Love is louder than hate: Fellow Colorado Springs LGBTQ+ bar stands with ClubQ. via ColetteBordelon
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Josh Franklin grew up in Colorado Springs and was always unapologetically true to himself, but as a gay teenager, it was not easy.
“I would come back for the holidays to stay with my family and they live right by Club Q. And so you know, the high school friends that I kept in touch with, it was sort of our holiday tradition to stop by Club Q," Franklin said."They [Club Q] were nothing but kind when we had this crazy idea and continued to be very supportive.”
“It was just really overwhelming. How do we as, you know, as the other queer spaces, how do we be supportive? But how do we keep people safe?” Franklin asked. “There's no protocol for this, you know, there's no right thing to do.” “I can't imagine what our friends at Club Q are going through. I know how we're feeling. I can't imagine being in their shoes. And I don't want to and I shouldn't have to," Franklin said.“When it's hard to keep going, sometimes it feels like you don't have a choice, because there's no other option," Wolfe said.
