Randy Wicker, who had marched in the first gay picket lines before the White House in 1965, said the "screaming queens forming chorus lines and kicking went against everything that I wanted people to think about homosexuals... that we were a bunch of drag queens in the Village acting disorderly and tacky and cheap."
Randy Wicker, que participara nos piquetes diante da Casa Branca en 1965, dixo que "as raíñas berronas, creando refráns e pateando, ían en contra de todo o que eu quería que a xente pensase sobre os homosexuais... que somos un puñado de drag queens no Village, actuando de xeito desordenado, chabacano e de mal gusto".
