Diversity Float:
Do the rest of the organizations who march have 'rules' about statements as well? Or is this just upset that one can't participate how they want to participate?

The float with the rainbow cannon fire finally took the turn onto Broadway and lumbered slowly as it joined the St. Patricks Day parade in South Boston. The contingent included roughly 30 marchers, most of whom were gay men.
A crowd lined both sides of the parade route, cramming the sidewalk. As the float inched slowly up Broadway, people looked up. They began to cheer loudly.
The marchers pulled out their secret weapon they had brought nearly 500 pounds of plastic bead necklaces. People stood three deep at metal police barricades and held their hands above their heads, jumping up and down as they screamed for beads. The marchers obliged and tossed green and rainbow-colored necklaces into the crowd.
