I see, according to the Courier, that hundreds of people have signed a petition protesting against the proposed first Inverness Gay Pride parade.
I would be interested to hear from any of them just what they find so objectionable about people celebrating diversity in a colourful and entertaining way without causing any harm to anyone else whatsoever.
I am deeply ashamed of some of my fellow Invernesdians. I trust, however, that it is only a minority and that the vast majority will turn out to support the event and join the fun which will, after all, generate thousands of pounds, whether pink or otherwise, for local businesses.
