Not In Our Town BG stands with all people, nationally and locally, who grieve in Orlando. Our hearts are broken by the loss of innocent lives and we are outraged by the fact that the victims were targeted representatives of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer people in our society. We acknowledge this grim reminder that there are those who feel hatred toward the LGBTQ community and display their feelings through action.
NIOT-BG stands against all actions of discrimination, prejudice and hate, and stands firm with groups subject to such behavior. We will support and join the vigil planned for Wednesday June 15 at 7 p.m. on the community “greenspace” at Grove Street and Wooster Street. As we extend our thoughts and prayers to the City of Orlando, and those grieving around the country, we give voice to our continuing vision of an inclusive, respectful community here in Bowling Green.
