Birmingham Mayor Larry Langford avoided a potential shit storm this weekend. Langford raised some eyebrows last week when he said he wouldn't sign a permit for the Alabama city's gay pride parade. Realizing the gays would go for the jugular, he has now backed down, but made sure to inform queer citizens that he does not approve of "that lifestyle". [Birmingham News via PFLAG]

"…As long as they are conducting themselves orderly, it's not an issue for me…"
And a disorderly conduct would be? Holding hands or kissing? What a lunatic. And the issue "isn't with him but with God"? Ha!!
Ok, what an idiot this guy is. Living in San Francisco I forget what the G&L community deals with around the country. It's so sad people are such bigots, and hello this guy is black, shouldn't he have some memories of being discriminated against? Shame on him!
As a latino growing up in a white neighborhood, I did, and I was gay to boot. Shame on him.
"It’s so sad people are such bigots, and hello this guy is black, shouldn’t he have some memories of being discriminated against? Shame on him!"
WarholsFactory, blacks have a very selective memory and looking forward to the future to them means to become the perpetrators of bigotry and whith such erase their past.
No matter where on this earth they are, blacks = homophobes.
"Blacks = homophobes"
Yawn.
Yes, and our white brethren have been SO friendly and open to gay people; for example (DOMA, Don't Ask Don't Tell, the unfortuante murder of Matthew Shephard and Lawrence King, etc.) Is it only the black communtiies fault that gay people are discriminated against? The black community has homophobes and so does every other community. However, there are plenty in the black community that support us. You sound like the hetero community. They take the actions of one gay man or woman and attribute it to the entire community. The black community is huge and very diverse. Let's get a new strategy people.
Probably an Obama supporter like James Meeks, and Donnie McClurkin.
Churchill have you escaped from the asylum again? Don't worry folks…he gets out every now and then. He's a sad case of a bigoted, right wing nutcase who has a single obsessesion with anything black. Unfortunately, there is no cure for him.
Our only hope is that we can prevent others from joining him in this demented state. Careful Dan, you may be getting too close.
Dan is already too close don't you see the name
DanGOP?????
Too bad the GOP don't like GAYS not even the elite ones but they do love your coins.
Wouldn't expect anything less from him. He's rounded out his stupidity.
But the kicker is, he's got clothing debts upwards of 40,000
Clothing debts of 40,000, all new teeth for 10,000…shady financial deals with friends that have the county on the verge of bankruptcy…praying in public in sack cloth to stop the murders. But as long as you love Jesus, everything is legit. The south is and always will be an ignorant backwater. Been in Birmingham 10 years and it only goes backward.
Don't worry, B'ham's future will be bright when we get our shiny new dome. No need to better equip the police force or actually repave the roads.
