WHITES WIN! FAG BAR SHUTS DOWN AFTER ONE WEEK
You doubt the power of local blogs?
Check this out. And remember: our reporting of the opening of this "Rainbow Club" was our first scoop.
Community 'not ready' yet for GLBT bar
Chris Boning
Issue date: 12/7/06 Section: News
For one week, Glen Van Dyke was the owner of Kirksville's only gay bar.
Van Dyke opened The Rainbow Club in mid-November at 303 W. McPherson St. in the former Coyote's location.
The Rainbow Club shut down after one week of business because of immediate opposition from members of the Kirksville community.
"Basically what happened was the first night people came in, and the word went around town real quick," he said. "Then a lot of people were afraid to come in over there."
Van Dyke said he closed the bar after he received more negative reactions than positive to The Rainbow Club. He mentioned he read an especially discouraging post on the Web site kirksvilletoday.com and said he did not want to be responsible for anyone reading the post and then deciding to hurt a patron of The Rainbow Club.
Van Dyke said the bar was for more than GLBT people.
"It was intended for anybody that's gay, [so they] can have a place to go where they don't feel uncomfortable and for anyone else who wanted to go who didn't want to cause trouble," he said.
Van Dyke said he came up with the idea for a gay bar after one of his bartenders went to the Prism dance and described the experience to him.
"They said there was like [500 to 600] people out there," he said. "If there's that many people, then maybe there's a need."
Van Dyke said he also wanted to open a bar that wouldn't compete against his other establishment, My Bar, which is more student-orientated.
Junior Stephen Barnes said he had heard a rumor about a gay bar opening in Kirksville, but he is not surprised by Van Dyke's decision to close the bar.
"I don't even want to put it in a negative way, ... I just don't feel like [the city is] ready for it," he said. "I mean, they're not ready for it, so it makes sense to me that they would shoot the idea down."
Barnes said he thought it would be great to see a gay bar in Kirksville, even if it wasn't for GLBT people exclusively.
"It would be nice," he said. "If nothing else, even if it wasn't a gay bar, just a hangout or a regular club or whatever, it would be nice to have another option in town. As the gay bar option, it wouldn't be frequented just by gay people. It would be something for anybody to hang out at because gay bars are by no means exclusively gay clientele."
Van Dyke said another reason to open The Rainbow Club is because many people drive down to Columbia to visit the gay bar, Soco Club.
Barnes said he knows people who drive to the bar and hang out. A St. Louis native, Barnes, said he personally does not have problems finding places to go to at home, but he recognized that this is not the case for people living in northeast Missouri.
"Here, if you live in northern Missouri, then you do have to go farther," he said. "So, in that regard, I guess its location would be good for people who live in this area who don't want to drive as far."
Barnes said he has never felt discriminated against on campus or in town.
"However, I would not, for example, be comfortable walking around town holding my boyfriend's hand," he said. "I haven't experienced [discrimination], but just the underlying possibility of it keeps me from being completely comfortable."
Barnes, nonetheless, said this is not an issue and something that he accepts.
"It would always be nice for people to more open-minded, but that's how I think in general," he said.
Senior Greg Wisa, Prism dance chair, said that on the day of the dance, a woman from an out-of-town development group approached him and wanted to know if he thought there was enough of a gay population to support a bar in Kirksville.
"I had to respond honestly. I think it would be nice, and I think it would be great for the gay community, [and] I would like to see one. However I really just don't think it would fly," he said. "I don't think there's enough clientele that would be willing to patronize often enough to keep it open.
Sophomore Elizabeth Koballa, Prism social chair said she thinks a gay bar could be successful in Kirksville, provided that organizations such as Prism get involved and the bar targets more than just GLBT people.
"I think once it's got its feet on the ground, it'll develop clientele, and it'll get a reputation," she said. "As a bar it will have certain things to offer that aren't just for gay people, and I think that'll attract more people. We are in Kirksville, and you can't always go to the Dukum when it's really, really, really crowded. There aren't enough venues for the situations that we have."
Jeff Newton, City Council member and owner of Il Spazio, said the Council was unaware of any plans for a gay bar, although he said he saw the post on kirksvilletoday.com.
"I thought it was a joke," he said.
Newton, also former owner of the now-defunct night club Bohemia, said he had heard rumors that his establishment was a gay bar, but he said he did not intend it to be.
He said he is still not sure if that contributed to a lack of business, but he said a gay bar would not work anyway.
"There's not a market for it," he said.
Van Dyke said his next plans are for an 18-and-up establishment that would feature dancing and no alcohol because he is finished trying to open a gay bar in Kirksville.
"For a while, it was the talk of the town," he said.

