Fortunately, mayors and sponsors of two cities, New York and Boston are coming out against the madness of keeping TGLBQ groups out of the parades. In fact, both mayors refused to even be in the parades.
As important as that is,as always money is even a more powerful motivator. In response to the bigotry, major sponsors such as Sam Adams and Guinness Beers are pulling their financial support from the parades as well. Their reason was simple and to the point. It was the right thing to do. Plus, just maybe, we TGLBQ peeps support their products!
