The news tonight carried a report that the McKensie Theatre in Springfield,
site of Saturday's PLC/PGMC concert, was vandalized last night with hate
messages -- Kill fags, yes on 9, kill Jews (the owner of the theatre is
Jewish, and BTW straight).

Springfield police are refusing to classify this assault as a hate crime,
calling it simple malicious mischief.

As of this morning the Springfield police are now backpedaling furiously
and have reversed themselves, agreeing to investigate it as a hate crime.
