Gay Pride Marchers With Jewish Flags Told To Leave Chicago Parade

Jewish people celebrating LGBT Pride in Chicago were told not to display Star of David flags because other people found them “offensive.”

The Jewish Star of David flag was banned from the city’s annual Dyke March celebrations, and several people carrying the flag were removed form the march because their presence “made people feel unsafe,” LGBT paper Windy City Times reported.

The Dyke March is described by organizers as being a “more inclusive, more social justice-oriented” march than the city’s main Pride parade.

One marcher, Laurel Grauer, said she was harassed by other Dyke March attendees before being told she needed to leave with her flag. “It was a flag from my congregation which celebrates my queer, Jewish identity which I have done for over a decade marching in the Dyke March with the same flag,” she told Windy City Times. “They were telling me to leave because my flag was a trigger to people that they found offensive,” she added. “Prior to this [march] I had never been harassed or asked to leave and I had always carried the flag with me.” …

These are interesting times Chode.

The left is trying so hard not to eat each other alive.

Trump with his tweets is sending them right over the edge of sanity. His tweets about Warren are great.

I enjoy every minute of it.

“Moonbeamcare”
“Anklebiter pride”
“Constitution(s)/The Senate”

The Left wants to return to year zero, while keeping everything The Right built that sustains them. It doesn’t work that way, sh*tlibs.

In other news: Jon Garland is thinking about making a comeback.

shouldn’t it say something about a group of people who become ‘triggered’ whenever a Godly Symbol is displayed? That right there should tell you the group of people are driven by evil?

And that right there is the post of the day, folks. Simple, clean, well stated and it's the TRUTH!

From Roosh. I think this sums it up nicely:

“I currently live in a 90%+ white country. I follow their laws and do not try to change their culture. It is rather peaceful and pleasant to live in. Now I know what my parents probably felt when they came to the USA in the early 1970’s.”

Hmmm.

1) I imagine quite a few orthodox Jews would find a Star of David over a rainbow flag "offensive" too, given that "gay rights" completely contradicts old testament laws.

2) I have little doubt the purged homo Jews will go right back to loyally voting for the "End Zionism and Islamophobia" Jew-hating RAT party. At this point, I'm convinced they suffer from Stockholm syndrome. The next Dem candidate for President could pledge to wipe Israel off the map, and Steven Spielberg would write him a $50,000 check afterwards.

Homo solidarity with those who would throw the homos off of buildings, and stone the lesbos.

Skewed priorities to say the least.

"...more social justice-oriented”

Is this what they mean? (Social Justice Warriorism as the New Communism). Good lord, even parades are segregated...what has happened to the 'other person's' Civil Rights?

Of course homos are in solidarity with Islam, they know they are all closet homos.

Stupid leftist Jews.

I guess "Jewish" is the new Confederate. (But don't tell Dr. Michael Hill!)

Liberal identity politics will tear apart the base of the democrat party....

We wish. Unfortunately, moslems and Black and Hispanic chrstians seem to be getting along swimmingly with the "gays."
