For those of you who don’t follow our gay blogger, Jerry Thornton, he wrote a story a few days ago about some guy who’s trying to organize a ‘Straight Pride Parade’ in Boston. According to multiple news outlets (as well as the parade’s organizer) it’s most likely going to happen.

Here’s the statement on his Facebook page which I’m purposefully not linking.

It looks like the Boston Straight Pride Parade will happen. We filed a discrimination complaint and it appears the City of Boston understands they would lose in litigation. The city is now working with us on the parade. We will have the streets closed and be allowed floats and vehicles. The tentative date is 8/31 but will be finalized in the next few weeks. The proposed parade route is below. If you would like to come as an individual, march as a group, or bring a float or vehicle, then get in touch. This is our chance to have a patriotic parade in Boston as we celebrate straight pride.

Obviously, the guy is a lunatic so take anything he says with a grain of salt, but he seems to be serious about doing it. Which naturally prompted a strong response from everyone on Twitter with a brain…

…everyone EXCEPT Tomi Larhen who used her platform to say this:

I don’t want to break down everything she said because it’s a waste of time, but I will say that if you have to qualify your argument with “I have no problem with LGBT people doing what they do BUT…” you probably have a problem with what LGBT people ‘do.’ That or you know exactly what to say to gin up controversy and boost your ratings. She’s been doing it her whole career. She’s too smart to believe half the things she says. She knows the Gay Pride Parade was born out of a necessity to been seen, heard, and treated equally. She knows it’s not a publicity stunt or ‘something that started as a joke’ like she said about the straight pride parade. She knows that visibility is important, especially for marginalized people who don’t have any. She knows all of that. She’s just trying to make a buck by saying shit that uneducated, scared, people want hear. It’s honestly sad.

Anyway, there is a silver lining because we got a first look at the straight pride flags, which are fantastic. One of them looks like the Hamburglar.
