  • La redada en el Rainbow Lounge ocurrió a las altas horas de la madrugada el 28 de junio de 2009 en el Rainbow Lounge, un bar gay en Fort Worth (Texas).​ La redada fue llevada a cabo por miembros de la Comisión de Bebidas Alcohólicas de Texas (Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission, TABC) y el departamento de policía local.​ Varios clientes fueron arrestados por embriaguez pública y un cliente, Chad Gibson, recibió severas heridas en la cabeza y lesiones cerebrales mientras se encontraba en custodia. La policía afirmó que clientes del bar les habían hecho proposiciones sexuales, llegando al contacto. Otros clientes fueron detenidos y liberados más tarde sin haber sido detenidos.​ En respuesta al incidente, varios testigos que se encontraban en el bar esa noche, incluyendo a Todd Camp, el director artístico del festival de cine LGBT local, comenzaron una campaña de concienciación de base, lanzando una página informativa en Facebook llamada «Rainbow Lounge Raid». En las siguientes semanas, la página llegó a tener casi 15 000 miembros. Se organizó una protesta en las escaleras del juzgado del Condado de Tarrant la tarde siguiente. El grupo de defensa de los derechos LGBT basado en Dallas, , organizó una vigila con velas por la víctima, una acción «Milk Box» y, más tarde, una protesta más formal.​​ El hecho tuvo una especial relevancia en los medios de comunicación debido a que la redada ocurrió durante el 40 aniversario de los Disturbios de Stonewall, una famosa redada de una bar gay que se considera que inició el movimiento de los derechos LGBT moderno.​ El Rainbow Lounge está situado en el número 651 de la avenida South Jennings, en una zona de Fort Worth donde abundan los bares gays.​ (es)
  • The Rainbow Lounge raid occurred in the early morning hours of June 28, 2009, at the Rainbow Lounge, a newly opened gay bar in Fort Worth, Texas. The raid was carried out by members of the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC) and the Fort Worth Police Department. Several customers were arrested for public intoxication and one customer, Chad Gibson, received a severe head and brain injury while in custody. The police also claimed the customers made sexual advances and contact with them. Other customers were detained and later released without arrest. In response to this incident, several of the witnesses in the bar that evening, including Todd Camp, the artistic director of the local gay and lesbian film festival, began a grassroots awareness campaign with the launch of the informational Facebook page "Rainbow Lounge Raid." Over the next several weeks, the page's membership grew to nearly 15,000. Several local organizers planned a protest on the steps of the Tarrant County Courthouse the next afternoon. The Dallas-based LGBT rights group Queer Liberaction organized a candlelight vigil for the victim, a Milk Box event, and a later more formal protest. It has been of particular interest to the media that the raid took place on the 40th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots, a notable raid of a gay bar which prompted the modern gay rights movement. The address of the club, 651 South Jennings Avenue, was a classic location of gay bars in Fort Worth. The club was destroyed by the fire eight years later. (en)
