Gay men reclaimed the label “proud” over the weekend, taking over the Twitter hashtag from the far-right Proud Boys who have been causing havoc and violence in the Pacific Northwest. The hashtag, trending all weekend, was not populated by hate-filled messages, but rather with joyous photos and stories from gay men. “What if gay guys took pictures of themselves making out with each other or doing very gay things, then tagged themselves with #ProudBoys,” George Takei tweeted with the hashtag “reclaiming my shine.” “I bet it would mess them up real bad.” The Proud Boys, founded by Vice co-founder Gavin McInnes, have been designated

" Proud Boys who have been causing havoc and violence in the Pacific Northwest"
Didn't read beyond that. They lie and their obvious bias is in the first paragraph --

When did the original Proud Boys cause violence and havoc? Biased reporting!! But I agree with #1; the name Proud Boys seems to lend itself more to the gay community in my opinion than to a group of proud MEN who love their country and are willing to fight if needed to keep it as the Founders intended it to be.
I appreciate those MEN but am beyond tired of having the gay agenda pushed in my face at every opportunity. I do not understand why they are proud that they stick body parts where God never intended them to be "stuck". Their lifestyle is nothing to celebrate; they are delusional if they really believe it is.

Trump is pro Gay Black and you name it. He's from NYC. I guess y'all are not. Vote for Biden then. One more thing... my experience for many years is that people who are way anti-gay have a, shall we say, uh, a personal issue. Lol.

Who is causing havoc and violence. What freakin planet is Kate Feldmanare from the NEW York Daily News living on. I don't care if you're gay, straight or if you're an idiot like George Takei reclaiming his shine, whatever that means. But don't print something like this pure bullsh** which is a total lie. Its your guys like BLM and Antifa causing havoc and burning down cities. Get your freakin story straight or don't print it. Got it.

I agree #7. I don't know why so much bigotry has been hitting this place lately, but from my experiences today's "conservatives" were the classic liberals...meaning we support freedom, EQUALITY for all under the law, and support for the individual--not the collective. We used to have a more live and let live view. And while many of us may feel that same sex relationships were a sin because of certain religious reasons, we also recognized that not everyone has the same beliefs. Also, we recognized that we are ALL sinners--nobody is a saint. Some people are created differently than others. Most do not choose to whom they are attracted. Besides, a state of being does not necessarily mean anyone is participating in any particular behavior. Still, if people are consenting adults, that is their business. They are not hurting anyone by loving each other. And yes, it is a matter of love most of the time. Sure, males will always show more promiscuity than females because of their biology. But not all males only act out by their sexual drive--including gay men. It is up to the individual. That said, I hope the bigotry that has been showing up in recent years among us will stop soon. We used to judge INDIVIDUALS. Let's leave the group-think to the bigoted left. Homosexuals should have the same rights and respect as the rest of us. If some are pushing a radical agenda, then attack that agenda and its proponents. But people should not have to feel ashamed for being made differently. They should be allowed to act like everyone else, and if they introduce their partner, they should be accepted and treated the same as if they were heterosexual.

The Proud Boys on their website explicitly do NOT discriminate against gays. They write, " We do not discriminate based upon race or sexual orientation/preference. "

So this is a case of obnoxious smart alecks slandering someone they don't like, and being proud of themselves for doing so.

There is a huge, yawning chasm between being disgusted by sexual perversion and wanting to harm people or discriminate against them. This behavior is abnormal, has huge probabilities to reduce lifespan, and is not capable of creating life, the real purpose of sex, but clearly not the only purpose. It is also sinful by Christian teaching. But being against perversion and sin is very different than wishing any harm or discrimination against these people. I don't support their behavior, and they can't make me tell them how "normal they are" which seems to be their biggest goal. They seem to want to force people to say that they are normal, using loss of jobs, etc. as hammers, when they are clearly not. I would just rather not hear about them or their acts.
Keep it private, get no comments. Push it into the public, expect some comments.

They had to, they weren't getting enough attention. George Takei has to hold the award for the longest milking of a bit part on a TV show from 50 years ago.

Like many temptations, homosexuality is destructive.
Unlike most destructive temptations, many who give in to the destructive of homosexuality want the rest of us to not only pretend that the behavior is a good thing but to celebrate it.
I have plenty of my own problems. I am happy not to have to deal with homosexual temptations. I have great admiration for those who are afflicted with this particular challenge and fight valiantly within themselves to refrain from it and eventually overcome it.
On the other hand, i loathe those homosexuals who are predators looking to introduce the vile behavior to others.

Take back “Pride”, it didn’t used to apply to sodomy, why can’t anyone else be proud of something? Did they get a trademark or copyright I’m unaware of?
Next up, rainbows. Christians, little girls who like unicorns, and Oz had them before perverse activists.

They're lauded for flaunting their sexuality obnoxiously and disgustingly, at every opportunity and especially in the presence of young children, and despite enjoying mainstream media adulation and a superset of civil rights, they're oppressed victims who need to impose themselves on every aspect of modern culture. Remember when they just wanted the freedom to do their thing behind closed doors? Now they demand the right to drag the rest of us in and make us watch.
