I entertained at a pride event today

Did it last year as well. I've entertained at mosques, synagogues, churches, and just about every kind of event.

They had police officers there. They didn't have them last year. The mosques and synagogues I've entertained at have had them as well. I've never seen one at a church.

This is why I scoff at claims of American Christian persecution.

Have police at these events are pretty much inevitable at this point. Reason they moved our pride to an event area where you have to pay now instead of being out at a park where any psycho can waltz up with an AR-15 and open fire on people.

I am pretty sure the Asian Hate is still pretty prominent as well. Sure glad its not on DU.
