March for Alleged WikiLeaker, Gay Hero Bradley Manning at SF Pride

A Bradley Manning Pride Contingent joined the San Francisco Pride parade on Sunday, June 26th.

Dedicated to equal human rights, Army Private Bradley Manning stood openly against Don't Ask Don't Tell, and now is imprisoned as the alleged WikiLeaks whistle-blower. Bradley faces life in prison, and even the death penalty, for sharing the "Collateral Murder" video and files pertaining to the Iraq War, Afghanistan War, and Guantánamo.

Peter Tatchell, a British activist well-known for his work with LGBT social movements, has heralded Bradley Manning as a "gay hero."
