quote:

Brandishing rainbow flags and signs that read "Queer Love" and "Trans Power," scores of activists marched Wednesday night toward Vice President-elect Mike Pence's rental home in Northwest Washington, D.C.

Days before Donald Trump's administration is expected to take over the White House, activists planned what they described as the "Queer Dance Party at Mike Pence's House." They met around 6 p.m. ET outside the Friendship Heights Metro Station, where video footage showed them chanting slogans and holding LGBT pride flags as they made their way to the neighborhood where Pence and his wife, Karen, moved after the November election.


quote:

"We come in all shapes, sizes, colors, beliefs, and we need to respect our diversity," Pratt said. "The LGBT community has had a real struggle to be respected and be accepted, and that’s a sad statement on our country and our culture that they’ve had that struggle."


quote:

When word spread that Pence rented a home near them during the transition, neighbors welcomed the vice president-elect with a series of rainbow flags. Pratt came up with the idea and was surprised to see it catch on. She's counted more than 300 rainbow flags in the neighborhood since.


No word yet on whether they're planning similar LGBTQ dance parties in front of the embassies of Turkey, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Oman, and other Muslim countries.

BUT, the best part of the entire charade:

quote:

Pence wasn't home at the time of the dance party. He and his wife joined Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker for dinner out.

It would be cool if they did some hot girl-girl action in front of the home of the lipstick lesbian variety.

If these cock suckers were actually concerned with LGBTQ issues, that's where they'd be focusing their attention.

True.

They don't care about any "issues". They just hate Republicans. Toddy is a prime example.

It isn't a belief. It is a fact supportable by evidence.

It would have been so awesome if he was home and simply just went outside and danced with them. But then again it wouldn't have made the news if that had happened

What is amazing about all of this is 1) Pence has no power....he just breaks ties in the Senate. 2) Trump has never disparaged homosexuals at all during his campaign, has said nothing about same sex marriage and even kind of told the North Carolina Republicans that the whole bathroom deal was much ado about virtually nothing.

I don't get why blacks are all that upset with Trump. His policies are very much in keeping with trying to help them by trying to limit illegal immigration. The illegal immigrants are undercutting African Americans for jobs.

Well when you

you kind of make it hard for someone to accept you as "normal". You want to be normal? Act like a normal adult.
