We should be worried that police are adopting a “shoot to kill” policy, especially when we don’t know how far it’s application will go. It could quickly result in the deaths of innocent civilians. Unchecked, it easily becomes a culture and we end up with situations like the U.S

Not really. You probably think so because ‘successful’ gay people are the ones we get to see being most visible (probably because money/power affords them that comfort). Most gay people live ordinary lives across all walks of life, and suffer the struggles just same.

My grandma says it’s named that way because long ago, the women of the area had to walk far to get water. They then had to use their skirts “go garela” (make a supporting base for) the water pots on their heads. It became known as “Tsola mosese o garele”.
