Irish-American heritage month is March. There are parades and everything on a day dedicated to an Irish saint that month.

And is frequently shown in movies with big stars, I am still waiting for Gay Pride to be part of a movie with the likes of Harrison Ford where Harry pretends to be gay or at least a supporter of gays


teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

How does this hurt you?

For a whole month, he has to see companies (Sincere or not) engage in equality and all those rainbows.

Which is odd because I assumed the Op only shops at Hobby Lobby and Bass Pro Shops. 

Let me ask you something Lek when it comes to the.....WATCH OUT! DUCK! A LESBIAN COUPLE IS PICKING UP A WEDDING CAKE BEHIND YOU!!!!! Phew* That was close.

@Lek you owe me one, big time.

Hand in glove these days, they got groomed...but boy do they get pissy when you mention that.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Maybe the corporations who make a deal out of Pride Month should - starting now - be making plans to drop all of the slogans and marketing based around 'love is love' and 'acceptance' and similar insincere corporate nonsense designed to do nothing more than boost profits with a feel good campaign to get me to buy more rainbow [insert product here].

Wanna make me believe that you think LGBTQ rights are something more than a profit opportunity? Double your marketing budget for the next pride month, use that money to lobby for LGBTQ rights (senators are a bargain right now) and make the slogan 'Queer and trans people are in danger'.
