In the 1990s, Colorado Springs gained national attention as evangelical Christians there worked to block gay rights. In the decades since, LGBTQ advocates have built community and celebrated wins in the Springs. Then tragedy struck. @MarcSallinger reports for @nexton9news.
We were looking out the window and I said to Jean “Wow, imagine inventing a car.”

I just learned America has a thing called Trunk or Treat where people dress up, drive to a parking lot, and pretend it's ok we don't have walkable communities anymore.
