On October the 8th, a 49 year old gay man named Jack Price was savagely beaten within an inch of his life in College Point, a quiet neighborhood out near Flushing, Queens. On October the 17th a march and rally were held to provide a focal point for the community's support for Jack and to let those who perpetrated this act and those who support them know that their violence is neither accepted nor welcome. OccasionalFag Brian G. went to the march and rally. Here is a short video recap of what he found. It should be noted that after having been placed in a medically induced coma to save his life, Jack Price is doing better and should recover. It will, however, be a long recovery... Comments[1]

- well done video, very moving. Thank you for being out there. This reminds me that I really need to get up off my ass a little more often. It\'s easy for me to pretend that homophobia doesn\'t exist in the world to the extent that it really does, because I live in an open community and can be out at work, etc. Thanks for the reminder to remember others who don\'t have it so easy.
