CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Downtown Charlotte is expected to host thousands for a gay pride festival a week before the country's Democrats come to town.
...
Thousands of people annually attend the festival, which also draws dozens of protesters.
This year's festival comes after voters decided to add a prohibition against gay marriage to the state constitution, effectively slamming the door shut on same-sex marriages. The Democratic National Convention opens in Charlotte next week to officially nominate President Barack Obama as the party's presidential candidate this year.

Addendum: After NC passed Amendment One banning gay marriage this past May, it is ironic that the DNC will be held there and the gays out in full force:
“LGBT Pride Festival Could Be Biggest Ever In Charlotte “
“Charlotte’s annual gay and transgender pride festival is this weekend. Organizers expect the event to draw about 10,000 more people than last year’s. They say the passage of Amendment One and the Democratic National Convention are helping to draw people in.
The Pride Charlotte Festival will run all weekend and include concerts, art, street vendors, political booths and a kids’ area. Co-chair Dave Webb said it’s grown into a huge event.”

Yuck! Keep the children inside...at home.
“The Pride Charlotte Festival will run all weekend and include...a kid’s area.”
O...M...G...!
Homosexuals, communists, atheists, and illegals...ladies and gentlemen-your democrat party.
Same thing.
But hey, there is no "gay agenda", correct?
The libs are the gift that keeps on giving. What better thing to happen than to show the country what the liberal party is all about. Sodomy, perversion, lesbianism, and transexuals.
I hope they have enough bathrooms!
Imagine the mental contortions it takes to be “proud” of committing sodomy and the other perversions homos commit. Gross.
Dem convention focusing on gay marriage and full-term abortion. Winning issues.
Likely, yep, exaggeration. But it is an irony that North Carolina which passed Amendment 1 by a wide margin now must play host to the DNC and their gay allies. Ugh...
They seem oblivious to how bad this makes them look.
Activities include a “poker” tournament.....
You just CAN’T make this stuff up!
Uhhh I very seriously doubt that. This "movement" is NOT popular in NC.
It should be a crime for Northern Liberals to infiltrate a once proud, God loving Southern state like NC.
They have ruined the beautiful mountain town of Asheville with faggy art shops and second hand clothing stores. Yuck!
Is “queerfest” before or after the massive celebration of women’s health procedures, aka “abortionfest”
This should be an interesting mix... the sodomites and the muslims attending the DNC. U Cant Make This Up!
.
Yep - that’s the look of the DNC. ;-)
Yuck! Keep the children inside...at home.Buttless leather chaps available for loan to all participants.
