Dennis Prager argues that Minneapolis' pride-themed street signs represent a left-wing imposition on public space. He questions whether such displays educate or alienate, and suggests the left tolerates no neutral ground in culture.
Now here's a story that summarizes our times. I'm sorry to say, to a very large extent. Minneapolis installs pride-themed, pride-themed signs. Street signs, not just signs, street signs. They're taking down, like here, West 14th Street. It is the West 14th is inscribed on the top of the colors of the, of the Minneapolis streetside. So I have two thoughts. Has there ever been a more arrogant group than the LGBTQIA activists? I don't believe so. I can't think of it. There may well have been. The imposing of their agenda on the American people is unprecedented. One can have a complete acceptance of the fact that there is diversity in the human condition, sexually speaking, but to push in everybody's face Pride in, and I frankly, I don't take pride in trans. I will admit, I don't take pride actually in any of them. I don't have contempt and I don't take pride. What does it mean? Do we want straight pride signs? Well, they'll say, well, all society has always been heteronormative. You're right, that's correct. It has been heteronormative. By the way, what do you tell your 5-year-old? It's an interesting question. Hey, Mom and Dad, why is Yale Place red, orange, yellow, green, purple, and blue? What do you say? I'm serious. What do you say? Oh, it's just a colorful thing. I don't know. I don't know what you say. We're celebrating people who have sex with both sexes. Oh, okay. Thank you, Mom. I mean, isn't that what the L— wasn't that what the B stands for? It's particularly awful in light of the fact that we never have signs with red, white, and blue. Are there any street signs in Minneapolis that are red, white, and blue, or are they all red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple? That's, that's the fair question in my opinion. Boy, Minneapolis has flipped out. I have another question, and this is a very serious question. Other than alienating people, do you think it brings people over to their side? Which do you think it does more? Has more love for LGBTQIA+ or contempt for their imposing their agenda? If pro-life people started to have signs in Minneapolis, inconceivable, obviously. Why can't there be, and this is the ultimate question, can there be any neutral territory as far as the left is concerned?
