White Night Riots: Police Car on fire at the Civic Center - state building in the background. San Francisco, May 21 1979 - Greg Gaar

The sentencing of assassin Dan White (an ex cop), given a mere seven years for "voluntary manslaughter" instead of first degree murder, for the premeditated killings of Supervisor Harvey Milk and Mayor George Moscone led to riots and counter-riots by the people and police of San Francisco

Dan, the gourmet.

Here's a little intro for this man. It's really short but it's the best I can do now. Don't ask how much time it took me to write these four things 🙃.

*He was born in 1986 (James in '87 and Rose '88) that makes him the same age as Jared.

*Pronouns: He/Him, but accepts they/them. Bi, prefers men.

*In 2015, he moved in to the same building where Rose and James were living in that moment.

*He used to be a sous chef working for an important chef but quit after some years because it was a toxic environment and the chef used to mistreat those below him. Now he's a food critic, has his own YouTube channel and a food blog. Restaurants, hotels, private chefs etc pay him to eat for free in exchange for a good review.

*Daniel is the grandfather of Méith. One night coming back from work, he found a cat in the street and he stopped to pet her. The cat was so sweet that he decided to brought her home. It didn't take long to notice the cat was pregnant and weeks later she had kittens. Eventually when kittens were old enough to be alone, he went door by door asking if anyone wanted one and that's how he met James and Rose. When was leaving, Dan said something like "what a cutie" that James thought it was for Rose but it wasn't 🤭.

*He really thinks James is treat 🤭, but also knows it's impossible because James is straight but mostly because his love for Rose, but he'll drop a pickup line if he can (She'll find the thing quite hilarious because James is going to be all shy because he never was in a similar situation before 😂.) Always respectfully, of course.

*He'll not meet Jared and if he does, probably Daniel will find him insufferable and that could be a stab at Jared's pride.

*Finally I have a true cat lover.

If it ever has happened when was the last time a governor of a state was assassinated or shot by a assassin? Was it when finestein rose to power?

I'm pretty sure that the last time any Governor was actually shot in an assassination attempt was when George Wallace was running for President in 1972 while he was Governor of Alabama and was paralyzed from the waist down in a shooting at a campaign stop in Maryland. Other than that, I think the only relatively recent assassination attempt where a Governor was wounded was when Texas Governor John Connally was seriously wounded while riding in JFK's limo at the time of President Kennedy's assassination in Dallas. Of course, Connally was not the target of that shooting, but he was badly wounded.

Dianne Feinstein never actually served as Governor (she lost a race for Governor of California to Pete Wilson in 1990). As president of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, she assumed the mayorship when Mayor George Moscone and Supervisor Harvey Milk were assassinated in City Hall by disgruntled former Supervisor Dan White in 1978.

Arizona Whirlwind 1944

[collectorsweekly]

On May 21, 1979—40 years ago this week—the White Night Riots erupted in San Francisco after a jury returned a not-guilty verdict for Dan White, who killed Mayor George Moscone and openly gay Supervisor Harvey Milk. A peaceful rally descended into vandalism and violence at City Hall and the SFPD retaliated by targeting LGBTQ protestors and patrons in the Castro district.
