I'm not overreacting when I'm stating facts. I'm not making this up. This stuff is an ongoing issue. I have not yet met one person here who likes those gay parades. Perhaps it's because it's like 5 or 6 years over here already, since gay marriage was legalized. People get tired of stuff. Especially stuff they weren't completely in agreement with in the first place.
You said you don't see what's wrong with it. I tried to explain, but it seems as though I was unable to show you what the people's thoughts are on the subject, and why they think these gay parades should stop.
I'm unsure if it was even your intention to find out more about that, or that you just wanted to say your opinion and be done with it. Either way is fine with me though. |
I was refering to when you quoted and replied to me. Comparing how gay people feel to people who survived Hitler? THATS over-reacting, my dear.
The idea of a gay pride parade isnt to victimize themselves, its to show pride in who they are. Thats very different. The same idea is the cruise that Rosie O'Donnell and her parter run. Its not just for gay families, but you have to have to be okay with the idea of gay families, because its a place where they can be themselves and proud of who they are. They arent going 'Oh we're victims.' they're just saying 'This is who we are and we're proud of that.' I think its commendable that they publically say that they're okay with who they are, and that goes for anybody not just gays.
