I'd pay to watch a 'drunk pride parade'.

That would indeed be something to see.

I'd pay to watch a “drunk pride” parade. Someone who is ethnically insensitive may just let you know where you can see some, free. And soon. But I'm not goin’ there.

Absolutely not. I thought it had some possibilities for some humor.

That’s a good point. His request is based on something that cannot be tested for though. What is to keep every other person facing deportation from claiming that they are gay? If it’s got a precedent. People who escape places like Iran should be found homes elsewhere agreed. ‘I’m gay so you have to give me asylum’ seems a bit off point.

Actually, his request was more like "If you send me home, they're gonna execute me for being gay." So my original point stands: The concept of asylum was developed to rescue people from places where the thought police have that kind of power. The fact that he's claiming to be gay should be irrelevant.

Listen, if you jokers really want to see a “drunk pride” parade, I can guarantee you that there’s one scheduled for 7:00 tomorrow night in one of your town’s church basements.

(and no, I’m not offended either)

I would say that he has good reason to be afraid.
