Free Speech

Very strange. I’m ok with banning it. Free speech doesn’t give you the right to shut down the streets to mock the holocaust. Let them go post crap on the net like other lunatics (and us).

i think its worrying that apparently there are quite a lot that want such a parade but its good to have that visible
i dont see any difference with other parades so if they want to dress up, look weird and party let them?

I would ban all parades including the sodomy parade and I don’t feel this is a free speech thing at all. Free speech has nothing to do with shutting down streets. Go speak. Go to a park and tell all the passers by what you believe. Or post on the net as I said. Why must you shut down my city to celebrate sodomy or football or St. Patrick or whatever other silly thing you want to celebrate?

i dont have a need to do so myself but apparently its what a lot of people want?
its probably good for the environment as well since it blocks polluting cars lol cant you walk or use a bike and dance right through it?

It’s not your city. You don’t have a patent on the streets. What makes verbal speech okay but self-expression wrong besides your penchant for words? It’s not like you hang out on Main Street where your life would be disrupted.

i didnt want to bring up mcdonalds again yesterday but its a new day lol and it must be a real pain for some people if you cant get in your car to quickly get there

As if delivery is not an option.

lol of course not, you cant show off your car and let other people enjoy your loud music if you do that

That settles it. The world revolves around those who choose to express themselves with words as opposed to a self expression.

“My city” doesn’t mean I own the city, Michele. Don’t be foolish. It is a common phrase people use to identify the city they call home.

Nothing. Express yourself all you want. Just don’t block the streets doing it.

I don’t know about your city but in mine, the perversion parade pretty much shuts down the entire downtown core. The equally silly Irish parade takes up slightly less space but it’s still impossible to navigate the city when it’s on. We haven’t had the football parade for awhile so I’m not sure about that one. As far as I’m concerned they could shut down the stupid football team.

what? no speed skating parade?! your dutch canadians did very well in the world championships last month

I didn’t even know we had a speed skating team.

shame on you, canada won both the 5k and 10k

I have been to Moose Jaw. Several times, actually.

I can honestly say I had never heard of him before this post.

Moose Jaw. Home of Mac the Moose. Worlds largest moose statue.

Civic pride.

Yes, they’ve done him up nicely.

He looks almost regal in the 2nd picture. The big rocks and protective fencing.
