Never been to MSY, much less during Mardi Gras. I'm not a drinker so not my cup of tea. I would not mind going to see the buildings (that survived) and have some of the food. It's on my too do list.
Actually historic o'leans faired well, most of the old town was spared. as to the food, I grew up in the south and the food (cajun) is beyond description, that is if you like it spicey.
As to the topic. No one is forced to go to the parade. I fail to see how it harms society any more than some of the other crap that goes not that no one even says boo about. The violent films and games that are coming out just to mention one right off the top of my head. Seems as long as someone is making a buck off it, go for it.
Gar I could care less what gays or any other group does in their parade, they could have an orgy or a 'donkey show' on their float. My beef is when "CHILDREN" are exposed to the sexual content be it heterosexual, homosexual, beastiality, get the point? :blink: you've mentioned several times on these boards you don't have children and thats all fine and dandy, but many people do and would prefer to have their childs innocense preserved so they don't grow up to be a pervert!
A Smith has done more to harm society than any gay pride parade has IMO. She maries a billionaire with 2 feet in the grave, has the intelligence of a 5 year old. Parades her self around. Girls look at her and maybe think ... oh I can be like her (or Hilton, Lohan, Spears ....). We live in a society driven by money.
I don't think elementary age children (girls especially) see Anna Nichole as you and I do, Ive raised three kids all grown now two boys and one girl, though times have changed considerably in the past 25 years kids are still kids and their minds can't intelligently process all the crap that is thrown at them by society therefore they need to be protected.
Trump is looked as successful? Why?
By whom?... you? He's a charalton that has figured out to manipulate the system, he steps on whom'ever he has to in order to make money. Im surprised that some ex-buisness partner has'nt had him knocked off!
