Here's a little more from the Honolulu Advertiser.

Group is denied part in parade

The Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays group twice has been denied a spot in the city's Family Day "Kid's Parade," an event sponsored by the Hawaii Christian Coalition, said Michael Golojuch Jr., project coordinator of PFLAG.

Family Day is a daylong series of events being held July 5 in Waikiki.

Malcolm Tom, the city's deputy managing director, defended the decision by the parade sponsor.

"It's a simple issue: The parade is a private parade, sponsored by the Hawaii Christian Coalition," Tom said. "As sponsor, they have right to select and choose who they want to have in the parade."

Update: A local judge ruled against the gay activists late on Thursday; too late for an appeal before the event on Saturday morning. The queers turned out in force at the parade to protest and got their mugs on local TV calling everyone homophobes and bigots. The usual stuff.

"Look at ME! Look at ME! Look at ME!" Like a bunch of three year olds begging for attention.

They had their own "Gay Pride" parade the weekend before but that wasn't enough for them. They had to barge in on the Christian Coalition's Family Day parade too.

What a bunch of jerks.
