Man charged in threat to kill gays at St. Louis Pride paradeA suburban St. Louis man accused of telling organizers of the city’s Pride parade that he would shoot and kill as many gays as possible at the LGBTQ celebration before turning the gun on himself has been charged with making a terrorist threat, according to court documents. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported that Edward Terry, 49, of Overland, was charged Tuesday. Marty Zuniga, vice president of PrideFest, said the organization works “hard to produce an event that is safe for all participants.” The Pride parade in downtown St. Louis draws hundreds of thousands of people every year and is scheduled to take place June 30.
