00:05:00.400 No one cares.

00:05:01.880 No one really cares.

00:05:03.780 And if they have an opinion, that's their opinion.

00:05:05.540 As long as no one hurts anybody, everything's fine.

00:05:09.600 But that wasn't enough, was it?

00:05:12.360 Equality is never enough for people that say they're fighting for equality.

00:05:54.900 then goes all right pack up the office put away the stationary with our little lgbtq name and

00:06:02.540 pronouns on it we're all done we're equal there's not a a law in this country not a right that

00:06:11.620 anyone has that does not also apply to us they never do that these organizations go on forever

00:06:19.980 so uh the lgbtq community the word community jesus uh they they have a whole month

00:06:32.380 June is Pride Month, a vibrant, rainbow-filled celebration honoring LGBTQ plus history, equality, and community.

00:06:44.340 Families can celebrate Pride Month with the kids by attending family-friendly Pride events,

00:06:53.200 like the over-the-top parades and rallies.

00:06:55.520 Oh, really? Like the parade we saw the other day where transgender men were walking around completely naked, some of them with bows tied around their genitals? Is that the one you want to take the little kids to? 0.98

00:07:14.420 the uh the flamboyant uh get-ups men their hairy asses hanging out of western chaps 0.98

00:07:25.620 that's it junior loved it oh i can't imagine the nightmares the kids uh 0.97

00:07:33.000 have when when they take them home from those events

00:07:35.780 arts and crafts making rainbow crafts support lgbtq owned businesses learn about lgbtq history

00:07:48.060 and uh have real conversations about inclusion and acceptance how about that huh

00:07:55.880 so whether you're a member of the queer community then that used to be a a slur

00:08:02.780 hey you queer i thought that was a slur or consider yourself an ally here's a few ways

00:08:09.840 to celebrate pride month this june again with your kids um first of all why why is june pride month 0.81

00:08:20.900 hmm i've always wondered that one well it seems that uh it's to mark the anniversary of the

00:08:28.080 stonewall riots in new york city the stonewall inn uh on on june 28th 1969 was raided by the

00:08:39.920 horrible intolerant nypd it was a gay bar in greenwich village new york 0.59

00:08:49.640 uh you know they try to make it sound so whimsical i don't think anyone understands 0.85

00:08:58.060 what gay bars were in uh 1969 new york city holy jeez i bet when you walked in the door 0.75

00:09:07.960 it felt like you were on a skating rink i bet you could slide right to the back of the bar

00:09:13.800 so uh there was a riot there because the cops tried to shut down the gay bar

00:09:21.400 and uh that led to a big long protest ignited a national firestorm it was flaming uh of activism

00:09:31.900 and elevated the fight for lgbtq equality pride events celebrate the uprising annually

00:09:39.020 right that's why it's

00:09:41.140 it's there let's see in addition to

00:09:43.840 recognizing the decades long and

00:09:45.860 still ongoing fight for

00:09:47.800 equal rights in the queer community

00:09:50.120 see it's still
