CALIFORNIA'S RIVERSIDE COUNTY GOP. Ready for Hillary: “I was made aware of derogatory tweet this afternoon toward Secretary Clinton when the Press-Enterprise called me for comment. I was horrified and had the tweet taken down immediately,” [Riverside County GOP Chairman Scott] Mann said in an email to the Times on Wednesday afternoon. “While some may think it was political satire, it clearly has no place in American political dialogue. As chairman of the Republican Party of Riverside County, I apologize to everyone and anyone who was offended by it.”

SAME OLD STORY. Gay characters in Hollywood mainstream films barely there: “…alongside the smell of popcorn, there's a strong whiff of studio cowardice at the multiplex this summer with film-makers holding back when they should have been letting go. Rather than being offered some much-needed diversity, we've been given a stale reminder of the tiresome heteronormativity that continues to stifle change within blockbusters.”

AMSTERDAM. Security boosted for Gay Pride canal parade: “This year the city is also hosting the EuroPride event and authorities warned there “will be substantially more police present than last year” during the regular annual Gay Pride celebrations. No specific threat has been made against the city or the gay pride celebrations, authorities said, adding the first 10 days marked by over 300 events had gone well.”
