National Conservative Coming Out Day - Summary and Pics
Well the National Conservative Coming Out Day has come and gone. For about the ten or so conservatives that were there, there were about 100 or so protesters. Most of the time they sat there with their backs turned, held up signs, and were quiet. There were members of I-Resist (who isn't a legitimate organization anymore apparenlty) with a megaphone that kept making noise. One picture below is a guy who yelled "stop being a dick". PRIDE was there trying to say they didn't like the stereotyping but in their press release they stereotype conservatives as wanting women in the kitchen.
My article in the DI on Friday will have most of my opinions, but here are some parting pictures of the event which was, all in all, uneventful. Pictures are in the full entry, click on it. My favorite is the 5th picture of the girl protesting intolerance and bigotry by wearing a shirt that has a racial slur on it.
The all of about 6 conservatives up there, outnumbers by probably even the number of cops on the scene.
Can't have a coming out without a closet door, I guess.
Some of the hundred some odd protesters.
One of their signs.
Nothing like protesting bigotry and intolerance while wearing a T-shirt with racial slurs.
This was megaphone, stop being a dick, guy.
