Lauri Carleton was not a member of the LGBT+ community, but spent time advocating for the cause, it was understood.
Hollywood director Paul Feig said “intolerance” of the LGBTQ+ community “has to end” after his friend and business owner was shot and killed following a dispute over a rainbow Pride flag displayed outside her store, according to US authorities.
It is understood Ms Carleton was not a member of the LGBT+ community, but spent time advocating for the cause and was defending the Pride flags placed in front of her shop on the night of the fatal shooting. On Sunday, Bridesmaids director Feig paid tribute to his “wonderful friend” Ms Carlton, who preferred to be called “Lauri”, sharing a picture of the pair relaxing by a lake drinking wine on Instagram.
“Her alleged murderer was later shot and killed by the San Bernardino police and so no longer poses a threat to the community.“Anyone using hateful language against the LGBTQ+ community has to realise their words matter, that their words can inspire violence against innocent loving people.
