FREDDIE’S BEACH BAR and restaurant just down the road from Falls Church, the only openly LGBTQ+ gathering place in Northern Virginia, welcomed hundreds of patrons and supporters to a 1969-like “Love In” last Saturday in reaction to a spate harassment by haters who recently called in a bomb threat and have demonstrated outside the establishment. When three who claimed they were from a “non-denominational church” in Northern Virginia did so this Saturday, a phalanx of pro-gay supporters calling themselves the Rainbow Defense Coalition, stood in front of them with open rainbow-colored umbrellas to diminish their impact. Terre Hoot, a comedian drag performer from Indiana, led a book reading at the event, hosted by Freddie Lutz, popular owner of Freddies. Supporters in attendance included State Sen. Barbara Favola, Commonwealth Attorney Parisa Deghani-Tafti, State Del. Adele McClure, Arlington County board member Maureen Coffee, reporter Lou Chibarro of the Washington Blade and the News-Press’ Nicholas Benton. (News-Press Photos)
