Well that answers a question I've been considering recently - is it worth the high cost of membership to join the Y. A big fat no way.

Well, at least these folks were dancing.

I'd hate for the kids to go swimming in the pool and come across a "clump of 'DNA"

"It was like they didn't want the kids to see the gay people at all," said Kashma Avery

That's the idea, mensa.

I think this is a wonderful story.

Why?

Usually the parents would have bundled their chidlren off and made phone calls...but it would have been undercover for fears of reprisal

These parents SPOKE UP. LOUDLY! and NEARLY CAUSED A MELEE!

We are finding our voice and our voice is to tolerate this behavior at the margins of our culture and not to have it in the middle of our lives.

I have several issues with this.

1. When did the YMCA change from Young Men's CHRISTIAN Association to Young Men Crossdressing A-holes?

2. Why is the YMCA scheduling a swim meet on Sunday, when these kids should be in church?

3. What are these parents doing taking the kids to a swim meet instead of church on Sunday morning?

4. Why is the report not including more details about what went on at the "fashion show"? (I can answer that....LIBERALS HIDING THE TRUTH!

5. Is there any way for the Christians to take back the YMCA from these MORONS?

As parents and other YMCA members began to complain about the event, New City staff reportedly closed off access to bathrooms and locker rooms, barring the "House of Escada" participants

At least the staff showed some belated sense.

Can you imagine the House of Escada gays "mixing" with all the little kids in those places? It would be a parent's worst nightmare!

What's the fuss?

Isn't Chicago one of those tolerant BLUE cities in a blue state?

"It was like they didn't want the kids to see the gay people at all," said Kashma Avery, in a recorded interview provided by WBBM-AM (780). Avery was in charge of a 13-member security detail for the ball, which he said was attended by about 400 people, most of them gay men.

Nah, ya think? Unbelievable.

11 p.m. Saturday through 8 a.m. Sunday for a fashion show and ball, which featured cross-dressing and transgender models in a competition

Like vampires ... they only come out at night? The only all night event I ever attended was a Jewish wedding.

Of course they didn't! According to the third law of homosexuality:

Any exposure of children to homosexual behavior is child abuse

As parents and other YMCA members began to complain about the event, New City staff reportedly closed off access to bathrooms and locker rooms, barring the "House of Escada" participants from continuing to use the facility. At that point, party guests and parents began confronting each other in the building's hallways and lobby.

Nothing to worry about sharing a locker room with homosexuals. They AREN'T interested in looking at heterosexuals... Your children are SAFE < /sarcasm >

CELEBRATE PERVESITY

Probably the first thing you got straight all year, Kashma.

How about just saying it was a fashion show for ugly girls and quietly moving the kids away.

Why is the an organization with the word YOUNG having such an event anyways?

The definition of Conflicted is when a DemocRat is worried that a future Homosexual may be aborted.

Transgendered = mutilated & mentally ill.
Pray for them; they need it!

Praise the Lord for this update from APmyway...

Greg Weider, who had been acting director of the New City YMCA for two years, was fired Wednesday. Programming manager Michael Horton, who oversaw scheduling at the center, resigned two days earlier.

"We've taken very swift, decisive action, and we will do everything we can in order to restore the integrity of our organization for those that we serve," said Steven Dahlin, executive vice president and chief operating officer of the YMCA of Metropolitan Chicago.
