NYC, Philadelphia In Gay Slug Fest

New York City and Philadelphia are slugging it out for the title 'birthplace of gay civil rights'.

For a generation New York has laid claim to the honor - pointing to the the 1969 Stonewall riot - which started when patrons of a gay bar in Greenwich Village fought back in a police raid

But, now, Philadelphia - the City of Brotherly Love - is fighting back, pointing to a 1965 demonstration in front of Independence Hall.


don't these people have more imporant things to worry about like having basic civil rights taken away
