About 100 people marched through downtown Ferndale on Sunday morning in a Straight Pride Parade, billed as a celebration of the heterosexual lifestyle.

I'm as hip for heterosexuality as the next guy, and I don't appreciate the homosexual "lifestyle," nor the homosexual movement in this country.

That said, I'm really kinda tired of the tendency many conservatives have of immitating our adversaries. Everywhere you look you see simple REACTION to the outrageous stuff the Left and its camp followers do, like having a "Miss WHITE America," or "White History Month," or now "Straight Pride."

To me, it dignifies the UNdignified dumb stuff THEY do, and you end up just equating yourself with THEM, just like you're simply the flip side of the same coin. That's NUTS.

What we need to do is go on with our NORMAL lives, and let our good works speak for themselves.

That's not to say we shouldn't protest wickedness when it comes into view, but we ought to do it in a dignified, appropriate manner, not by simply aping every knot-headed thing that THEY do.

,,, just looking at your post #9. Obviously, this straight parade has broken some hearts. They assume that flaunting themselves down a street that's been shut off specifically for their antics even gives them sacred "ownership" of such a street. Mocking them clearly deflates their hollow "in ya face" manufactured pride.

I've enjoyed heterosexual life so much, for so long that I've kept quiet about it, as decent people tend to do. Next time I'm anywhere near a straight parade, WATCH OUT!!!! - I'm going to out myself.

Probably why no pictures were posted, because they all showed up wearing their ‘I’m with stupid’ sweat shirts.
