    Straight Pride Parade Permit Submitted To City Of Modesto



    As to the claim that the website talks about "whiteness" - that appears to be true, and is, for me, quite problematic.

    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

    First this is true, second, Black or Latino pride seems to be perfectly acceptable. Third, I think this is just push back to all the derogatory things being said about whites lately.

    I wonder if they will march half naked with sex toys.

    Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...

      Well I think groups and sites that push "black pride" like the Black Lives Matter, and the Black Panthers are racist, so I think sites and groups like this that push "White Pride" are just as racist. Which that site clearly appears to be.

        When I first heard of the Straight Pride parade in Boston a few weeks ago, I thought it was simply a funny response to gay pride parades. I didn't think it was serious or anything. Just a few trolls doing it for laughs. I thought the media was over blowing the whole affair. If I recall, initially someone made the point that the parade was even open to all sexual orientations, so it sounded like the whole affair was lighthearted goofiness.

        When I saw later reports that it was being done by white supremacists I was like, "oh brother." That this one is also connected to a white supremacist, and is also connecting Christianity with white pride, and nationalism is truly pathetic. All it's going to do is further fuel people's beliefs that Christianity leads to that sort of nonsense, especially since the news loves sensational garbage like this and rarely reports on Christians uniting past racial barriers.

            Yeah that's my thought too, "we don't need that kind of help"

            Heck it could even be some liberal group doing it to make conservatives look bad. I notice the website was only created a month ago looking at the whois (the registrar's info is hidden)

              Careful, that's an invitation for Tassman to crank up his "Southern Baptists are racists" screed!

                You gotta wonder if its Satan's plan to get Christianity associated with White Nationalism and "Racial Realism" (aka Racism)

                  If it's not his plan, I'm sure he's backing it!

                    It seems to be the Democrat party's plan anyway. Every chance they get they seem to make the accusation that Christian values are racist or bigoted. And all conservatives are Nazis and White supremacists.

                      A diversion from their own culture of death and open borders.

                        Not unless he's playing the long con. Don J. Grundmann, the guy doing this in Modesto has been a member of the right/far-right Constitution Party and American Independent Party since at least 2006: http://www.joincalifornia.com/candidate/3494

                        And Ryan Sahady one of the guys organizing the Boston parade has affiliated himself with the Proud Boys.

                            Even if there weren't any shady political connections, I think that Christians who get on board with things like "straight pride" are just giving credence to the idea that sexual orientation is something to take pride in, and that's not a game they should want to play. "They do it too" is not a reason to do anything.
                            "I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

                              Yeah, I've made the point numerous times that my sexual orientation is not what defines me, which is why I think it's dumb to be "proud of" a sexual orientation.
