Actually, it's more like 10-20%. I am not intolerant of straight people. I wouldn't find it hateful if straight people wanted to have a parade, I just don't see the nescessity.

Bull. They support left leaning organizations only. Otherwise they would support one of the most abused minorities in the country... gun owners. The ACLU should be disbanded.

They are called gay pride parades, not gay rights parades. What does dressing like clowns and the outragious sexual displays in gay pride parades have to do with gaining "rights"?

That is true. It is also true that we did not have Equal Rights then nor do we now. Why, may I ask, did you place Equal Rights in quotations?

Wow. You know they have defended the KKK right? And White Power groups? You are again proving you have limited knowledge of the ACLU.

More reason to remind people and celbrate the institution of a normal healthy family of straight traditional marriage and the value of being straight.

Educate yourself before making such statements. They certainly do not only support "leftist" groups.
