It happened three weeks ago, but this story is so bizarre that we couldn’t resist sharing it belatedly.
The story headlined “Gay Pride, Gay Prank or Gay Ole Time?” is from The Leakey (Texas) Star, which appears to be the “newspaper” serving a small Hill Country town west of San Antonio.
According to the story by the Star’s editor, Penny Maguire, there was an unusual entry in this year’s Fourth of July parade that featured people dressed as Harlem Globetrotters players accompanied by (gasp!) men impersonating female beauty pageant contestants. Some locals, including Maguire, now suspect the entry may have been part of a secret plot to advance the gay agenda. That’s right, only in Texas:
As Independence Day jubileers lined U.S. Hwy. 83 through rural downtown Leakey last Saturday, saluting the U.S. flag under umbrellas and pledging their allegiance to one nation under God, a controversial parade entry made an unexpected appearance. Some spectators, including Chamber Director Glenn Bradley, said the entry was ‘inappropriate.’
Parade enthusiasts are asking, “Was the popular, traditional family venue, when hometown queens, veterans, clowns, tractors, horses, and decorated trailers display the American flag, sabotaged?” “We didn’t mind the rain from tropical storm Alex, but this group rained on our Texas parade,” said one Rio Frio resident. Another spectator said the entry was ‘provocative.’ Many didn’t grasp the concept.
So, who were these participants and what was their entry theme, or was there one? Did a seemingly innocent, entertaining basketball performance by a group imitating the Harlem Globetrotters suggest subtle symbolisms of the gay pride movement? Touting a sign which read: America’s Champions, Miss America’s vs. Harlem Globe Trotters, may or may not have suggested participants were simulating a 2009 reality show (The Amazing Race) when two gay brothers competed with two Globetrotters and a former Miss America. Several of the marchers appeared to be men modeling women’s swimsuits wearing pageant banners and crowns. Homosexuals now compete in nationally acclaimed Miss Gay America competitions.

Pictured above, a male, crowned the title ‘Miss Hap’, sported a hot pink feminine bodysuit. Coincidentally, a Facebook fan page entitled ‘Miss Hap’ advertises drag queen events. Upon our investigation, other pageant banners, to include Miss Matched, Ms. Lead, Miss Cherokee and Miss Dream Catcher, interestingly linked to gay history. Superwoman is an organization that boasts support for lesbian marriages. Some spectators report women in the entry appeared to have sported patriotic superwoman attire.(www.iamsuperwoman.com.)
It’s that evil homosexual agenda rearing its ugly head again. Those gays are gonna take over yet.
This is absolutely terrific! Loved it. These people didn’t ruin anything. Power to them. Tom, they don’t want to take over, they just want to have equality. I am so proud of them. Anytime this agenda can be brought to anyone’s attention, it’s a great, great thing! Keep up the good work. I pledge allegiance to one nation. Period. God doesn’t have anything to do with it. Needs to be taken out of the pledge. Get over it!
Tom,
We are planning world domination over our heterosexual counterparts…
And the world will be all the more **FABULOUS** for it. 🙂
Dano, When you achieve that world domination, please contact us at the paper so we can get the exclusive on it. Also, timing would be best if you conquer said world sometime Wednesday or before Thursday noon for best timing with our printer. Otherwise said story of world domination will just appear on line.
I live in Leakey. Â I was at that parade. Â I read the article in the paper (now owned by someone else, btw) Â I hate living here. Â It is the most hateful, gossipy town one can imagine. Â I am straight, but have many LGBT friends. Â We have 425 residents and 14 churches. Â Someone get me out of this hellhole.
We are the new owners of The Leakey Star as of January 2011 and the article, opinions, or any of the content above in no way reflect our views.
Thanks,
The Leakey Star
I think y’all are missing the whole thing. It’s not about agendas or political advantage. Who doesn’t want to be in a parade? Well, the same holds true for those who also like to dress in drag. They just tend to stick out is all. I mean, is that really any stranger than a giggly senior citizen wearing a tasseled fez and driving a cartoonish go kart?
