That’s probably who runs that company. They must be insane for doing this. First off gays don’t drink beer on the scale that straights do, second gays are only a small percentage of the population, third, all Sam Adams is doing is ensuring their sales take a huge nose dive, 4th WHAT THE F DOES THE ST. PADDYS DAYS PARADE HAVE TO DO WITH SEXUALITY??

For that matter, what does St Patricks Day have to do with anything other than the organized groups honoring him? Most individuals involved in these groups understand who he was, when he lived, what he did.

Here’s E.B. White’s 1949 view of it. It might answer your question:

It’s from a long essay titled, “Here is New York”

“I mention these merely to show that New York is peculiarly constructed to absorb almost anything that comes along (whether a thousand-foot liner out of the East or a twenty-thousand-man convention out of the West) without inflicting the event on its inhabitants; so that ever event is, in a sense, optional, and the inhabitant is in the happy position of being able to choose his spectacle and so conserve his soul. In most metropolises, small and large, the choice is often not with the individual at all. He is thrown to the Lions. The Lions are overwhelming; the event is unavoidable. A cornice falls, and it hits ever citizen on the head, every last man in town. I sometimes think the only event that hits every New Yorker on the head is the annual St. Patrick’s Day parade, which is fairly penetrating — the Irish are a hard race to tune out, and they have the police force right in the family.[…]

Well, the parade isn't, but Sam Adams is. Who remembers the "Sex for Sam" scandal - the radio program that Sam Adams sponsored where people had sex in public places for Sam Adams?

Here’s the problem. It is not the 1-3% of the population that is homosexual that Sam Adams is catering to, it is the vast majority of 18-40 y/os, many of whom are beer drinkers, that are totally all in on what they perceive as a fairness issue. Most don’t have any homosexual friends and know little about the lifestyle, but they have been indoctrinated since preschool with the tolerance/fairness issue when it comes to homosexuality. They would tell you it is horrible that the old, white, religious, intolerant men running the parade aren’t being inclusive. None of them will stop buying SA beer, and in fact some my go out of their way to buy it for their parties to show solidarity with the homosexuals being discriminated against.

Sorry to break the news to you, but this country is as dead as a two week old beached whale carcass on a hot beach. It is just slowly decaying from the inside out. The young’un have been taught well. As I believe Lenin said, “Give me your children when they are young and I will own them forever.” The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world, and that hand has been the liberal education establishment and media for at least a generation. Stick a fork in us we are done.

When you are dealing with people whose entire self-worth and sense of identity is defined by which orifice they use for copulation, it has everything to do with sexuality.

It's all they think about.
