Repent America files lawsuit
Advertisements [?]
Repent America filed a federal civil-rights lawsuit Oct. 7 claiming that various city officials and organizers of last year’s OutFest conspired to violate Repent America’s free-speech rights, and other rights.

During the 2004, OutFest, 11 members of Repent America were arrested and charged with hate crimes and other offenses. Eventually, all charges were dropped by prosecutors, or dismissed by judges.

“OutFest was a national disgrace,” said Repent America’s Michael Marcavage said.

Marcavage said Repent America may add to the lawsuit some alleged violations that occurred at this week’s OutFest. Repent America members are seeking an unspecified amount in monetary damages.
