Bless Richard Fierro and the unnamed drag queen. And honestly, with zero apologies: f*ck you to anyone who has used the word “groomer” about a drag queen, trans advocate, doctor, teacher, librarian, gay person, or ally. #ClubQ #ColoradoSprings #LGBTQ

From the NYTimes: “I grabbed the gun out of his hand and just started hitting him in the head, over and over,” Mr. Fierro said.

As the fight continued, he said, he yelled for other club patrons to help him. A man grabbed the rifle and moved it away to safety. A drag dancer stomped on the gunman with her high heels. The whole time, Mr. Fierro said, he kept pummeling the shooter’s head while the two men screamed obscenities at each other.
