Super Bowl Pro-Gay Marriage Moment Sends Beautiful Love Message

[Occam's Banana]

I honestly didn't get the gay pride but I see it's there now.

I did not see it as gay but more like peace and love.

Lol. I've been accused of not having "Gay-dar." I thought it was Sgt. Pepperish myself.

I didn't get that it was a pro-gay message. No one I was watching the game with did either.

I am not buying it being a tribute to gays at least not in totality. How did we get to a point where putting up a sign that says "Believe In Love" and a mix of colors is supposed to all about gays.

Obviously, you people need to check your cis-hetero privilege.

there's nothing beautiful about rainbows and homosexuality. But then again, what do you expect from ignorant Americans who spend a day watching muscled men bump heads to destroy the little brains they got left?

Tenn. parents fight Gay-Straight Alliance in high school

WINCHESTER, Tenn. - A group of students at Franklin County High School in Tennessee wanted a safe environment to talk about issues affecting the gay community, especially bullying, so they started a club that invited people of all sexual orientations to do so.

The Gay-Straight Alliance they formed can be found in several variations in high schools across America, but to many parents in the Franklin County Schools, they're no better than terrorists, according to CBS affiliate WTVF in Nashville.

At a school board meeting Monday night, resident Robert Widelick took to the microphone and said he doubted the groups agenda that he claims they're trying to impose on people who attend their meetings.

"There's really no place for discussion of sexual orientation in a public high school," Widelick said.

Dozens of supporters stood up, cheered and waved towels and signs after Widelick shared his opinion at the meeting.

A social media page created last month called for school board members to move the club off campus. WTVF reports one parent on Facebook compared the Gay-Straight Alliance to ISIS.

"We have a complicated county, and we have lots of differing points of view," said Jennie Turrell, the faculty adviser for the organization, "and valid views and powerful views on both sides of this conversation."

Franklin County Schools Director Amie Lonas said the organization, which was created to promote tolerance and acceptance, followed the proper procedure to establish the club. Students say it was really largely done in response to bullying. The group was granted approval to form by school officials in December.

"It's a safe environment for students to get together and just talk," Lonas said.

While the Gay-Straight Alliance was allowed to form, some critics said that no organized meetings were held before members of the community began to question its motives and intent.

The school did not make a decision about whether to keep allowing the club on Monday evening, so it will continue to meet normally. Meanwhile, officials are looking through the policies for creating clubs on schools.

District officials said because of federal funding, they cannot decide to ban the Gay Straight Alliance. The only option would be to ban all schools.

Seems we have gotten to a point where anytime we see a mix of pretty colors it is supposed to be ALL about gays. He did hug a fan that was holding what could be a rainbow flag but I am not buying it being a tribute to gays at least not in totality. How did we get to a point where putting up a sign that says "Believe In Love" and a mix of colors is supposed to all about gays.

Here is the cover for Coldplay's - A Head Full of Dreams

GAY.

The Coldplay/Beyonce Super Bowl Halftime Show Was Surprisingly Political
Black Lives Matter and LBGT imagery ran throughout America's most-watched 12-minute concert.

You may have missed it entirely (with milquetoast snooze-rockers Coldplay billed as the headliners, no one would blame you), but yesterday's Super Bowl halftime show included some striking political flourishes.

Chris Martin and company warbled through a short medley of their LITE-FM hits before Beyonce and a gaggle of dancers clad in Black Panther-style berets burst onto the scene, performing a verse from her new song "Formation." At one point, Queen Bey and crew formed an "X" on the field, in an apparent nod to Malcom X.

A segment of the music video for "Formation" features a young African-American boy in a hoodie raising his hands before a line of militarized police, followed by a shot of a graffiti spray-painted wall reading "Stop Shooting Us." However, it should be noted, the lyrics to the song itself are strikingly apolitical.

Prior to the game played at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, CA (not far from Oakland, where the Black Panthers were born), Beyonce's dancers were photographed holding their fists in the air in a 1960s-style Black Power salute, with one dancer holding a piece of paper reading "Justice for Mario Woods," a reference to the man whose shooting death at the hands of San Francisco police drew widespread attention late last year.
[...]
Bruno Mars was there too, for some reason, Coldplay concluded the 12-minute spectacle with a massive participatory effort by the audience holding up placards forming a stadium-wide rainbow and the words "Believe in Love." This imagery was widely interpreted as a celebration of nearby San Francisco's legacy as America's LGBTQ mecca.

In what might be a case of squeezing political meaning out of a moment where little exists, The Daily Beast's Kevin Fallon wrote that Lady Gaga's pre-game rendition of the Star-Spangled Banner was "campy, theatrical, and queer-as-hell" and "a sign of the times."

At least they're not sacrificing Christians (yet):

No matter how outlandish the halftime shows get they’ve been worse. A lot worse.

But much less discussed, and indeed largely forgotten, is the spectacle that kept the Roman audiences in their seats through the sweltering midafternoon heat: the blood-spattered halftime show known as damnatio ad bestias — literally "condemnation by beasts" — orchestrated by men known as the bestiarii.

"Much less discussed and largely forgotten?" Really?

 

[Unknownuser]

That's something to consider...

Perhaps it is in line with population control. Gays are unable to reproduce.

LOL Mark Dice reaching extra hard this year for his annual Halftime = Illuminati Hell rant.

 

[Brian4Liberty]

At least they're not sacrificing Christians (yet):

Metaphorically they did just that.

- The song itself is anti-Christian and anti-God (i.e. God doesn't rule the world anymore). Chalk one up for the victory of godless global socialism/communism.

The bolded is by far the sanest statement in that article.

Obvious solution is obvious, even to public school officials ...

Dice is pretty close to the mark. If you don't know that then you're way behind the curve. The exoteric meaning of the halftime show was "gay pride". The esoteric meaning was "New World Order".

Profound lyrics there. Deserving of a Grammy. Maybe Kanye will jump up and interrupt the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry and steal the prize for Beyonce.

That doesn't say much for Jay Z's sexual skills, does it?

Those cheddar bay biscuits are to die for. So if a Red Lobster reward is what it takes to get a good fuck out of Jay Z, I guess it's win-win for her.
