Last night a gay couple were physically thrown out of a wine bar on Geary St. called Internos. They were called fagots and hustled out of the bar. Apparently, all they were doing was hugging and looking into each others eyes (how romantic!) and grabbing a drink before Showgirls at Midnight Mass.

Tonight, a few queens are pulling together a KISS-IN at 9pm at Internos Wine Bar. Hit up Anna Conda for more details.

I find this sad and surely goes against my previously held belief that there is no such thing as a truly straight bar in San Francisco. Even more upsetting to me is that this happened in my childhood neighborhood. Go figure.... I own a "The Richmond" t-shirt and wear it proudly as a local of the diverse and generally delightfully friendly neighborhood. This makes me want to somehow mark it up to denote the hate that apparently lies beneath the carpet of summer fog and good Russian & Chinese food.
