Boston straight pride parade gets approved

Boston on Wednesday approved a public event application and parade route for a Straight Pride Parade, whose organizers plan to celebrate what they view as America’s “oppressed majority” — heterosexuals.
quote:
The parade organizers — a group called Super Happy Fun America, whose slogan is “it’s great to be straight” — celebrated on Wednesday at a news conference, where they denied that their event was anti-gay or intended to mock L.G.B.T. Pride. “I agree it is unusual to have something like this, but a lot of things seem unpopular at first but then they become mainstream,” John Hugo, the president of Super Happy Fun America, said at the news conference. “We don’t hate anyone, we just want to have our own celebration just like everybody else has a right to. All people from all communities are welcome as long as they show respect.”

Imagine all the "Nazis" that will be punched in the name of civic duty.

Just a question...do they throw beads at pride parades?

God I hope Don Lemon interviews this organizer and the guy just kills him with kindness.
Don: "Do you not see how this could be offensive to those in the LGBTQ community that celebrate their pride after years of oppression in our society?"
Organizer: "Well, Don I hope they wouldn't be offended, we love everyone. We would love you guys to come celebrate with us. Are we not allowed to be proud of who we are?"
Don's head explodes from internal confliction

Should be a well attended event. I’m thinking maybe 100 guys in their union t-shirts and a keg of PBR on the Common.

Another 250 wearing grease covered coveralls & then another 350 wearing polos tucked into khakis. Should be a beautiful sight

The gays will certainly crash this party. Chaos will break out, and the evil straight men will bear the brunt of the blame.

I can pretty much guarantee this will not be the result. No one in here really seems to be paying attention to it. The national media has given it much more attention than the locals have.

So people have a right to a celebration now?

The city would likely face a lawsuit if they decided to refuse a permit based on the requesters sexual orientation.

Which is really the goal here. Paint this pig up anyway you want, but that's what it is. (You in the general sense.) In a way, its commendable them thumbing their nose at the government. But in another way, its ridiculously cringy that people get so bent out of shape over a parade. A parade. Who cares?

That’s exactly what happened. The organizers were originally denied by the city and threatened a lawsuit (which they would have won) and the city backed down.
