In Boston, the mayor wouldn’t march in the parade because the organizers refuse to allow a gay group to march, and in New York, pressure from gay boycotters convinced Guinness to pull its sponsorship of the parade.
Evidently, it is not enough to have a Gay Pride parade every June. Now every parade must be a Gay Pride parade.
What’s going to happen first, a race war or war with the fags?
[…] Don’t They Have Their Own Parade? […]
We can’t have both?
It was less than 40 years ago that some “youths” decided to go fag-bashing at a north Dublin park, found some poor guy, who may or may not have been gay, and beat him to death.
The judge gave them one year probation. (It might have been a one year suspended sentence, I can’t remember exactly)
I don’t remember any particular outrage over the sentence either.
Many of the few I knew in Ireland who were gay were doing their best to leave the country. I wonder if these attempts to take over the Patty’s Day parades is by some of that particular variety of ex-pat, trying to stick it to the land of their birth.
Part of the politicization of everything. See also, the One attempting to co-opt the NCAA tournament to sell ACA insurance policies. It’s what the Left does. No part or activity of your life can remain untouched by its ideology, no matter how prosaic or pedestrian that activity is.
A war with homosexuals wouldn’t amount to much; they’re all afraid of real men.
OK, OK, that’s terrible, and I strongly denounce myself!
Since St Patrick’s Day is in celebration of a Catholic missionary and bishop, one would think that the Catholic position on homosexuality — that homosexuality is a condition, but homosexual activity is gravely sinful — would prevail, but if one actually thought that, he would apparently be wrong.
What is permissible will eventually be mandatory.
Would it be wrong of me to ask why anyone would be proud of being abnormal?
You know, denunciation onanism really doesn’t count. There has to be some ill-tempered, humorless scold involved. Karma demands it, I think.
[…] Gays ruining parades in NYC and Boston Evidently, it is not enough to have a Gay Pride parade every June. Now every parade must be a Gay Pride parade. […]
No more Guinness for me.
Gays … first they came and asked for tolerance. Well, ok then, we answered. Sounds fair.
Then the gays came back and wanted us to let them thrust their genital-laden life styles into our faces. And demanded that we swallow.
Draw a line. And punch back – twice as hard; just as Barack Obama suggested.
Yeah. Damn, but I like Guiness.
Did you really need to ask that question?
More likely to have race war intertwined with war with the fags.
But, but, but, if “some ill-tempered, humorless scold Has to be) involved,” I’ll lose 87.4% of my denunciations! I mean, Anamika doesn’t do denunciations, and I think, think, mind you, that Zohydro is just kidding.
Mr Nixon is already dead; do his count?
Did I need to? No, I didn’t absolutely have to, but sometimes I do optional things anyway.
BTW, am I the only person who wears orange on St. Patrick’s Day?
Blue jeans and a red plaid workshirt. Sorry, no green, but I’m not Irish.
Thankfully there is a microbrewery two blocks away that makes a very fine milk stout. I will be picking up a few ‘growlers’ for the evening to go along with the corned beef and cabbage …
Only in the political realm and for ‘cafeteris catholics’. Real Catholics will dot deviate from orthodoxy that homosexual activity is gravely sinful. Love the sinner but hate and detest the sin. One does not allow embracing of contrary beliefs or actions and must even actively fight against them. To not do so is a grave sin of omission, every bit as condemning to perdition as sins of commission. (and more cowardly)
Improper form! All the real men in that benighted community are women (real or imagined) either feminists or bull dykes that could give Arnold a run for his money …
Heh. I’m already as denounced as I’ll get …
I am Irish and I’m wearing khaki trousers and a grey t-shirt (it’s in the high 70’s with rain and wind).

I’m more broken up about having to leave my Sam Adams. Please Yuengling don’t go pozzed your my only hope left.
Because their happy, dad!, really really happy! Do you see their plastered on smiles and the terrified “adopted” children they hold in a death grip? Clearly happy!
If I had anything orange I would. God bless King Billy!
I let old rivalries and old wounds lie. May our gracious God heal all wounds.
More of a joke to spin up the humorless types, and I should have said that.
I understood it as such but really mean my comment. Mere variences in practice should not be the basis of a quasi-religious war. We’re mostly Christians here and most of us have firm Christian beliefs (those that don’t also do not hold our beliefs and moralty against us as their own personal codes mimic our social ideas and moral compasses). It’s all good to me! Together we shall march into the future …
My grandmother, proud Ulster Calvinist that she was, had a bright orange dress she always wore on March 17. When I was a little kid, I asked about it and she said “There’s orange on the Irish flag, too.” It wasn’t until high school after reading some history that I figured out what was what, although I did find it unusual that my relatives didn’t confess a rabid anti-Englishness common among the sons and daughters of Éirinn.
All that the the rules of NY’s Hibernians say is: there can be no signs of ANY kind. No pro-life, no anti-British, no gay. Because of this, the Gaystapo marched on Guinness. I say, push back whenever you can.
[…] Gays Ruin St. Patrick’s Day […]
So the rainbow flag is now the official color of St. Patrick’s day…
The rainbow is and will always be the sign of a covenant between God and men.
[…] their lifestyle, and those who don’t will be punished. I just have to wonder if they would try to ruin an Islamic […]
Screw the gays and drink Harp.
At my range, yes, briefly.
You should have warned us about the content of that image!
I was just asking.
I’ll help you out.
I very, extremely strongly denounce you.
That otter make up for the earlier self denunciation.
At least this year, St. Patrick managed to drive the snakes out
No you are not! My granny would NEVER let us kids were green.
I want to understand something… if you are gay, doesn’t that just mean you have sex with a person of the same sex? They are not a new species of human, or a new race, are they? They just fk differently…. their brains are not superior or special, are they? SO, WTF is with all the kowtowing to gay people? Why do they deserve special things.
Same here. And no more Sam Adams:

I hear also that Heineken did the same, but I’m not sure if it happened in New York or in Bosstown.
The real Sam Adams must be rolling so fast in his grave that he’s setting a revolution record.
I used to in high school. The only reason I don’t now is that I only wear black or dark gray and white.
Heineken! No! Say it ain’t so.
Wherein I offer A Special ‘Thank You’ To All The Homosexuals Out There.
