But it hurts when he sits down

Every time I’ve met him he looks like he just finished a mayo sammich.

We call it cleaning whistles britches.

I think I mentioned it previously.... The grand Marshall for the straight pride parade was notorious homosexual Milo Yannapolis... Definitely wasnt an anti-gay thing...

The DA is playing politics, Frank.

And the white supremacy angle was played well before the parade began.
It's probably true that the organizers were involved with a group like that. Who else is stupid enough to hold such an event?

But it appears that the parade did not emulate that mentality.

The only violence came from those protesting the "parade".

Calling these protests "free speech" should be embarrassing even for most liberals. You don't embrace free speech by trying to squelch opposing free speech with violence and force.



Side note: I find it odd that you mention the tie to white supremacy but have not mentioned the "protesters" tie to Antifa. Those masked thugs were in the belly of the crowd getting pepper sprayed.

And you haven't mentioned the actions of one of the "Squad" broads. Presley is pushing for an "independent" investigation. Because she doesn't trust the cops or the judge.



Think about this.
A "straight pride parade" was pulled off over labor day weekend in the city of Boston.
And the polarizing impact will be orchestrated by the DA and Squad Presley.

It would be funny if it weren't despicable.

from my earlier quote:

..." but something like 6 are alleged to have assaulted police. The judge has given every indication he will deal harshly with those individuals if the charges are accurate, as he should."

you know we agree about the squelching. But you may be overlooking the entire premise for this otherwise totally unnecessary parade. Take a look at the organizers. This is what they wanted...even if someone got killed.

What could possibly be wrong with that group?


Harpo definitely is. Zeppo might be in the closet


Haven’t we had enough trouble tonight without the thread jacking off?

So that's actually an interesting question.

I'm honestly not sure what the answer to that is. I'd have to do some digging.

I don't know if protesters of a parade are commonly referred to as protesters or counter-protesters.

Additionally, I'm not sure what the specific difference between a parade and a protest is (I know that sounds dumb... but it's true. If I wanted to file permits for an anti-trump parade..... is that just a parade? Or is it a protest? I mean, you can play cute and claim they are having a parade for straights.... but there is no rock one can be under that is large enough to hide from the fact this "straight pride parade" is not in response to the existence of a "gay pride parade"... so is it a parade, or a protest masked as a parade?.... is there a permitting difference?)

There's the potential for some merit to your question. But it'd require some other stuff lining up right.

That is.... stupidly brilliant? :)

So when you have diarrhea and your bowels continuously move, you could accurately call it a sh1t parade?

For the record, most parades I've been involved in had a fixed start and finish time that were strictly enforced by the city...

Parade organizers have to file an itinerary for each entry in the parade and determine the speed they'll travel at in order to finish in the time allotted....

Performers are allowed to pause - generally for a maximum of 30 seconds - in front of the judges booth... But after that, you pick your clothes up off the ground, you get back on your wooden horse, and you keep moving...

From Boston city website, specific to parades...

YOUR REQUEST MUST INCLUDE:
the name of the group sponsoring the road race or parade
the date of the event
the route that the road race or parade will take
the formation point for participants
the starting time
the expected number of participants, and
the name, address and daytime telephone number of the organizer.
PARADE VEHICLES
The Boston Police have rules and requirements around parade vehicles. You can learn more about those rules online

That's just the application... I'm sure there's more required to be filled after the initial application...

You couldn't be more wrong about what you understood to be "telling the world" it's ok to use violence
I understand you're probable political issues re: this DA, but you are totally incorrect about her statements on whom to charge and whom to release.

Some of those charged were holding hands to form a soft blockade, and of those charged, she wanted the release of anyone with zero priors. And some being simply verbal were pepper sprayed and may have acted out from that...correctly being investigated.
BUT>>>She also wanted full prosecution of anyone charged with any acts of violence whatsoever.

Anyway, I'm far beyond believing this had anything to do with a handful of members of the vast majority feeling as though they needed to show their pride in the face of, of, I don't even know of what they imagined.

I'm much more intrigued by those who used the marching homophobics as pawns...looking like what the police would do in a sting operation.

Joe, I'm really just caught up in connecting the dots here, not the DA's or Police roles...yet.
I think it's naive to think it was what we saw on the surface.

And paying attention to or wanting to add the squad to this discussion is changing the core focus of what may or may not have happened, so I'll pass on Pressley.

Hope I'm not coming off as angrily defending a position. I had no interest in this until stuff like Opel brought up panned out. Just want to see if there is a real right wing conspiracy to enjoy here.

incorrect, your grievance did not happen, unless you mean other than the yuuuge Boston Globe. Not sure who else would matter here.

I couldn't recall seeing the term counter protesters used from yesterday's Front Page Above The Fold article on this, so I just dug out the newspaper from the recycle bin.

Beginning with the headline: "Judge Won't Let Protesters Off Hook" and continuing through the front page text and including the secondary headline on the page 7 continuation from page one which reads: "Judge won't dismiss charges against march protesters"...the influential main stream media Boston Globe consistently called the marchers "marchers" and the parade "parade" while calling the protesters of those marching in the parade "protesters". They even called the violent protesters "violent protesters".

It would be subtle, yet relevant, I absolutely agree, had it actually happened in the major media player in Boston.
But it didn't...at least not in the most visible locations.

I now believe in fake news...HA!

For a guy who doesn't like bringing politics into it, you sure are bringing politics into it.
I'm trying to find out what may have happened here, it's sort of fascinating. You may not be aware of it but you are trying to lead this discussion to fringe portions of the event and aftermath.

I don't want this to be about me, you, Pressly, etc. I am now hooked on this mystery...I thank opel.
He was the first to say this parade had nothing to do with people proud of not being gay...the real powers behind the impetus for this march include a gay ex-Breitbart guy who has quite a resume. And a white nationalist(s).

Why?

That's intriguing. Screw the squad's opinion. Clouds the story line.

If bronys started a pro cbid parade would we celebrate them and would they still be bronys?

That's what I told him.
But he told me it was great being Grand Marshall, because he was the first in line to finish the parade.
He would then go home while everyone else was watching the parade and have the sex with someone he called "Opel's momma".
I didn't know who he meant at the time.

So maybe we're related?

Did i miss the meeting where we all decided we were gonna start taking about **** each other's moms? I was always under the impression we didn't do that around here, but if we're all agreeing to it, I guess I can join the ranks....

I missed the one that said we couldn't...

I always thought we weren't supposed to.

but I have been hearing different information as of late.

(granted... you did call tail's grandpa a homo 1 post before....)

So, we can't talk about the time TW saw his Aunt's boobs but we can talk about when his uncle assaulted him.. sexually...

We can talk about any time TW got sexually assaulted.

I'm not sure whether we can identify the uncle or have to leave it at "unidentified older male".... You'd have to ask an expert on cbid rules for that

Yeah... we prolly can say he rammed him.

Just can't identify the uncle.

Joked that he was gay because he was in parades... Right after I made the same joke about myself...

I get that the line between joking and attacking is different in everyone's book... Just thought most people knew better than to drag people's moms's into things...

I heard Freddie got fingered
