COURT WINS EXPECTED TO BOLSTER GAY PRIDE EVENTS
AP ^ | 6/30/2013

Posted on 06/30/2013 8:12:33 AM PDT by markomalley

Cities across the nation were gearing up Sunday for what were expected to be especially well-attended and exuberant gay pride parades following the U.S. Supreme Court decisions restoring same-sex marriages to California and granting gay couples the federal benefits of marriage they were previously denied.

The gay pride celebrations scheduled in San Francisco, New York, Chicago, Minneapolis-St. Paul, Seattle and St. Louis are annual, and in most cases decades-old events whose tones and themes have mirrored the gay rights movement's greatest victories and defeats. This year's parades, coming on the heels of the high court's historic decisions, should be no exception.

In San Francisco, the four plaintiffs in the case that led to the end of California's gay marriage ban will be riding in a contingent organized by the city attorney. Newlyweds Kris Perry and Sandy Stier of Berkeley, and Paul Katami and Jeff Zarrillo of Burbank, were able to marry Friday after a federal appeals court lifted a hold it had put on same-sex marriages while the couples' lawsuit challenging the ban worked its way toward and then through the Supreme Court. City officials decided to keep the clerk's office open throughout the weekend so couples who were in town for the celebration could get married.

At this point in time, I actually HOPE they pull out all the stops.

I hope they hold "Gay Pride" events in all major and minor cities in the US. I hope that they are totally uninhibited...so uninhibited as to make the Folsom Street Fair seem positively Victorian. I hope to see men sodomizing each other in Peoria, Wichita, and Jackson (all of them).

Why? Because I want all these low information people who have fallen for the propaganda to see what they've actually been supporting.

By the act of the Executive Branch, the Judicial Branch, and half of the Legislative Branch...coupled with the fear and trepidation of the other half of the Legislative Branch, we now all officially live in Sodom, whether or not we support it.

(And may God preserve us as He preserved Lot before he rains fire down upon the city)

Hooray for the gays.

I wonder how many parades there will be once Sharia Law takes effect.

Oops. Did I say that in my out loud voice?

Watch Lady Gaga Update National Anthem at a Gay Pride Rally

Lady Gaga sang a spirited rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner” at the New York City Gay Pride Parade’s Kickoff Rally on Friday night. The performance took on some additional weight coming in the wake of this week’s Supreme Court rulings favorable to gay rights. Gaga, who had been out of the public eye as she recovered from a hip injury, also changed some of the lyrics to the National Anthem in her performance, as she hoisted a rainbow-striped gay pride flag. In her version, she replaces the words “star-spangled banner” with “star-spangled flag of pride” and seems to substitute the lyrics “home for the gay” for the famous phrase “home of the brave.”

Unfortunately, the news media can be counted upon to report on public debauchery among homosexuals to the same extent they report on Obama Administration scandals: hardly at all.

Exactly. That's why I said what I said.

I had to drive down Broadway on Capital Hill in Seattle last night. Broadway Ave. is basically Folsom St. for Seattle. What a disgusing display.....

The strange thing (or maybe not so strange) is that Islam permits every kind of perversity, at least for men: buggery, pedophilia, bestiality, etc. It doesn’t officially condone things like “gay relationships,” but in some Islamic areas, a boy’s first sexual experience is when he is raped by his father, at about the age of 13.

So I think the gays could learn to live with Islam. Plus they’ll be sick of “marrying” each other anyway within the next couple of years. The whole point was to destroy Judeo-Christian/Greco-Roman morality and references by redefining the language, and now that they’ve done that, they’ll be happy to move on. And the Muslims will be happy to enjoy them.

Very interesting. I didn't know that.

That kind of puts Iranian leader Achmadinejad's boast a few years ago that there are no homosexuals in Iran in a different light.

For just 3 to 4% of the population, gays are certainly getting a lot of press. Have you listened to PBS radio lately? It’s all gay, all day.

How does anything “bolster” a gay shame parade?

Why do homosexuals parade and demonstrate beyond a shadow of a doubt every negative stereotype that exists.

By comparison It’s like a bunch of black people parading down the street as cannibals from Africa with bones in their noses and huge protrusions pushing out their lips, waiving EBT cards, with floats of Negroes eating watermelon, black rappers saying the n-word and calling everyone woman and ho and slut, with their pants around their knees, exposes their asses and genitalia, followed by one of Negroes eating fried chicken, then by a bunch of young black males killing one another (live!), with another float showing a bunch of unwed black mothers, finally one a shanty house filled with a single woman and 100 children under the age of 12.

That’s what a gay shame parade is like.

The networks would be fighting to hire Rachel Jeantel as their chief color commentator for these parades.

Also News9 in Tampa this morning, a Black lesbian activist gloating over the Supreme Court's decision. This "home girl" better be careful what she wishes for though. Her lesbo-ness will get more grief from her "peeps" in the hood than anywhere else. After a few seconds I switched the channel and watched 1000 Ways to Die.

[[The media is OBSESSED with this issue. Its bizarre.]]

It’s not really bizarre- the man of lawlessness spoken of in the bible is clearly beign let loose- right becoems wrong, wrong becomes law, evil is valued while morality will be banned (in NJ they are tryign to pass a law BANNING parents fro mseekign ‘restorative therapy’ for a child that thinks they are gay- all across thsi couitnry parents are NOT allowed to know that their child got pregnant thansk to easy access to over the ocunter murder pills- chikldren as young as 8-10 years old or so are beign taught filthy vile sexually perverted acts i ntheir ‘sex ed’ classes- acts that are so vile they can’t even be mentioned here- kids across the nation are beign taught to worship and or dress as muslims - Boston brought a whole class to a mosque and had them pray to allah- on and on it goes-)

We are rapidly sinking nto the sewer and the left are gleefully runnign towards it with open arms declarign they are now ‘free’- they sit and celebreate everytiem morality takes a hit, slapping each other o nthe back knowign that very soon they will have unlimmitted control over the moral majority in this nation

governors l ike kkkuomo are abusign hteir powers by rammign htrough oen bill after another WITHOUT a vote clainming there was an ‘emergy need to act without a vote”, our own dear leader rammign htrough natio ndestroying measures/laws claimign executive privilege to do so

This nation is crumblign right beofre your eyes, and it will RAPIDLY excellerate in the coming months, but be not afraid, for these thigns must coem to pass so that the Son of God may be revealed

I was quite surprised the other day when one of the local TV stations - all of which are pro-homosexual, given the 70% population which is deviant in Palm Springs - actually showed a clip of a couple of drag queens prancing and dancing in the streets there, complete with their feathery boas.
