1. I can see it from my house.

I hate the building but love that they did this.

2. Kick.

Empire State is dark tonight, very rare, and quite the moving contrast.

4. It's still

an ugly building, AFAIC.

5. Perspective. This is glorious compared to

Rick Scott, governor of Florida:

Rick Scott refuses on CNN to acknowledge gay people were targeted at Orlando nightclub

11. Is he even human?

He does have a reptilian look to him.

That's probably not fair to reptiles.

10. The problem is that not a single one of these rainbow images

changes what happened.

If you really care, make it crystal clear to all legislators and governors that REAL gun control must happen NOW.

[Dorian Gray]

13. Maybe not...

but it shows a changing attitude toward our LG&TB brothers and sisters. And it shows a shared humanity and love in the face or horror.

Now, we do need to take it one step further and make it crystal clear to all legislators that REAL gun control must happen NOW.

If Sandy Hook and Virginia Tech didn't do it, this should.

We need to make it difficult for people to buy guns, especially semi-assault rifles.
