Conservatives urge boycott of Rose Parade over same-sex wedding float

Article PhotoAnti-LGBT activists and other right-wing conservatives are calling for a boycott of the 2014 Rose Parade because of a parade float that will feature the wedding of a same-sex couple.
CBS Los Angeles reported on Monday that Aubrey Loots and Danny LeClair plan to formalize their partnership of 12 years atop a float sponsored by the AIDS Health Foundation in this year’s parade.
The two will be the first same-sex couple to get married in the parade. On its Facebook Page, the foundation announced that the two men will be married on top of a float made of thousands of flowers shaped into a white wedding cake. The float will be one of 45 featured in this year’s Rose Parade, a tradition that dates back 125 years.
The theme of the float will be “Dreams Come True,” which for LeClair and Loots, could not be more true.
we need to start sanctioning and boycotting those who oppose others living their lives especially when it has no affect on them that is shoving your prejudices down the throats of those who may not be intolerant of another American pursuing life liberty and the pursuit of happiness, and who elected them hate police. 
 is God now speaking to groups in town halls and such were they instructed by God to forget the 10 commandments an go on and hate your little azzes off?
“AIDS Healthcare Foundation is about love is the ultimate protection. We’ve taken it to love saves lives. This is about love, across the world, no boundaries. We’re celebrating love,” Loots said to CBS. “This is also an opportunity, for us, to give a voice to people who don’t have a platform like this to express their love, in this country and many other countries, too.”
Last summer, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that supporters of California’s ban on same-sex marriages, Proposition 8, had no grounds legally to deny same-sex couples the right to marry. The decision allowed the thousands of same-sex couples married in the state to remain married, and couples like Lootens and LeClair to get married.
Anti-LGBT conservatives, on the other hand, are incensed.
you here the right wing say we are a country of laws, but they ignore this law, ACA, voter blocking and the few we know about so where is there any patriotism in that more so anti American and they wear it well.
