Banning homosexuals from parades?
Sorry?
Are they planning to do that whole, marching in leather chaps and Dorthy outfits? Cause if so, they were done a service.
New york or boston, probably boston, banned homosexuals from marching in the st patricksday parade.
I doubt it was Boston, considering their whole legalizing gay marriage thing.
Being the first state to allow gays the same marriage right as straights, then not letting them march in the parade seems a little petty.
Do Australians celebrate the day that the first convict ships arrived there, chockful of criminals? It'd be kinda like American Thanksgiving, only more thieving and raping, I guess.

why does everyone use st patricks day as an excuse to get really drunk instead of drive snakes from their lands like st patrick actually did?
i mean, we ride out and slay dragons on st george's day, we don't go out and get off our tits on e or something
Dude, that's like bitching because on Christmas, they talk about Santa and give presents instead of freeze their asses off in a manger with a fake baby Jesus, or that we eat candy on Easter instead of hanging out in an empty tomb.
Yeah, drinking has nothing to do with the holiday, but the Irish are known for drinking, and people love excuses to drink excessively.
Im growing a beard for st pattys day. This is not going to end well, when I realize my facial hair is red.
The hell you say! Red? Irish? It goes together like.... like.... Bush and retardation!
Making fun of Bush is, from this day forth, not cool. It's like making fun of people with down syndrome... it may seem like a good idea, but everyone just thinks your a dick.
Also, I'm Irish and my beard has flecks of red in it, but not completely red... It's great! It gives it that something extra, I think.
No, I'm pretty sure that a douche-bag who sends thousands of people to their deaths is fair game for being made fun of.
Not if it's a really dumb insult, though.
Oh, in that case go after the "Quality not quantity" issue. That's a whole different debate though, isn't it really?
Ok, you're definately correct. The issue is quality.
Hell, a quality joke about anything is ok, even down syndrome.

I am hesitant to have a problem with this particular ban because of having witnessed the flamboyant idiocy and vulgarity of one particular gay pride parade. I am all for letting homosexuals have rights, to protest, to marry, and everything else. I do support their right to gather and stuff in parades. Unfortunately, I do not support ANYONE's right to march down the street with a necklace of 2 foot long dildos, carrying a sign saying "Condoms are for Straights", or wearing a leather cowboy outfit where the balls are poking out.
It is exceedingly tough for a city to police that kind of stuff when they are already dealing with a million or so drunken idiots in the crowds already.
Y'know... I will often contemplate the last 6 years worth of American Foreign policy and I'll just... I just ...
Jesus christ, it seems so surreal to me. Like, I know it happened... but, I just can't believe that anyone was fucking dumb enough to actually make it happen.
Seriously, every step of the way I just watched (well, watched, wrote letters and protested) and thought to myself "This is a bad idea. This idea has 'Bad Idea' written in four hundred foot tall flaming letters stapled directly onto it."
I dunno, maybe the sign was too big to see... maybe they only saw the flaming giant B and were like "oh, I guess it's a B idea... well, we could try for an A+ idea, but hell, that's good enough." I don't know...
I just... what the fuck?! How can any of the current US foreign policy EVER seem to be a good idea? What planets have to align for someone to think that this brain dead policy might actually fucking work?
christ...
Are you mad at normal Americans who originally agreed with the policies, or those making the policy? Because if it's the former, then I disagree. I mean, in hindsight, I agree with you, but I saw Colin Powell's address live about Iraq and they had me convinced. They LIED to me, but what I was TOLD was convincing. That's not my fault for buying it.

they probably don't let the gays in the parade because they look fucking stupid and are making it worse for the rest of us
*golfclap*
sorry, "gay pride" just gets on my tits
no no I quit agree with you
parades with boners everywhere and signs saying "We're here, we're queer, now put it in my rear!" are not going to garner sympathetic feelings or acceptance from anyone

Right on man. A lie is totally fucked up in any situation. To lie to start a war should result in an impeachment, in a perfect world. In a perfect world, war wouldn't have been a possibility. In a perfect world, we could find a way to help Iraq become stronger and Iran have a Nuclear power industry without the weapons.

That just shows that you're an idiot.
The speach wasn't convincing at all. There was PLENTY of information which flat-out disproved the Administrations lines.
There are reasons why MILLIONS of people protested the war. It was obvious, it was clear, it was blatant. The evidence was shit, the causes were fallsified and the outcome was pretty much clear.
Yet they went ahead and went in and people supported them because those people were idiots who have such myopic visions as to not actually look at facts or history or cause-effect chains.
The insurgency isn't a surprise. The lack of WMDs isn't a surprise. The fact that more people have died after this invasion than Saddam killed isn't a surprise.
NONE OF THIS SHOULD BE A SURPRISE! Because it was fucking obvious from day one.

Ya, the entire post was basically a know-it-all rant with no information or facts to strengthen it. While it sounds convincing, it lacks meat to make it legitimate.
There are several untrue and/or unfounded generalizations in this post.
Yes?
Dude, hindsight is always 20/20, and your rant just makes you seem like a self-important dick shouting "I was never fooled!"
I said, I agree with you now, and it didn't take me very long to realize that what I was told was a bold-faced lie. But to say I'm an idiot for being convinced with falsified material is just stupid.
I knew there would be an insurgency if we invaded, and I knew people would die. That was never in question. What happened was, they lied so convincingly that it seemed like it might have been worth it if diplomacy failed.
But then, afterwards, they didn't let diplomacy continue, they invaded without international support, and then, it turns out, all the reasons they supplied to begin with were lies. Thus, the problems arose.
But to say I'm an idiot for being fooled by a lie just makes you a jerk.

yeah really the war in iraq isn't so bad

I'm sorry, I didn't know my angry, disgruntled rants required evidence. I'm not really here to inform or anything, I'm just fucking pissed off.
Back before the invasion of Iraq I was all "people, this is going to lead to a civil war. There are no WMD's there (sources cited yo) and we're only going to destabilize the region, piss off Iran and cause them to gain traction in the area."
Those things happened.

actually i think she probably celebrated every day by getting completely pissed
Honestly....
Replace 'Gays' with 'SE++' and it makes just as much sense.
so it would be better than thanksgiving?
Dude, that's like bitching because on Christmas, they talk about Santa and give presents instead of freeze their asses off in a manger with a fake baby Jesus, or that we eat candy on Easter instead of hanging out in an empty tomb.
