and feel that you are sincere. Please know that I value your opinion and understand your reasoning. Please be well and have a great evening and great coming days/years to you and your family.
