It would be nice if the militant activists would display a little bit of the tolerance and empathy that they are demanding from the rest of us.

I love it "militant activists"
One of the groups that wanted to march was comprised of gay veterans. Yea, really...

There is no reason, none whatsoever, for them to be in a tizzy over the St Patricks Day Parade. Why must they express their sexuality at every single podium that is available? Is there nothing else to their entire existence, beyond their sexuality? This is the "agenda" I was referring to, their insistence that every single public event has to have a BIGALA banner. When I march in a parade as a vet, I don't feel the need to carry a sign that says "I'm heterosexual AND YOU BETTER LIKE IT"! I don't need to make my sexuality the main issue every time I leave my house.

It's not about sexuality it's about identity. You seem to have this characterization about gay people like they're all running around in ass-less PVC chaps throwing condoms at little kids.
Perhaps if you had to spend most of your life hiding who you really were you'd think differently.
