Gay Day at Six Flags Over Texas September 18th , 2004

Gay Day at Six Flags Over Texas September 18th , 2004

September 18 is the 9th Annual Gay Day at Six Flags Over Texas. This event has taken place for the last 8 years in a row and this is the 9th year. This event is sponsored by a homosexual newspaper called The Dallas Voice and advertised as "Gay Day at Six Flags," in established homosexual publications like Texas Triangle, QTexas and many highly trafficked websites. Due directly to this form of advertising, thousands of homosexuals attend this event from all over Texas. "Gay Day at Six Flags" takes place one day prior to the Gay Pride Parade in Oak Lawn which itself brings in tens of thousands of people. Many of the people in town for the Gay Pride Parade also attend "Gay Day at Six Flags."

When families attend Six Flags Over Texas on Saturday, September 18th, they will not be informed about "Gay Day at Six Flags," nor the thousands of homosexuals in attendance. It will be a total shock when they realize they are waiting in line for one hour at a time with flamboyant homosexuals embracing one another and kissing.

If you call Six Flags Over Texas and ask them if they are having Gay Day they will tell you "No, Six Flags does not sponsor a Gay Day," knowing that they allow the homosexual community to advertise the event as "Gay Day at Six Flags." They still will not tell you. Therefore, Six Flags Over Texas is willingly allowing families and children to be exposed to homosexual activities without giving them any warning.

Families and children have the right and deserve to know about "Gay Day at Six Flags" so that they can make an informed decision as to rather they want to attend Six Flags Over Texas on that day. Six Flags Over Texas has a responsibility to inform families and children about "Gay Day at Six Flags." It is a family park and families sustain Six Flags business throughout the year.

Huh? Please explain. What's wrong with wearing a red shirt?

The official sodomite uniform at this Disney gay days is a red shirt. If you wear one you will be propositioned even more than if you don't

If 'The Hillary Rodham-Clinton fan club' wanted to use your resturant, hotel, theme-park, zoo or city park as a meeting grounds; you are prohibited by law from preventing them to do so.

No you are not. You can close your business any time you choose to without explaining to anyone why you chose to close.

Many hotels close for black spring break rather than rent rooms to the thugs who inevitably act out on that week.

Since this event is timed to coincide with another larger event it would be simple to close the park for maintenance until the perverts leave. One weekend lost revenue versus permanently lost reputation.

I'll not attend another six flags park again. They've proven to be just as perverted and family hostile as disney. They don't deserve my dollars

Gay people travel to Disney...Six Flags...Ballgames and everywhere else in between.

Who cares...

Obviously some people still are scared of their own shadow.

Get over it...

Shall we explain it before or after stepping past a couple of men smoking each other off?

Is this actual, or just wishful thinking on your part? Florida, Texas and pretty much every state in the USA have laws on the books prohibiting this. Have you been to a 'Gay Day'? No insult intended, as I have not, but maybe you have. From the posts I have read at the various Disney sites, those who have accidentally planned their family vacations during these 'Gay Days' have stated that unless they knew it was Gay day, they wouldn't have known it.

If it's two heterosexuals having sex, or two gay people having sex in public; you can bet that Disney security will be there to stop it, and press charges. Disney invests millions of dollars to promote a family friendly atmosphere, and they are not going to tolerate a gay orgy in the park.

Ok, let's be intellectually honest. First, the park plans on a daily attendance of up to ~250,000 guests. Do you have any idea how much money it takes to maintain a staff of 30,000 cast members? Let's assume the park is 100% paid for, and maintence, utilities, insurance and general upkeep costs are zero. We are talking about over $2.7 Million/day in payroll alone (30,000 employees, 10 hrs of park operation, average pay of $9/hr; assuming NO benefits, vacation, sick or holiday pay).

Now, supposing Disney does close the park on a 'Gay Day' .... the group will simply re-schedule. So, what have you accomplished? By closing, you have alienated 90+% of your target demographic; ruined a good share of family vacations that have been planned for months, if not years. You have lost Millions in revenue, and unless you want to bankrupt yourself, you will eventually miss a 'scheduled' Gay Day. Either way, you can't stop them.

What about business establishments that have a sign saying, "We reserve the right to refuse service to ..."? Is that legal or illegal?

This depends. For example, refusing to serve alcohol to an obviously drunk person is required by law. Refusing to serve a person with no shirt, and no shoes is considered status quo due to health concerns.

