If not then they don't march.

The group banners are usually Irish counties or police/fire department fraternal orders.

This group only wants to display their Gay Pride banner..nothing to do with being Irish or of Irish heritage.

The LGBT groups have their own holiday with their own parade. Be content with that. Why force yourselves on other groups and their celebrations ?
So there is no such thing as gay Irish Americans?

Gays can march, they just cant advertise the fact and really who cares if they are? Shut up already.

Because they are the only ones that want to announce their abnormal sexuality to the world. You can join deBlasio as well if you cant see that.

The group didn't say anything about Irish heritage so that is not even part of their request.
They just want to march and display their Gay Pride banner.

Why does it bother you that Irish Gays celebrate who they are?
