Nashville Gay Bars Mailed Threatening Anti-Gay Leaflets

Several gay bars in Tennessee have been mailed anti-gay flyers this month, WTVFreports.

The bars were mailed a graphic of the letters LGBT with the State of Liberty, an assault rifle, a beer bottle and President Donald Trump above their corresponding letters. The assault rifle in the picture was the same that used in the mass shooting on the Pulse nightclub in Orlando in 2016.

“When you put a picture of an assault rifle on there which was used in the Pulse shooting and you mail it to every LGBT bar in Nashville, that is coming from a hateful place,” said Melvin Brown, owner of Stirrup Sports Bar in south Nashville.

“To say that it’s disturbing is an understatement.”

“The mid-terms are right around the corner and I think somebody is trying to incite a reaction,” he added.
