Their Event
In this era of supposed inclusivity, where political correctness is the new world order, it’s hard not to marvel at the audacity of the self-proclaimed champions of marginalized communities. The latest chapter in the saga of the ever-outraged left brings us to the Disability Pride event, which was dominated by an “LGBTQ mob” deciding who can and cannot attend and film a public event payed for by taxpayer money. In the act of hi-jacking a disability driven event, it seems that the tables have turned, and the self-proclaimed victims became the oppressors.

Their Event-Not Welcome
The event, meant to celebrate and empower disabled individuals, quickly transformed into a bizarre spectacle of irony and intolerance. Myself a disabled journalist, eager to cover the heartwarming stories of courage and triumph that one would expect from such an occasion was instead catapulted into a circus of discrimination and intolerance.
Due to pressure from others in attendance, I was suddenly told to stop what I was doing (recording the event), by the host Alissa Norman. As I attempted to understand how a public event was outside of constitutional free speech laws, the event host resorted to the ultimate weapon of the perpetually offended – a call to the police. Yes, folks, recording a public event led to the summoning of law enforcement. One can only imagine how the police officers really felt about being called to referee an absurd dispute over a journalist merely doing their job.
As I continued to record the event, I was instructed by Leslie Castanello that I could only film people who gave their permission to do so. Apparently, the inclusive brigade didn’t take kindly to someone exercising their right to press freedom, even at a public event. As it turns out, inclusivity has its limits, and crossing the invisible line of politically correct behavior can earn you an immediate eviction from their so-called safe space.
One can’t help but ponder the irony of the situation. Disability Pride, an event intended to showcase unity and solidarity among the disabled community, was suddenly usurped by another group claiming victimhood. The LGBTQ community, with its penchant for preaching acceptance and diversity, showed its true colors by forcefully asserting dominance over an event that was never theirs to begin with.
Guilty by Association
It seems that, in the name of progressivism, it’s perfectly acceptable to discriminate against others who do not conform to your worldview. The same people who cry foul when they feel marginalized are more than willing to marginalize others to maintain their own narrative. This double standard is the hallmark of modern-day activism, where the rights of one group are only as valuable as they serve the agenda of another.
The scene could have been called a tragic comedy, with the very people preaching tolerance and understanding turning into the antagonists of their own narrative. Perhaps the LGBTQ mob should consider enrolling in a crash course on irony and self-awareness before trying to hijack an event that celebrates a different cause altogether.
It’s time for us, the rational majority, to take a step back and question the legitimacy of these supposed advocates of justice and equality. While their rhetoric might be wrapped in the finest silk of virtue, their actions reveal the ugly truth – they’re no better than the oppressors they claim to fight against.
Public Event on Private Property
I was instructed by the responding police officer that, in the end, I was restricted from filming the event and, additionally, was barred from re-entry as an observer. I pondered the mindset of those still inside the building. In their pursuit of an ideological utopia, they have forgotten the true essence of unity. Genuine unity can only be achieved when people, regardless of their backgrounds, come together to share their stories, learn from one another, and celebrate their unique identities. It is a collective tapestry of experiences and struggles that we must weave, not a battle of victimhood one-upmanship.
So, if the time comes where you encounter an event meant to celebrate the triumph of a particular community, be cautious of the infiltrators who seek to capitalize on someone else’s struggle for their own gains. Be vigilant for intolerance masquerading as inclusivity and embrace the true essence of unity: where all voices are heard, respected, and celebrated. After all, the road to progress begins with honest introspection and the rejection of hypocrisy in all its forms.
