I am speak of what happening last February 2012.  The metro rainbow of the deaf were host at deaf hall for Mardi Gras to collect for fund raising.  
One thing, I am disappoints with people who did not appears and not even bother to bring their kids!  Why?  There is game for kids to play.  That made the person pissed off.  He tryed to set up the game and waste his time for action with balloons and pick the ducks.  All toys are waste and not use..what they do with them?
That go to me is social with deaf gay.   Many of you know how much parents protect of their kids and cherish for them.   Gay is not child molestation, abuser, or sex offender. They are not,  they are parents to their kids too.  Their kids grow up beautiful people like us.   It made me disappears with people are not respect gay, black, or obese. 
How sad!
