I don't want my tax dollars spent on a lot of things, JD, but that doesn't 
stop the powers that be.  If they didn't spend money on any parades, 
concerts or outdoor events, many businesses would suffer the loss of 
visitors' revenue.  I don't care is someone is gay, lesbian or transgender - 
my decision on what I think of them comes down to merit, and nothing more.
