Johannesburg bids to host 2010 "gay Olympics"
afrol News ^

Posted on 01/12/2006 9:58:59 AM PST by chunk2005

Johannesburg is one of three cities worldwide to bid for the hosting of the 2010 Gay Games, the special "Olympics" for gays and lesbians. A special Bid Committee has been established in the city, with the support of South Africa's government. The other bidders are Cologne and Paris.

According to a statement released by the San Francisco-based Federation of Gay Games, groups in Cologne, Johannesburg and Paris have submitted letters of intent to bid for the eighth Gay Games in 2010. The site selection process is to culminate with selection of the host in November this year, the Federation says.

The Gay Games is the largest ongoing event on the international sports calendar for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community. More than ten thousand participants are taking part in approximately 30 sports, band and choral events every four years.

These stupid "games" (see sodomy parties) will be in Chicago and my suburb of Oak Park, IL. These people are sickening. Our local school won't let the Boy Scouts have meetings there because they "discriminate" against gays, but it will allow these sick people to have their gay fest.

These people all yell about Equality, but then seek to distance themselves with things like this.
