The same Disney that suspended 'Duck Dynasty' star Phil Robertson from its A&E network for expressing his religious views about homosexuality (until being forced to reverse it after a massive viewer revolt), clearly has no problem pushing the homosexual agenda in the faces of millions of Americans who watch the annual Tournament of Roses Parade on its ABC network on New Year's Day.
That's right. Two Los Angeles men plan to celebrate their "gay marriage" on a float in this year's parade in Pasadena, California. The move has understandably sparked controversy and even a boycott.
Danny Leclair, 45, and Aubrey Loots, 42, will marry “atop a giant wedding cake-shaped float” sponsored by the AIDS Healthcare Foundation, according to the Pasadena Star-News.
“Love comes in many forms and should be honored and should be celebrated,” Leclair told the Star-News, echoing the float’s theme, “Love is the Best Protection.”
But San Diego resident Karen Grube told the Star-News that the Tournament of Roses shouldn’t be involved in an outside group’s “political agenda.”
“Gay marriage is illegal in over 30 states. Why would they promote something that is blatantly illegal?” Grube said. “That’s just stupid.”
She has launched a Facebook page, “Boycott the 2014 Rose Parade,”telling people to contact parade organizers and sponsors to ask that the float be removed.
“It used to be a family thing, to get up on New Year’s Day morning and watch the parade,” Grube said. “It no longer is.”
Disney's promotion of the homosexual agenda at the Rose parade follows the ABC Network leading off this year's Thanksgiving Day Parade with a drag queen dancing performance -- outraging millions of American parents.
Rose Parade officials issued a statement to the Star-News saying:

If you think thats bad, you dont want to see most of ATL...
I will not watch it.
I think Duck (Dynasty) duck quacks along the parade route could be fun. Or standing and turning your back as the float goes by.
626.449.4100 is the phone number for the Tournament of Roses, by the way. Open 8-6.

The parade and the football game are off my tv this year. The sodomites can celebrate their new found freedom on some other tv. Ta ta
Hopefully a few empty bottles fly their way
Rotten eggs (plenty of them) would be a better solution.

Thanks montag813.
Grand Marshall Roman Polansky.
They lost this viewer.
Vinegar in a squirt gun... That’s the best way to take care of crows here in Japan.. :p
For the first time in about 65 years the parade will not be on the tv in our home. It will remain that way until an apology from the parade organizers/officials is aired/published, and a guarantee we will NOT ever be subjected to such a disgusting display again.
The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade was bad enough.
“As the popular culture degrades, public demonstrations have to become more and more outrageous to ensure that there is an audience.”
Or not; I won’t be watching.
“Love comes in many forms”
OK. Let’s see a float with a penis going in and out of a man’s anus. Face it, that’s what makes a homosexual a homosexual.
The "law of the land" would harshly punish the Rose Bowl organization and Disney if they said, "Heck no, we're not going to let a homosexual couple marry in the parade! Make it a heterosexual couple and we're okay, but let these gay folks find another parade to host their 'wedding.'"
THE LAW OF THE LAND prohibits the Rose Bowl, Disney, and any other institution, organization, or business from doing that.
We don't need, and have never needed, laws to prohibit gay marriage. What we NEED are laws protecting the rights of people to peacefully discriminate against open homosexuality if they so choose. With that protection, open in-your-face homosexuality is pushed away into its own corner and out of the mainstream, which is better for everybody.
The way the laws are now, Americans are punished for peacefully, civilly, and rightly discriminating against -- or boycotting -- all demonstrations of open homosexuality.
The guy on the right looks ill to me.
I won’t be watching it.
Liberals really hate it when you bring up the stark reality of what they support.
I would not celebrate romantic "love" between a married man and a woman other than his wife. I would not celebrate romantic "love" between a man and his mother/sister/daughter. I would not celebrate romantic "love" between a man and a domestic animal. I would not celebrate romantic "love" between two men. No, "love" should not always be celebrated. I will not watch the parade this year, or probably ever again.
"I love my doggie. Can I have a float too ?"
This is disgusting. For sure I will NOT be watching the "Tournament of Faggots Parade".
