Application for ‘Straight Pride Parade’ approved by City of Boston.

Quote:

An application for the proposed “Straight Pride Parade” in Boston was approved Wednesday by the city.

With their public event application, organizers got city permission to host a parade on Aug. 31 from noon to 3 p.m. However, they still need approvals from the police department and licensing board to receive a needed parade permit and entertainment license.

Mayor Marty Walsh has previously said the city could not deny the group behind the proposal, Super Happy Fun America, a permit for the event because of disagreements with the event organizers’ values or beliefs.

“Permits to host a public event are granted based on operational feasibility, not based on values or endorsements of belief,” the mayor said in early June.

“Straight people are an oppressed majority,” Hugo wrote in a statement on the group’s website. “We will fight for the right of straights everywhere to express pride in themselves without fear of judgement and hate. The day will come when straights will finally be included as equals among all of the other orientations.”
I mean wtf?
Where straights are oppressed? Gay saunas?

Do you have any sources for this? I thought the organisers were a run of them mill Republican and a free speech advocate; neither screams "far right".

Thanks:)

Resisting Marxism is pretty reasonable, it's a shame the movement had to be associated with extremists...

I actually can't wait to see this flop. It's going to be the most tragic parade ever and the incels and neckbeards organising this will make themselves look stupid in a way that will be documented forever.

Exactly!! Why would anyone want it cancelled when it's gonna be a beautiful tragedy <3

...’’The mayor's office emphasized that event applications are granted "based on operational feasibility" and not "values or endorsements of beliefs."

...is that the mayor’s way of saying...this is farcical but I don’t have any choice because it’s feasible...the bigotry and prejudice the poor heterosexual suffers daily for their sexuality... I hope this parade helps to heal their souls in some small way..:sad:..

Livia 28-06-2019 10:21 AM

I am not prepared for multiples of this on the back of a series of flatbed trucks.
