Sad that the 2014 Gay Games are coming to Cleveland

Thursday, October 08, 2009

So the Gay Games are coming ("Cleveland is selected to be host of 2014 Gay Games," Sept. 30). I find myself angry and disappointed that money seems to be the only reason people are happy.

I cannot help but be sad at the fact we are getting the Gay Games.

I am afraid of what this is saying about Cleveland. I think we have become too tolerant of diverse lifestyles.

Somehow I just cannot see people saying, "Gee, honey, let's take our kids to the Gay Games." More like, "I am afraid to take my children downtown because the Gay Games are going on."

Larry Molnar

Cleveland


Nice. Something positive happens for Cleveland's GLBT community and we give troglodyte homophobes a voice. Classic. And they wonder why Ohio's young get the hell outta dodge as soon as they graduate (well, things like the "intolerance" and the "bad weather" and the "never-ending massive unemployment" . . .).

2. "OMG, honey! Today sodomites came into the store and spent $300!"
"I was so horrified! Let's move to Wasilla!" :eyes:

5. Cough cough...Lakewood.

Dumb fuck doesn't know that for years Lakewood has been #3 (maybe not now) in population % of LGBT folks. (After San Fran and the Village.)

Sure they may not have pride parades and may be in their middle years without the flair of the other two places...but none the less Lakewood (or the Lakewood I knew a few years ago) was very very gay. And that's very very Okay.

10. I guess he didn't notice the Pride Parades downtown.
I'm not getting what he means by "too tolerant". Are we into a scary "Year Zero" mindset here? Is he in favor of "dumpin' th'm all on an EYEland!"?

13. Oh yeah, it's an annual thing now. Or semi-annual.
The roller derby league usually has an entry in that one.

7. Yeah, we're just too tolerant here in Cleveland. And all for the filthy lucre!
Down with diversity! We should all shudder in fear as Teh Gayez invade our fair city!!!!! :scared:

I mean, think of what might happen to these poor people's kids if they take them downtown during the Gay Games. They might see...a bunch of people competing in sports!!!!!! And come to the conclusion that they are human beings!!!!!!!!!

14. You are so right!!
Yeah, Teh Coloreds are already keeping him and his kids away from downtown. God forbid they should find themselves in Tower City with someone of a different skin shade.

9. Wait till he finds out that about 1 in 10 people he meets everyday
are gay. And most likely in his family there is at least one gay person.
Only way to stop gays from existing is for heteros to quit having kids. I would nominate him to be first.

15. that's the thing with homophobes: they think sexuality is CONTAGIOUS!
being "exposed" to gayness will warp children, they say--and, they fear, themselves

hence the screeching Proposition H8 ads
