BOSTON - Several dozen marchers and about as many counter-demonstrators have gathered in Boston for a "straight pride" parade.
A group called Super Happy Fun America announced the parade as Boston celebrated LGBTQ Pride Month earlier this summer.The parade, slated to start noon Saturday at Copley Plaza, was to travel through major downtown streets before ending with a rally at City Hall Plaza.Among the scheduled speakers is a leader of the Proud Boys, which the Anti-Defamation League describes as an "extremist conservative group.
Straight pride is nothing but a cover for hate.
i totally love this.... straight pride.. do not hate the straight...great to be straight.. pass it on.. wear a taupe ribbon in celebration.. anytime all year.
They paid their fees and put in the permits requesting a parade. Let them be, they're literally doing it just to be trolls. Protesting and fighting with them solves nothing; it just adds fuel to their little troll fires they're hoping to light.
Who cares ? If people want to march, let them.
I was in a straight pride parade like 6 hours ago on the 401
I cant believe there are parades teaching children that its ok to be straight
There is nothing wrong in being proud of sexual orientation, skin colour, nationaity., etc. Everyone is proud of something: proud Asian, proud black, proud gay, proud trans, proud straight, proud white. Everyone should be welcomed to celebrate their pride
I'm in favour of LGBTQ2+ rights etc BUT recent parades of waving penises in childrens' faces and showing people being led around like animals ISN'T LGBTQ2+, it's outright XXX pornography & displays of sexual antics and in front of children in other setting would result in arrest
Ignorance has a name and it is 'Straight Parade.' You do not show support to a community struggling for equal rights and acceptance by flaunting your different rights in their faces. Disappointed in humanity today.
Hey nice to see NO PUBLIC XXX pornography unlike in the other pride parades. Why didn't you comment on this FACT.
🤣😅😂love it where are the leaders now?
If the other community can have a parade why can’t we celebrate our choices aswell!
Straight Pride! It's great to be straight!
Ban all these parades! Stupid
I don't care about strait, gay, lesbian or anything else! Be who you are without causing arms to others! Look a white pride parade, a French Canadian parade, a Quebecer pride parade, a Montrealer pride parade. Well that's enough stupidity! I grow tired of all those pride parade.
Why should it? Oh that's right - the 'tolerant left' are offended. lol
I’m confused why would there be a straight pride parade. No think there needs to be a together parade whydo we have separate ourselves in catergories. Yeah I’m straight but why can’t everyone just be loving forget judging
Be whatever the hell u want to be, but shut the hell up about it.
What have straight people ever done for us...other than ensuring the survival of he species....but other than that...?
Ok Why? ... Because Straight people are victims of hate crimes and discrimination on every level like gay people are 🤨
No it is great to be a decent human being and pretty cool to be a queer, married woman with a wonderful step-daughter.
Why?
I think gay pride and straight pride parades are stupid but to each their own Most people I know - gay or straight - couldn't care less how anyone else lives
Its about time the field was levelled. Wish I was there to support the vast majority of heterosexuals.
How nice that you don’t report that the organizers of this parade are affiliated with white supremacy groups. Do better.
This is just as stupid as the gay one.
How offensive.
A parade with no hairy asses hanging out? Weird.
gay or straight; sexual orientation is private and should never be flaunted in public; it just means that you have no redeeming qualities; if all you have to show off is what you do with your private parts. I do have to say thought; at least they kept their clothes on.
Who cares.
... and a whole lot of head-shaking, eye-rolling snickering. 😂😊😂
Yeah, u no, I'm straight too... and proud of it
Parades have lost their meaning. They used to be fun till both groups started using them to further their cause. I do wish the gay parades would stop dangling their do-da's in everyone's face though, pretty low class I say no matter your sexual preference🥴
Straight people have never had to fight for equality or the right to marry the person you love. Here is an idea, let's strip away all rights straight people have and see if they like it and how they act!
If straights did this in piblic...
Wonder what color they will want the crosswalks painted🤔?
So why are those two holding hands?
I love this !! Be straight and proud and let the whole world know they’re are straight people that enjoy the company of the opposite sex. Be straight and proud
Isn't that a picture of 2 guys holding hands? I honestly can't tell, sorry.
Protesting no nudity gimps or children being forced to watch and participate I guess!!
What's fair is fair. I guess straight people can now protest gay parades without shame.
This is really not needed.
Is a handful of ridiculous people participating in a pointless and futile march really newsworthy? It's just attention seekers. Ignore them.
I'm in
To each their own Personally I think the idea of a parade whether straight or gay is stupid
I’m guessing no one was dressed up like this
Your just a sad human if you need this your a coward but not cause of any real threat but a makbelive one meanwhile most of tje people are the reason gays need parads cause these same cowards are the ones who deny gays their simple humans rights.
This is pretty gay
It’s not OK! Same as it’s not OK being proud for being white!
or celebrate the majority day
lol its like a white pride parade
although this is pretty stupid and just being used to drum up controversy . On a good note they’re won’t be any ppl showing their junk off to children like at the pride parades .
Initiated by the same impetus as racism. Fear, fear of what they think they are losing, their close minded way of life. They feel threatened by their ignorance and are acting out in the only way they know how.
Is this StraightPride a fucking joke
This actually makes sense. They have parades for every fricking thing now. Straight people should have a parade now. Seems like being straight these days is a little weird, no?.
🤦♂️
This should be an election issue in Canada, eh ?
Straight people never had to fight for their right to marry, or been victims of hate crimes. They never lost their partners to a plague of AIDS, or suffered the astronomical rates of suicide and depression. Straight people should be thankful they never needed a Pride parade!!!
Funny how 'chemicals, including the herbicide atrazine, and link them to changes in reproductive health and development. Endocrine disrupting toxic chemicals have been found to feminize male frogs and cause homosexual behavior.' Is there an agenda?
So brave
There very strong!!
