The organizers of Boston’s “Straight Pride” march alerted law enforcement about several suspicious envelopes on Monday – only to find out the letters were filled with glitter.
Open something, see a suspicious substance–I won’t rate that as idiotic to alert the authorities. Now, the ‘Straight Pride’ organizers are 100% idiotic.
I’d have gone with ‘dont’ and sent out a box of dildos.
Far-right failed author Milo Yiannopoulos, a gay man who frequently espouses hateful rhetoric against racial and sexual minorities, is the march’s “mascot.”
One assumes he must be the loneliest gay man in America. MASCOT? WTF?
“The vice president of Super Happy Fun America told [CNN] that a law enforcement official later informed him that the substance was glitter.”
"Guys, quick, get over here…I think I know what this stuff is…might have seen it once or twice before I dropped out of Kindergarten…but we can’t admit it or everyone will think we’re gay!!!"
“Samson Racioppi, Super Happy Fun America’s interim treasurer, told TPM his letter led to a “big scene” after he called 911.”
Yeah…big scene he caused ON PURPOSE by not saying “Yes, 9-1-1? ASomeone sent me an envelope or two full of glitter.” BEcause the point was getting publicity and trying to get on Faux News and Breitbart as the victims of a domestic terrorism attack from gay people.
Samson Racioppi, Super Happy Fun America’s interim treasurer, told TPM his letter led to a “big scene” after he called 911. Complaining that the ordeal was a “huge inconvenience,” Racioppi said he didn’t find out the envelopes contained glitter until he read about it in the news.
“My neighbors are now probably pretty irritated with me,” he said while describing himself and his glittered associates as “victims.”
Racioppi lamented the “violence” they received at the hands of the anonymous glitter-sender.
