It was a bar in Arlington Texas. I was there until closing. I was running around with a DJ at the time and we were headed to Dallas for an after hours club/party. We poured out of the club and everyone was standing around talking about who was fit to drive. Then a truckload of men pulled up shooting their rifles into the air and screaming homophobic slurs threatening to kill us. Some of them started jumping out of the truck. One of the guys took off running down the street. Several of the men followed yelling, laughing and shooting their guns in the air. We all scattered. I pushed my DJ friend down in between two cars. He couldn’t get underneath one so I just wedged my body against his as close to the car as possible.