Van Dyke's bullshit aside, a bar for queers is always and only one thing:
an incubator for sexually transmitted diseases, i.e.,
a THREAT TO PUBLIC HEALTH.
People, led by leftist college profs, bitch about nonexistent or barely existent threats to water and air. Not a word about the very real threat posed by the facilitation of the exchange of infected fluids that happens every time two queers interact.

You should see the "newspaper" published by my university. I counted in one issue, 6 fag-related articles out of 10. Also they have one column dedicated strictly to fag "lifestyles", and ANOTHER one about how fags are "persecuted". Really.

Thanks go Kirksville Today, who knows how many people won't contract AIDS.
The White people of Kirksville have good sense. It's just a question of who leads them.
Down with rent-a-hicks, up with Normal Whites.

* Levels of Promiscuity Prior to the AIDS epidemic, a 1978 study found that 75 percent of white, gay males claimed to have had more than 100 lifetime male sex partners: 15 percent claimed 100-249 sex partners; 17 percent claimed 250-499; 15 percent claimed 500- 999; and 28 percent claimed more than 1,000 lifetime male sex partners. Levels of promiscuity subsequently declined, but some observers are concerned that promiscuity is again approaching the levels of the 1970s. The medical consequence of this promiscuity is that gays have a greatly increased likelihood of contracting HIV/AIDS, syphilis and other STDs.
Similar extremes of promiscuity have not been documented among lesbians. However, an Australian study found that 93 percent of lesbians reported having had sex with men, and lesbians were 4.5 times more likely than heterosexual women to have had more than 50 lifetime male sex partners. Any degree of sexual promiscuity carries the risk of contracting STDs.
* Physical HealthCommon sexual practices among gay men lead to numerous STDs and physical injuries, some of which are virtually unknown in the heterosexual population. Lesbians are also at higher risk for STDs. In addition to diseases that may be transmitted during lesbian sex, a study at an Australian STD clinic found that lesbians were three to four times more likely than heterosexual women to have sex with men who were high-risk for HIV.
* Mental HealthIt is well established that there are high rates of psychiatric illnesses, including depression, drug abuse, and suicide attempts, among gays and lesbians. This is true even in the Netherlands, where gay, lesbian and bisexual (GLB) relationships are far more socially acceptable than in the U.S. Depression and drug abuse are strongly associated with risky sexual practices that lead to serious medical problems.
* Life SpanThe only epidemiological study to date on the life span of gay men concluded that gay and bisexual men lose up to 20 years of life expectancy.
* MonogamyMonogamy, meaning long-term sexual fidelity, is rare in GLB relationships, particularly among gay men. One study reported that 66 percent of gay couples reported sex outside the relationship within the first year, and nearly 90 percent if the relationship lasted five years.

What can change are White attitudes: recognizing that coloreds are undesirable community-wreckers.
"Undesirable community-wreckers"...I fuckin' LOVE IT! They have them (undesirable community-wreckers) in Kingston, NY also!

It's not me, I just reported what I heard. I simply filled the function of reporting what people trying to fuck us normal up DONT WANT KNOWN. That's my job. The credit goes to -- I don't know. I haven't talked to anyone, and have no idea who levied pressure, but I'm damn glad they did.
Now, the fags at TSU will claim the town isn't advanced enough for a poofter watering hole, but if you look at the facts above, you'll see that there's nothing progressive about letting fags swish around in public.
Not that you didn't know that already. But we are getting increasing numbers of readers at KirksvilleToday.com, and many of them are students, and I damn sure will guarantee that they aren't getting the facts about GRID and such from the leftists and jews at that jumped up teachers college.

I have been called a mother fucker at least three times, a WHITE mother fucker twice and a son of a bitch once. I have heard minority students make fun of some of our staff who suffer from mental illness or learning disabilities. I have heard students from these same groups, (some of these students are Spanish) make fun of the two men who happen to be Korean who make sushi. I have heard these students make comments such as “learn English.” I have had black students ask me why our managers hire so many students who happen to be Indian or are from the Middle East.
Yet all of these students claim they want to advise understanding and respect for all races of people. However, they curse at us and make remarks that would be unacceptable if they came from white people, moreover a staff member would be fired over such comments.
LOL! Hey Alex...you thinking what I'm thinking? Care to debate one or two of these clowns from the college on the radio (Goyfire or Free Talk Live if Geoff doesn't mind) if I can put it together?

Congratulations Alex. 61 comments posted on the "Gay Bar Opening" thread, alone. That means that many hundreds logged on. Including at least one city council member who admitted he learned about the faggot bar on kirksvillestoday.com.
Lots of Truman students logging on too, no doubt. Steer them to VNN's sites.
