I have always enjoyed creative freedom at FR.

Everybody should go into the bar, order Sam Adams, and when told they don’t have it...leave.
Yeah, well I do work blue from time to time
They want another public forum to shove their sexuality down people’s throat....Or something else.
or as the piece of doggerel Howie Carr has quoted, Did you hear about Foley, the Irish queer? Reached for a woman instead of a beer.
Sam Adams is going to pull a Cracker Barrel!
“Everybody should go into the bar, order Sam Adams, and when told they don’t have it...leave.”
So you support the queer addenda? Sam Adams does.
They don’t want to support veterans like my father and uncle,..He had a queer father AND A QUEER UNCLE? How the Hell does that family continue?
The Left was allowed to take over the media and the educational system. That was all they needed. They controlled the message. They pick the groups that are "oppressed". They beat you over the head with it. Your children are stuck in classrooms with lefty teachers and corrupted textbooks and they learn the lessons the left wants to teach.
For that matter, what does St Patricks Day have to do with anything other than the organized groups honoring him? Most individuals involved in these groups understand who he was, when he lived, what he did.
Here’s E.B. White’s 1949 view of it. It might answer your question:
It’s from a long essay titled, “Here is New York”
“I mention these merely to show that New York is peculiarly constructed to absorb almost anything that comes along (whether a thousand-foot liner out of the East or a twenty-thousand-man convention out of the West) without inflicting the event on its inhabitants; so that ever event is, in a sense, optional, and the inhabitant is in the happy position of being able to choose his spectacle and so conserve his soul. In most metropolises, small and large, the choice is often not with the individual at all. He is thrown to the Lions. The Lions are overwhelming; the event is unavoidable. A cornice falls, and it hits ever citizen on the head, every last man in town. I sometimes think the only event that hits every New Yorker on the head is the annual St. Patrick’s Day parade, which is fairly penetrating — the Irish are a hard race to tune out, and they have the police force right in the family.[…]
I’ve had mt last Sam Adams swill.
*agenda
Exactly spot on.
Well, the parade isn't, but Sam Adams is. Who remembers the "Sex for Sam" scandal - the radio program that Sam Adams sponsored where people had sex in public places for Sam Adams?
A what if situation:
Westboro Baptist: We want to march in your Boston Gay Pride Parade
Parade organizer: We don’t want you in and there’s a 1997 Supreme Court decision that says we can’t.
Westboro Baptist: Outrageous! We’ll sue!
Parade organizer: You won’t have a case. Tell you what, you can march provided you don’t have any banners or signs.
Westboro Baptist: Really? Well in that case never mind.
We only march when we have banners and signs with us.

Sound familiar? It’s what happened with Mass Equality and this parade. And maybe in an above situation a bar can say,
“We will stop selling (XXX) beer because they pulled their support from the gay pride parade after the organizers wouldn’t allow WBC in.” And note WBC’s real purpose: a political message. If they’re told you can march just no banners or signs, it’s... “never mind”...
