PRIDE PROTESTER’S GAY SEX CARTOON NOW AVAILABLE ON A HILARIOUS T-SHIRT
Columbus, OH: During the Pride parade Saturday, an unidentified protester held up a sign depicting two men having sex, captioned: “No Pride.” Rather than purely offensive, many of the parade attendees found the sign unintentionally humorous.
A local business owner, Basil Argento, happened to be watching the parade directly across from the protest with his boyfriend and two friends. “We thought it was hilarious,” Basil said. “I was imagining this guy alone in his room, creating this masterpiece. You have to admit that is a funny thing for a straight guy to draw.”
As he returned home from the parade, Basil was inspired to create a T-shirt poking fun at the protester’s message. The finished design exclaims “PRIDE” in handwriting similar to the sign, along with a similar rendering of a gay sex act, in rainbow colors.
“I’m sure that guy would be horrified to find that the community is giving his artistic skills such a grand reception,” Basil said. “Which makes it even funnier.”
The T-shirts are available at Hypercandy.com.
