By Charlotte Robinson, August 16, 2012
We received this Joint Statement regarding the shooting at Family Research Council (FRC) from lesbian, gay, bisexual & transgender (LGBT) organizations. “We were saddened to hear news of the shooting this morning at the offices of the Family Research Council. Our hearts go out to the shooting victim, his family & his co-workers.
