It is with great sadness to find out that Saline County will be having a Gay Pride Parade in October. My question is, Why do gay people think we want to know about their sexual preference and parade it in public? Straight people don’t have a parade to help celebrate their sexual preference, but we are all thrown into knowing their business. It’s like today as Sodom and Gomorrah that God mentioned in the Bible . It’s here in our own backyard. Prayers are needed!
Disappoint of clarification – The neighbors in our community that are organizing this event didn’t have a parade last year and they have not announced any plans to have one this year.
