California town proposes ban on Pride, Black and women’s history celebrations

Far-right council members in Huntington Beach introduce agenda item to switch focus to US wars and America’s independence

The southern California city of Huntington Beach, a bastion of conservative voters, has made the move to block diverse monthlong celebrations of Black history, women’s history and Pride, in favor of observing the revolutionary and civil wars, California’s history and America’s independence.

An agenda item introduced on 19 December forbids any programming that pertains to previously established honorary celebrations for women, people of color and LGBTQ+ groups from taking place on city-owned property, including libraries, or of being featured in city communications such as social media posts, according to Natalie Moser, a city council member who voted against the action.

They tried it in response to BLM protests, buddy of mine busted their embarrassment of a leader’s pencil thin lips with a fresh knuckle sandwich when they threw a soda on him.

Ok, so long as you kill st. Patrick’s Day and Christmas parades, but I know they won’t because those are white celebrations.

Thanksgiving will be covered by American indpendence clause.

Even tho we all know it celebrates being dependant upon the natives.

“Since it is a seaside city, Huntington Beach has had tsunami warnings, storm surge (its pier has been rebuilt three times), sewage spills, tornadoes and waterspouts.”

“Large fractions of the settled delta are in soil liquefaction zones above known active faults. Most of the local faults are named after city streets.”

“Many residents (and even city hall) live within sight and sound of active oil extraction and drilling operations. These occasionally spew oil, causing expensive clean-ups. Large parts of the developed land have been contaminated by heavy metals from the water separated from oil.”

“The local oil has such extreme mercury contamination that metallic mercury is regularly drained from oil pipelines and equipment.”

There’s a reason lots of us don’t swim, nevermind fish, over there. Go farther north or south, HB is a sewage stain.