However, if you refuse to serve based upon race, sex, religion, sexual orientation, ancestry and a whole mess of other criteria; you are discriminating and will be held accountable.

I wish I were as naive as you....but I'm NOT...

There really is UN-family-like sh*t going on at Disney and elsewhere -- despite "laws on the books prohibiting" such behavior.

Do yourself a favor -- stare into a full length mirror, click your shoes three times, and repeat after me: "We're not in Kansas anymore, Toto."

If you say so, it must be true. I can never believe my lying eyes. I have been to WDW for 8 seperate week long vacations in the past 10 years. I have never witnessed anything remotely like you are describing.

I presently have season passes for Six Flags, and again, I have never witnessed anything remotely PG rated. I have multi-year season passes at Sea World; and again ... I have never seen anything remotely close to what you are describing.

Do you have any photo's taken at WDW, 6 Flags, Sea World, Busch Gardens or any other similar park, displaying what you have described? Or are you just making this up?

Thanks for finding that link on the big change in using bump lists - namely that there aren't any anymore.

Pardon me.

I hadn't quite realized you have a severe reading comprehension problem...

After you address that, maybe we can address the Alice in Wonderland world you think we share.

Didn't say anything about disney. We were talking about Six Flags over Texas. Disney is already in the death spiral of perversion and nothing short of a total collapse and restructuring of the company (including a purge of all homosexuals and homosexual enablers working there) will ever bring the families back.

the group will simply re-schedule.

And this is why it's an important distinction. Disney gay gays are an event to themselves. The attack on safe family entertainment in Texas is tied to a specific gay pride weekend where gay days at six fags is not the main event. It takes little effort to find out when the rest of pervert fest is scheduled and then close down for that weekend.

So, what have you accomplished? By closing, you have alienated 90+% of your target demographic;

No. You've only alienated 2% of the population and maybe 5% of your targeted demographic. Since sodomites and child molestors are most definitely not your target audience for a family frinedly park who cares if they are alienated. Post a sign saying something like "Six Flags is closed for maintenance this weekend in order to avoid sexual perverts from rampaging through our privately owned facility. We will reopen on xx/xx/xx as a family safe entertainment park"

Some will be ticked off but most will appreciate the effort to keep our kids safe from being exposed to homosexual behavior

You have lost Millions in revenue,

I'd wager that six flags doesn't take in millions over a single weekend, and since they have to close for maintenance sometime they might as well close when undesirables are planning to overrun the park

Either way, you can't stop them.

That's what they told the hotel owners for black spring break. The hotel owners closed for maintenance and made the lost revenue back up quickly AND they had no overwhelming costs to their facilities (vandalism repairs etc) or reputation. A family oriented facility in the USA can not afford to lose it's reputation. Disney did and it's in a slow death spiral. If I owned a park I wouldn't want to join them.

You are such an ignorant boob for even making such a comment. Wherever that originated, I have no idea but "GOD DOES NOT HATE 'FAGS'." Quit perpetuating nonsensical stereotypes. GOD hates homosexual behavior, not the homosexual, and ANYONE who tells/says different has no true faith. I would not want to expose my children to that type of behavior, but I have educated them on what homosexuality is and because of their faith in GOD they KNOW it is wrong.

Should Six Flags inform non-religious types when a church group holds an informal, non-sponsored gathering?

Homosexual acts and religious groups are not equivalent. Homosexual activity is intrinsically evil.

"God Hates Fags?"

God hates homosexual acts. God loves all of his children, but those who practice evil and die unrepentant have chosen their own damnation.

I'm sure if Six Flags wanted, they could bring an action to legally enjoin The Dallas Voice, Texas Triangle and QTexas from the unauthorized use of the Six Flags name in their "Gay Days" ads. The fact that Six Flags doesn't is tacit approval of the use of the Six Flags name in the "Gay Days" ads.

Good point. This is what we should call to the attention of Six Flags.

"Instead of shielding your child from this "deviant" behavior, why don't you point them out to your children and explain how those two people kissing each other are going to go to Hell cause "God Hates Fags?"

That's the Christian way...

Clever. Your indifference will help lead to more deaths from AIDS. More importantly, you are indifferent to the fate of their eternal souls.

Revelation 3:15-16

I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm–neither hot nor cold–I am about to spit you out of my mouth.

Thanks Aquinasfan, for pointing this out, I work with teens and they need to learn to separate the hate of the act from the hate of the person, God is not willing that any should perish, and we must love our neighbor as we love ourselves.
