I remember these parades being the one of the highlights of my kids’ elementary school year.

What will they cancel next?

If all the little children were dressed like drag queens, it might be approved.

Well truth be told, Halloween is a very busy time for Drag Queens so the school mostly likely waited too long to book them.......

The parents wouldn’t allow gay pride themed costumers?

I’m guessing one person complained so now everyone must change.

If some of these parents are Democrats, this should wake them up and vote Republican.

“If all the little children were dressed like drag queens”

Don’t give them any ideas.

Best comment at Breitbart: “I see that Lower Merion Schools have canceled Halloween parades for concerns over ‘inclusivity’ as some students don’t celebrate Halloween. Can we apply that logic to Pride festival stuff?”

Democrats sure hate joy.

Maybe that’s why they kill babies.

What we need is a ban on transvestites in all public places, government buildings and schools, you know, some common sense trans laws.

But dozens of parents can complain about drag queens in the schools and will be ignored or even banned from the school grounds.

Yes exactly.

Don’t wait on these turds......do grassroots events that bypass this bs attempt at controlling every little thing.

I’m not understanding what is meant by a “safety” and/or “inclusivity” issue?

There was a huge Cinco De Mayo celebration at my kids’ school every single year. How does that include non-Mexican children in schools that should be celebrating all things American?

You can be sure Mexican Independence Day, Kwaanza and Cinco De Mayo parades and parties won’t be canceled.
