Default Brief followup on anti-gay attack

I was really pleased to see the Pittsburgh community standing up against the recent attack that was caught on video. Way to go folks!

At a rally Saturday, the community turned out in the bitter cold to show support for White and to show his attackers that they will not tolerate such crime and violence.

U.S. Rep. John Lewis urged the crowd to continue speaking out against crime. “When you see something going wrong, you must do what you are doing today,” Lewis said, according to Channel 2 Action News.

Those gathered also were urged to not let their call for change dissipate after the rally.

“This is not a one day campaign. This is not a one week campaign. This is a lifetime campaign,” said city Councilwoman Cleta Winslow.
