Topic: We should cancel pride parades
gay people have suffered alot over the decades and should be entitled to have a parade celebrating their sexuality.
hate groups make this a venue for violence and hate crimes.
homosexuality is against gods will and pride parades should be stopped.
homosexuality is against god's will and pride parades should be stopped.
homosexuals have gotten their way on everything in society having a parade is ridiculous.
i think pride parades are important as there is lots of hate against people who like the same sex and it gives people a chance to get together and realize they should be who they are and not be afraid.
i think that should cancel pride parades for our well.
if all people are considered equal, these parades do not show the similarities but the difference.  don't make a big deal by exploiting the differences.
if pride parades are canceled, then many lgbtq+ youth will have nowhere to safely celebrate who they are.
if religious people had parades celebrating their way of life in the streets, including opposing gay relationships, it would be offensive. live and let live don't force it down people's throats
if the kkk can march, then anyone can march, pride parades hurt no one.
if they are offensive, perhaps they could celebrate in a place that does not shut down streets and where they are accepted instead of "making" people be a part of it, even if just passing through.
if we cancel pride parades we've got to cancel all specific racial parades
if we cancel pride parades, we have thhat they progress with the people
if we had a 'white parade', "black parade', or a  'straight parade' people would be screaming discrimination. by allowing pride parades you are saying that gay people have rights that other people do not.
in democracy, everybody has the option to choose what they want and how they want and canceling pride parades will be wrong and opposite of democracy.
it is essential that people realize the whole world is diverse. by promoting these parades we are showing the world that you need to be proud of who you are regardless or gender or orientation.
it may be safer to cancel these events.  also you could save money by not having to provide the necessary security.
it sends a valuable message to the lgbt community that they are free and able to celebrate their lives
it should be cancelled as it promotes same sex marriage
it would be a huge step backwards, essentially telling the lgbt community not to have "pride" in who they are anymore
lbga issues are real and serious.  parade activities detract from these issues and attract dissidents who are sometimes violent.  in the short term these activities should be curtailed.
lgbt people have the right to express who they are and remind everyone that they didn't also have the freedom to celebrate like this.
lgbtq communities have been oppressed for decades and they deserve their chance to express themselves without bigotry
lgbtq receive so much hate it’s nice for them to have their own parade surrounded by so much inclusivity, support and positivity.
many cultures simply would not tolerate a gay pride parade
