Tudi na DIHu smo žalostni in obsojamo kakršnokoli nasilje. Včerajšnji dogodek nam je v opomin, da v družbi še vedno obstajata nestrpnost in sovražnost do drugačnosti, zato je toliko bolj pomembno, da nas to ne ustavi pri skupnih prizadevanjih za bolj odprto in enakopravno družbo.

Pridružujemo se izjavi organizacije ILGA v zvezi z dogodkom:

“It is impossible not to note that the attack took place in a gay club, and right in the middle of Pride month,” ILGA co-Secretaries General Ruth Baldacchino and Helen Kennedy say. “This hate crime hurts even more, as it hits the LGBTIQ community in a time of joy and celebration. We are grieving for the victims, and thinking about all those who are affected by this shooting, and are calling for the whole community to respond to this crime by staying united. Hate must have no place in our society and our struggle will continue until all are safe and equal.”
