Silly. Just like the dumbocrats told the lame stream, Trump wants to get rid of all gay folks. Uh, well maybe that’s not true but a lot of folks believe it to be. Fidiots!

Rather than boycott DC bars, one would think the gays would rally behind the businesses in their community in a show of support.

I guess VH didn’t like it, because now they removed “Beautiful Girls”, and replaced it with some generic background music.

Or it means a lot of government queers don’t want to have their pictures in the news when they are taken by by photographers following ICE.

Does this mean that a lot of the gays are illegal aliens?

Since this article refers to the presence of National Guard to stop the rampant crime in DC, I would bet that this means (assuming there's any truth to it at all) that all of the faggots who run our country these days, whether in Congress or the bureaucracy, are now too scared to go to these places for their usual satanic debauchery, lest they get caught and their shame made public.

Hmm...🧐🤔

There may be something to this!

“Closet Decor” stores in the D.C. area have been experiencing a noticeable uptick in business.

I wonder if their income tax forms reflect that kind of money? Thousands every day?

Gays are the ones who probably need the protection the most around the Convention Center and Dupont Circle! Doesn’t make sense unless the bars’ and clubs’ customers are criminals…
