Why were all the gay people at the Stonewall Riots white gay people?
>>18541167Everybody was white back then
>>18541167>we gotta deal with these disgusting faggots
>>18541167They weren’t at first. A lot of the rioters were black and latinx drag queens and the normie white gays only showed up later. The Stonewall Inn was a mob controlled shithole catering to tranny hookers and chasers, and the cops weren’t getting paid off enough to leave the place alone.

It was definitely a mob controlled shithole that was paying off the cops though. A lot of vice shit like that (prostitution) was in cahoots with police. I think bail bondsmen acted as middlemen so the vice bars, brothels etc. would pay a bondsman to launder the money to the police union.
>>18541783I think that’s how it went down though. The first night was street hustlers brawling with the cops, while the boojie, bohemian and closeted gays had no clue what was going down, and they only joined in later, sensing this was part of the big 60s counterculture wave. Even Allen Ginsberg, the most outspoken fag in America, was late to the party. Whatever gay rights movement existed up until then was trying very hard to be respectable “we’re just as boring as straight people” and black drag queens throwing bricks at the cops was the last thing they wanted.
