While I somewhat get the decision from a security standpoint, doesn't cancelling the pride event give these lowlifes exactly what they want?
What are the odds that a second attack like this happens on the same event?
Pride is a protest as much as it is a celebration.
Attacks like this ruin the celebration, but in my view they also increase the need to protest.
I guess the mood is now ruined.
Early pride events were fueled by anger with a mood of "fuck with us, we dare you".
