For retailers selling the secular holiday paraphernalia, yes. Only 4 months away.

that shirt would cause a viral video (and the ensuing outrage) if worn near Hank's dildo float during the parade.

The worst is every corporation incorporating the rainbow into their logo for a month and forcing it down everyone’s throats. It’s like the default position of every major business is to be ultra-liberal in order to avoid boycotts & bad PR.



We have Gay Pride Month at my work but no one is forcing anything down anyone's throat. I doubt anyone is particularly aware of it.

People like the OP getting bent about it is what is wrong with this country right now. Just no tolerance of other's views.

My comment was a reference to a friend and his partner who were recently harassed (for being gay) walking down the street in a mid-size Texas town


one does not need a partner to be harassed anywhere. it's happenstance that you guys are gay.

Seems unfair that gays get only one month to be proud while heterosexuals get eleven.

If you have read the thread, you are being disingenuous and are fully aware that this was a reference to the gays in my circle of friends, NOT to every gay on the planet.

Every group has its militant members, and the majority do not fall in that category.

For the most part, my gay friends are embarrassed by such behavior, just as most Republicans would be embarrassed by much of what is said on this forum by people claiming to be Republicans as well.

Why should any view be tolerated or not tolerated?

not. But they WOULD prefer not to be subjected to verbal assault just for walking down the street together.

Do you actually KNOW any gays or lesbians? I know dozens. None of them is making such a demand. They just want to be treated like anyone else.



Spoken like a true Texas A&M dudette! The campus will be jumping during "Pride" month I would bet. Be sure to watch your back though!

Maybe I should have used the word "respected"? I don't have to agree with your views but you have the right to express it.

Oh, I see how it works now.

In other words, you’re the only one who’s entitled to make generic statements and not have them construed as such. Gotcha.

Seriously, Hank...if you were any more of a tool, you’d have “Craftsman” stamped on your forehead in big red letters.

Since you are a troll and obtuse as well, the right to the opinion and to express that opinion is what should be respected.

Sorted? Good

And by contrast, you think every post should restate everything that I have already written in earlier posts on the SAME DAMNED THREAD, just to save you some reading. Gotcha.

Trust me, I think you are a complete tool as well, but not good Craftsman stuff. Cheap crap from Taiwan.
