BOSTON (Reuters) – For the first time in the 114-year history of Boston’s St. Patrick’s Day parade, gay rights activists marched openly on Sunday under rainbow banners in the city’s annual celebration of its Irish heritage, after organizers lifted a longtime ban.

Two groups, Boston Pride and OutVets, were among dozens of contingents taking part in the parade through the center of South Boston, once an insular Irish-American neighborhood near downtown that has undergone gentrification in recent years.

“South Boston is more diverse then it’s ever been and our inclusion is a testament to change in the neighborhood,” said Sylvain Bruni, president of Boston Pride, as he waited to march.

Organizers had excluded gay groups for two decades, maintaining that homosexuality conflicted with Roman Catholic doctrine. But they came under intense pressure to change their position, which ran counter to the liberal attitudes that prevail in Massachusetts. The state was the first in the United States to legalize same-sex marriage in 2004.

“Finally in the city of Boston we’re seeing the inclusivity we never thought we would see,” said Bryan Bishop, the 46-year-old founder of OutVets, representing gay military veterans. “This is personally one of the greatest days of my life.”

You wanna post about "gay" -------- with that avatar??

Alllllllll righty then...
 
Many conservatives are indeed amusing.

They think being Muslim is 'bad'

All Blacks are 'thugs'

And all gay Americans are democrats.

And what about the "people controlling the media" that preach

that Christianity is abusive and oppressive

All Corporations and independent wealth means greed

All Constitutionalists who believe in liberty and States' rights
are Conservatives or Republicans playing politics

And all Tea Party is Racist
