opposing sides week two

So again with the Subject of Pride Parades, many people are in favor for them. Mostly gays, and other allies. We think that it is an expression of our pride which it is. For years homosexuals and other LGBTQ people have been made fun of, attacked, ridiculed, and even killed and we can't help but feel that we truely are the minority no one cares about. This pride states that we have eachother and we don't have to hide or pretend to match a certian standard. Because we are our own people. That is what it comes down to.
