So now St. Patrick's Day has to be about the Gay

[PredFan]

Meh, both those beers suck ass anyway. No loss.

how do you feel about Guinness?
Guinness brewery will not sponsor this year's NYC St. Patrick's Day Parade because the event bans gays, lesbians from marching - NY Daily News

It's better than the other two by far, but I seldom drink it. I could boycott them but again, they wouldn't notice since I probably only drink about 10 of them a year.

The real question is why does there have to be a gay float in every parade? They have a huge festival in San Fran every year. What does being gay have to do with St.Patrick's Day? Give it a rest already.

It's a damn shame we can't take our children to parades anymore because you don't know what the homosexuals are going to come out in and shove in your face...like those freaks in santa outfits..that was disgustingly vulgar for children...they should of saved it for a strip club or something

 

[Unkotare]

It is about not excluding an entire group simply because they are gay.

No it's not.

 

[Vigilante]

Go right ahead.

I have no power to form a movement, but perhaps someone that does will get that message....it's happened before, as I stated!

You might want to get with the Southern Baptists...they boycotted Disney over their gay-friendly worker's benefits package. Ask them how that worked out.

But the Chick-Fil-A didn't?....

So St. Patrick was a priest who buggered little boys! Who knew.

 

[Luddly Neddite]

No, its about equality in the United States of America.

Guinness has joined the protest.

They can march, they just can't march about their orientation. I always though the debate was about equality, this is about forcing acceptance.

Always has been.

And it's likely too late to reverse the tide.

Because too many people stood by and let it fucking happen.



peace...

No, actually, a lot of people fought for equality for ALL Americans.

And that's the way it should be.

If you don't like it, leave.

Enjoy the world you've created, Liberal-Progressives...

Enjoy watching your sons hump your sons...

And your daughters humping your daughters...

To your everlasting shame and damnation...

While America becomes a moral cesspool...

The next Sodom and Gomorrah, in some future sacred text...

Frigging idiot lowlifes... look what you've unleashed... openly legitimized homosexuality... the harbinger of the death of nations... the ultimate degeneracy... unclean, filthy abomination...

The first post I see is from Numbly, looks like her thread may have been merged with this one then.

Who was Chick-Fil-A boycotting?

 

[CaféAuLait]

Were they allowed to march or not?

Run a Google, your smart ass remarks make you look dumber than you are...maybe!

 

[Mertex]

well of course...it's all about THEM

but they ask you stay out of their lives and bedrooms

what a joke huh

Do you want people in your bedroom looking to see what you are doing?

 

[mal]

No one wants to see a bunch of flammers actiing like deviants at a parade.

Maybe if faggots could control themselves and not act like a bunch of jackasses at a parade, people wouldn't object.

Looks like that family wasn't offended. Why are you?

Wow...

This is where we are degrading to?..



peace...

I agree.

Our open legitimizing of homosexuality is, indeed, ridiculous.

 

[gallantwarrior]

Exactly. Those excluding them have already made it about gays...you'd think there were no gay Irish or gay Irish-Americans.

They can march, they just cannot march under the umbrella of a gay rights organization.

The parade is run by a private group, and as a private group has the right of expression.

Would you like to be forced to have "ex-gay" people march in in your pride parades under the group's banner?

Sure...let them. Bunches of non-gay groups march in gay pride parades...including churches like the Catholic Church and the Mormon Church.

Are they marching as openly anti-gay organizations?

?Heineken Joins Sam Adams in Boycotting St. Patrick's Day Parade

Last week, Boston Beer Company (the makers of Samuel Adams Lager) decided to pull their sponsorship from the St. Patrick's Day Parade in Boston, and it looks like Heineken is doing the same in New York for Monday's celebrations.

Both brewing companies are doing so to support LGBT community members, after parade organizers ever-so-benevolently allowed LGBT members to march in the parade, but banned them from using any and all signage about sexual orientation. A Heineken spokesperson told CNBC, "We believe in equality for all. We are no longer a sponsor of Monday's parade."...

It's a pretty genius move to take away the second most important part of St. Patrick's day to make a legitimate point. Still, it's unfortunate that people quite literally need to be forced into sobriety to understand how ludicrous the anti-LGBT sentiment really is.

I agree.... why did they have to make it ABOUT THE GAY? Do they have to make everything about THEIR gay statement???
