    Many cities have painted their police cars in support of their local LGBTQ citizens ....
    http://nypost.com/2016/06/22/nypd-shows-support-for-gay-pride-with-new-look-patrol-suv/ Have you observed one of the "colorful" police cars in your area, yet???

    City streets paint crosswalks to support their LGBTQ citizens. You can walk with pride in these cities with permanent rainbow crosswalks
    Will this, or has this come to your town/city yet?

    Is this necessary? And do you support the use of your municipal tax dollars going to CHAMPION moral sin for the sake or an immoral minority? :Whistling

    Why are my tax dollars being used to support their religion?

    This is where we have come to people - pride at having sinful behavior. God is not fooled and He will have His say with those folks at the proper time.

    There was a fuss in Minneapolis for the gay pride parade on Saturday. The LGBTQ committee told the police not to walk because they didn't want to associate with them due to the Philando Castile shooting verdict. The problem is...the police chief is a lesbian and said it was wrong to exclude the police from the parade.

    It is interesting to see the exclusion from a supposedly inclusive group.

    Sinners will do sinful things and feed their pleasures. This is the norm.
    If Christians approve of such sin, then there is a problem, but for the unsaved, I see such actions as normal.
    In Paul's letter we see that God had saved some homosexuals and Paul reminded them to abstain from such immorality.
    God is still saving homosexuals out of their sinful lifestyle just as he saved us from our rebellious ways.

    Gen 9 [13] I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.

    Nothing new that man has corrupted what God established. Ugh!

    Minneapolis reversed the ban on cops marching in the pride parade. The chief of police was there waving the rainbow flag.

    The police union rejected the terms being pushed on them. The police chief went because she had come to a pesonal compromise with the LGBTQ committee running the gay pride parade.

    At least that was the story on last night's local news broadcast.

    This is all wrong. The parade organizers did not want police marching in the parade this year because of the Philando Castile shooting and subsequent acquittal of the police officer that shot him. The police chief got the organizers to reverse their decision and cops were allowed to march, just as they have in years past.

    Yes, but the police officers union chose not to participate because of the extra stipulations added by the parade committee. The police chief is not a part of the union.

    OK, I'll bite. What terms were being forced on the police union that they rejected?
