    I don't need an objective argument because it would be opposed to an empty-minded opinion from the far right.

    What difficulty and adversary do you feel the heterosexual community is facing?
    Go into detail

    Recent science has said there are several genes that likely influence whether one is heterosexual or homosexual. So I guess you are technically correct, there is no gay gene there are gay genes (as in plural).

    The remainder of your opinion is not based by medical research or even logic.

    And an angry response from those who profess freedom of speech, AKA ANTIFA is a good thing.

    Which is it, a neurological defect or a choice?
    It can’t be both.

    This is why y’all are largely ignored and have lost the issue so quickly, you can’t even formulate a consistent opinion besides “gay is bad”.

    What's good for the goose is good for the gander. If one side of any issue can have a parade, so too can the other side. I personally think having a parade to celebrate gay pride or straight pride is ridiculous, but whatever floats their boat. Have at it. A parade one way or the other isn't about to change how I feel about anything.

    The parade happened because ordinary white straight people are under cultural attack.

    Simply look at the parade.

    36 arrests of counter protestors.

    The simple answer is... the liberal left is completely intolerant to the views and perspectives of anything that doesn't align with the progressive agenda. How many counter protestors were at the Gay Pride Parade?

    This is the difference that completely eludes the left.

    Oh, whaaaa.

    95% of the American population is straight. How pathetic do you have to be to feel you are under attack if you're straight?

    Similarly, 72% of Americans are white. How pathetic do you have to be to feel you are under attack if you're white?

    Grow up, grow some gonads, and stop acting like a minority group refusing to accept second-class status is somehow an attack on you.

    Yet again, the parade was not celebrating heterosexuality, it was mocking homosexuality. Of course people are going to protest.

    You are delusional if you believe gay pride events don’t have protestors — at all of them
    There are entire guides at pride events on why ignoring them is the best thing to do because they are so prevalent.

    So again, answer the question. What adversity are heterosexuals facing?
    Also how many of the protestors held up anti heterosexual banners or signs?

    Largely for minor stuff like disorderly conduct and disturbing the peace. And the protesters claim the police were the aggressors.

    The DA moved to drop most of the charges against most of the people -- suggesting there wasn't a lot of substance to them.

    "under cultural attack" for some straight white ordinary people is others say "you are not the norm anymore."

    In detail, how do you feel heterosexuals are under attack?

    Whereas the conservative Right is oh so tolerant of the views and perspectives of the Left...<sarcasm off>

    It's comical how certain people can't see there are people on BOTH sides who are intolerant to the other sides views.

    Let us not conflate that with heterosexuality, which on its face is not the least bit inimical to perversion.
    Not in the least, obviously, given that Obergefell was clearly an attack on the straight community, which includes people who see perversion as something to be avoided rather than justified.
    You're under the impression white people don't attack each other?

    Okay, I'll bite: please explain the difference between "straight" and "heterosexual". Why do I suspect this will be another "definition made up by yguy" moment?

    Interesting logic, to say the least. So because SOME straight people think homosexuality is a perversion, a court ruling legalizing gay marriage is an attack on straight people. O-o-o-kay.

    I think you misunderstood what I wrote. Perhaps I should have written "because you're white".

    Hint: don't marry a gay if you are straight.

    The right-wing demonstration — promoted as pro-heterosexuality, but criticized as intentionally provocative and homophobic — attracted hundreds of marchers and thousands of counter-protesters to closed-off downtown Boston streets Saturday.

    While the parade itself went without major incident, some protesters clashed after the event with the hundreds of police officers. The event resulted in 36 arrests and criticism of officers’ use of force, including pepper spray, to disperse the crowd.
