- 0:39Speaker 3: Pride Daily. Hi there, I'm Kev McGrath. Coming up, putting
- 0:44Speaker 3: pride on ice. First though, more than a thousand people
- 0:49Speaker 3: have turned out for a memorial in Arizona in America
- 0:52Speaker 3: after the hate crime murders of two men outside a
- 0:55Speaker 3: gay bar. 42-year-old Vincent Anthony Siqueiros and Cameron Davis Capara,
- 1:01Speaker 3: who was 33, were shot dead at the Venture N
- 1:04Speaker 3: venue in Tucson. The gunman, whose name's irrelevant, also killed
- 1:08Speaker 3: himself shortly afterwards. He was found with a list of
- 1:12Speaker 3: LGBTQ plus businesses on him. Vincent's sister, Kate Marquez, spoke
- 1:17Speaker 3: at the vigil.
- 1:18Speaker 2: Every person here tonight has given Vincent something he spent
- 1:21Speaker 2: much of his life searching for. The knowledge that he
- 1:24Speaker 2: truly belonged. When he was asked to turn himself down,
- 1:27Speaker 2: he turned himself up. When people questioned his worth, he
- 1:31Speaker 2: stood taller. When people judged whom he loved, he loved harder.
- 1:36Speaker 3: Thanks to KOLD News 13. Evidence was also found at
- 1:40Speaker 3: the gunman's home that killings were motivated by hate. Pride Daily. Next,
- 1:46Speaker 3: the school in Australia where kids are told the gays
- 1:50Speaker 3: are going to hell. St Peter's Lutheran College is one
- 1:53Speaker 3: of Brisbane's top Christian schools. What? There's a religious element here?
- 1:58Speaker 3: And they had a guest speaker in who, it would seem,
- 2:01Speaker 3: wanted to groom its youngest pupils into being hateful bigots.
- 2:06Speaker 3: Some guy who's a trainee from a local church. Big
- 2:09Speaker 3: future ahead of him. The school's now investigating and says
- 2:12Speaker 3: it doesn't support any message that undermines dignity. Pride Daily.
- 2:18Speaker 1: And you know how.
- 2:18Speaker 3: Mahoosive queer ice hockey drama heated rivalries become? Well, one
- 2:23Speaker 3: real life team in America didn't get the memo. Dallas
- 2:27Speaker 3: Stars have cancelled their annual Pride night game, replacing it
- 2:31Speaker 3: with a women in sports night because heaven forfend you
- 2:35Speaker 3: have one and the other. They are going to be
- 2:38Speaker 3: holding a Western night and a Star Wars night, though.
- 2:42Speaker 3: No time to tell you that. Munich's Oktoberfest is having
- 2:46Speaker 3: its first dedicated event for queer women. Beer, Boobs and
- 2:50Speaker 3: Pretzels Monday takes place later this month and it's already
