“I am sickened, yet not surprised, by the bullet holes that now riddle the front of the Dennis R. Neill Equality Center,” Oklahomans for Equality Board President Geoffrey Brewster said in an of cial repor t. “They are the latest reminder of the deep-seated hatred some individuals have towards the LGBTQ community.”

LGBTQ Oklahoman activist Sarah M. Bess wrote on her Twitter feed, “Apparently today, after the shooting, someone walked into the gay center yelling hate speech. People are feel- ing bold in their hate down here.”
