( finally )
IT'S PRIDE IN THE ATL!!!

A few years ago, at the peak of the Southern drought, Pride got moved- date and location, because of the ware and tear on Peidmont Park in the Spring and Summer. I guess they liked the change of date, because its back in the park, but held near National Coming Out Day rather than the Anniversary of Stonewall.
For those not from Atlanta, it's is a massive thing. Depending on the band that plays this afternoon and the weather 100k plus plus folks gay and straight. Delta, Coca Cola and Home Depot... really, this is some mainstream America , just set to a disco beat ( or we are all doomed anyway lesbian folk music non beat..... not that there is anything wrong with that...)

The National Convention of the  Wethe Westboro Baptist Church  Club was held in DC last week, ( aka The Values Voters Summit ) with wall to wall GOD HATES FAGS. All the GOP Presidential wannabes were there hating the gays and loving the fetuses. Gloom and doom, the gays are coming for your children , guns and bible... you know the routine.

SO, today.. Pride in Atlanta, and the AJC prints this HORRIBLE SUBVERSIVE GAYS ARE A MENACE photo from the event:
hide your wife / hide your kids

War is over.

and a lovely greeting from Atlanta's
cutie patootie Mayor:
