Stonewall was caused by NYPD, soo… it might feel weird to have police at Pride now?
Oh damn, I had no Idea.
Stonewall was a mafia bar that paid off the cops to leave their largely LGBTQ clients alone. The cops decided to ignore the agreement and harass the LGBTQ people there, and it turned into days of violence.
