Mayor Bill de Blasio marched Sunday near the head of the gay-friendly St. Pat's for All parade in Queens, leading a contingent of elected officials who will also join him in boycotting the St. Patrick's Day parade in Manhattan later this month because it excludes LGBT community members.

"We are here to honor the extraordinary Irish heritage of this city . . . and we want to do it in a way that respects all people and all communities," de Blasio said.

So, no one stopped the homosexuals from marching openly, and this was the decision of the parade organizers....in the OTHER parade, the organizers were not keen on having sodomite propaganda.....

So why all the whining?

[Ancient Man]

Queens ... fitting.

[Vendome]

They didn’t all the NAMBLA members, practitioners of bestiality or mere strippers in the original parade either

[Vendome]

Exactly why it was chosen.

Queens parading in Queens....

[struggle]

Don’t bring your kids!

[SoFloFreeper]

The answer is because the media and their homosexual allies insist on their lifestyle being FORCED DOWN EVERYONE’S THROAT.

[CincyRichieRich]

No more Guinness, no more Sam Adams products.
Heck, there’s plenty of micro/craft beers...

[Army Air Corps]

That, and home brew!

[MeshugeMikey]

Im surprised they didnt Call it The Queens Parade!

Here is the problem the parade is not to be used to flaunt your sexual preferences. Im sure within every ethnic group there are deviants of all shapes sizes and colors but the celebration is about ethnic heritage not the perversions within. Do we care what you do in the privacy and bedroom of your home? no! If your proud of it keep it to yourself and dont subject this to my children, this is not the new normal as the media and the gay organizations are advertizing.

Neo pagans like de Blasio who neither hold nor respect Catholic beliefs and traditions do the right thing when they exclude themselves from what is essentially a Catholic celebration. Their presence would be a hypocritical imposition on the other participants.

Queens ... fitting.

Still have to LOL, notwithstanding that I spent some of my formative years in that borough... :-)

[Starboard]

You’re right. Lots of other quality brews to choose from.

Neo pagans like de Blasio

I know pagans that are live and let live. de Blasio and his ilk are viciously anti-Christian.

the St. Patrick's Day parade in Manhattan later this month because it excludes LGBT community members.

But, it DOES NOT exclude LGBTWXYZ members !

Nothing says they cannot march.

They were not allowed to march UNDER THEIR OWN BANNER.

The NRA was told the same thing.

[Ted Grant]

This is low hanging fruit in a city like nyc. He doesn’t have to do much, he won’t alienate many Irish that will vote for him anyway, and placate the gays who hold a lot of campaign cash.

[windsorknot]

and we want to do it in a way that respects all people and all communities

except those who believe in the sanctity of traditional marriage.

Revised headline:

Mayor Bill de Blasio attends gay-friendly homosexual advocating St. Patrick's Day parade in Queens

HOMOSEXUAL, because there's nothing GAY about it.

[ScottinVA]

Only in modern America can a St. Patrick’s parade get intractably mucked up with politics.

Good God, the homosexuals have their “Pride week” crap... obviously that’s not enough.. they have this driving need to front the whole world 24/7. And God forbid anyone resist it, lest they be labeled “bigot” or “homophobe.”
