Sodomy in the park?
Guess I won’t be visiting any national parks anytime soon.
Beyond words ... FK the park service!
Rest stops on the turnpike?
More land that needs to be taken away from the feds.
I can see the little plaques now:
“And right behind this here tree was where John and Bill consumated their marriage.”
The founders and supporters of the early National Parks hardly had this in mind.
What a travesty.
.
National Historic Landmarks (and Registered Historic Places) are at the bottom of the ladder. It means they get a plaque for the front wall and a dot on a map. This is only the beginning, though.
Larry Sinclair Memorial Park.
What, are they going to put up a bronze plaque in the rear stall of the men’s room?
So what’s the deal? Are we supposed to visit the Stonewall Inn, and go have a drink there? Is it still a homosexual bar? Is it still there, or did they just mark the site of it?
Maybe I’m a cranky old man, but, shouldn’t “LGBT” history just be something that can be mentioned, if a member of the “LGBT” community has done something that would be historic whether such person was sexually confused or not????
For example, I hear that astronaut Sally Ride was lesbian. Isn’t her place in history as the first woman astronaut due to her being that first woman astronaut, not that she was a homosexual?
:: Sodomy in the park? ::
I think it was the 4th of July...
The features of this bathhouse included a disco dance floor, a cabaret lounge, sauna rooms, an “Olympia blue” swimming pool, and a capacity to serve nearly 1,000 men, 24 hours a day.
One gay guide from the 1970s described the Continental Baths as a place that “revolutionized the bath scene in New York.”[3]
Some features of the Continental Bathhouse included a warning system that tipped off patrons when police arrived. There were also an STD clinic, a supply of A200 (a lice-killing shampoo) in the showers, and K-Y Jelly in the candy vending machine.
Will the National Historic site have a commemorative Petri dish with a variety of STD cultures?
Well, let’s see - we already have:
Bent’s Old Fort
Big Hole
Big South Fork
Bighorn Canyon
Castle Clinton
Fire Island
Golden Spike
Mammoth Cave
Organ Pipe Cactus
I’m certain the rope suckers can claim to have had something to do with some of these. I also see the National Park service has already created a couple for the rest of us as well:
Poverty Point
Trail of Tears
OMG, LOL!
I’m getting to the point I’m not sure I want to live out my final years in this drain-circling, rotting mess of a country. Things have gone irretrievably off-track.
So NASA was converted to bearded-savage outreach, and now the park service is promoting the rainbow flag crowd. What next? The post office promoting abortion?
