Sam Adams will do just fine without this bar and their supporters.

Sam Adams will from this day forward be known as...
Queer Beer!

[tomkat]

Bravo Cornerstone !

What the Hell happened to this country? :(

Sam is prolly spinning 9000RPM in his grave right about now

““(Boston Beer Co. has) no problem taking the money from the people drinking at the bars along the parade route,” Flaherty Jr. said, adding he has no qualms with gay people. “We serve to everybody. I don’t have a problem with gay people, nor do my father and uncle.”

Well, I do. That’s why there are fag bars. They cater to fags and vice versa with normal, straight, hetero dive bars. Now Flaherty, I dare you to place a big sign on your bar as “gar friendly”, and watch your customer base change and let’ see you try to cope with the homo demographics.

Sam Adams swill had better hope that the Gay Sam Adams drinkers and their left wing buddies out number those who will stop drinking Sam Adams.

[Neidermeyer]

I'm getting real tired of all this ,, I'm sure gay veterans have been in the parade as long as it's been around ,,, just as straight veterans have been in it... I'm sure the promoters and sponsors just want this to be a respectful event ,, no veterans in purple speedo's and chaps with their boyfriends alongside all oiled up like a bodybuilder show... there is no reason to split the event up into various warring factions...

[Argus]

The gaybistas won’t be happy til everybody’s marching in green leather assless chaps.

[caver]

Do gays drink beer?

[cripplecreek]

The real problem is the need for sponsorships to begin with.

The sponsorships pay for a lot of permits and licensing etc. I say screw the permits and have the parade anyway.

[Mamzelle]

Is the parade really refusing to let gay veterans march, or are they refusing to allow them to wear rainbow-colored thongs and “Pride” banners…therefore turning a Catholic holiday into an orgy?

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

There is NO exclusion of homos from marching in the St. Patrick's Parade! There are no bans! None, nada, zip, zero! Homosexuals just aren't allowed to hijack the parade and make it about them and THEIR cause! Sheesh! The Boston Beer Co. has completely drunk the homos' narrative and pissed off their customers! This is what happens when you pander and cower to a fringe but powerful and vocal minority.

[Cowboy Bob]

It would be interesting to see the effects of a boycott of Sam Adams over this. If Sam Adams suffers because of this, it may cause other companies to rethink their support of homosexuals.

[bigbob]

FiRst round’s on me!

[Safetgiver]

over the organizers’ refusal to let gay veterans march ...I’m cornfused. Sam says they will not sponsor if queer veterans can’t march, correct? Organizers say it is for queer things, right? Aren’t the organizers bigoted? Or is this just journalistic malpractice or am I too drunk to understand this issue?

[Toespi]

Ok just so I understand. What is required to walk in this parade? Can anyone walk in it or does one need proof they are Irish? Obviously they don’t want to celebrate the event or they would just put on something green and fricking walk like a normal person in a parade. They want another public forum to shove their sexuality down people’s throat.

[Busko]

Sam Adams is rolling in his grave. The brewery that is using his name are garbage.

[Albion Wilde]

May the wind be ever at your back, and may Sam Adams Beer go the way of J.C. Penney — sales went straight downhill after they took sides in the gay behavior debate, and now are having to close store locations.
