Photos & Video: 2023 Bermuda Pride Parade
The 2023 Bermuda Pride Parade event was held today [Aug 26] in the City of Hamilton under a theme of “Homecoming.”
A spokesperson previously said, “The ‘Homecoming’ theme was chosen after extensive consultation with community members, both at in-person roundtables locally and via global online meetings, to ensure LGBTQ+ Bermudians have a voice in what’ll be the island’s biggest Pride celebration to date.”

Whose idea was it to redesign our flag ? A little disrespectful id say !!!
LOL.
The same arguments took place in the US, UK and Canada…decades ago.
It’s true, Bermuda is 50 years behind, in everything…even bigotry.
Saud, STOP posting under my profile!
This is classic oh the irony
LOL (original TM) The only real one.
LOL
Dunno, but it was gorgeous.
At least it gave you something to whine about!
So you finally admit that the LGBT+abc123!@# are actively tiring to oppress others!
You’re that weak?
Your government oppresses you….but you’re scared to death of 6 gay people?
Face it, you’re in the closet…come out, you’ll feel much better about yourself.
Nothing in my post would even remotely indicate that.
If you can only support your position by being dishonest, why continue to hold that position?
It’s kind of pathetic.
sure, sure whatever you say. Just remember one very important thing. One group here constantly steals symbols, changes meaning of words to try to sway opinions, advocate for laws like hate speech laws, create “safe spaces” for themselves (akin to claiming territory) and seem to want conflict aka oppression. So if you believe words are violence then you and your group are quite violent to everyone else and actions to follow them up. IMO backed by real events and not fictitious nooses, fake letters sent by the “victim” and the like.
LOL you really are very behind you know. They say you are somewhat intelligent try doing some research on these things and stop with the “I feel” arguments, it doesn’t stand in reality. You will find this out soon enough as this nonsense plays out.
Even the EU is starting to outlaw gender affirming care as it’s just a money maker for pharma as these people will be patients forever both on the pharmaceutical drugs that they will have to take for life, they are sterile, and will need mental help for ever. Go look up de-transitioning. But go ahead as long as it’s your children and not mine do whatever you want.
LOL oh and stop championing laws changes that have charged a small autistic child with hate speech laws as she though the female police officer was an “L” like her nana. Big Joe didn’t want to look it up so I did for him. Happy to back up everything I have stated here with real events any time but it is you I think that will not proceed in an honest debate about the issues and yes it does make you and your side of the argument look pathetic and a bit cultist like. Just saying.
LOL
“Big Joe didn’t want to look it up so I did for him”
I did find the article eventually. You must have seen it before Google!
Thankfully the higher-ups in the West Yorkshire Police saw sense and released the girl without charge.
There will always be people who are unable to exercise common sense or common decency.
Yes, yes but did you not see the point that the law is over reaching and opressive.
Generally it says if I dont like what you are saying you could be charged. Guess for you it would depend on weather you were on the recieving end of it. Maybe then you’ll understand why people like me would take issue with this type of speech limiting with the power of the law.
Seen it before Google….
Lol indeed yes thats was it…..
Or it could be that my google knows I read and watch a lot of world news and provides breaking stories to my feeds.
When someone’s position is insane, all they can use to defend it is insanity.
This post is nuts. False accusations, references to conversations they’ve had with other people, as though I was involved in them, Outright falsehoods, personal attacks while hiding behind a fake name, it’s all there.
Nothing they said in the first part is true. Or kind. Or fair.
It’s just lies used in a pathetic attempt to defame an historically oppressed group.
As always, I have to ask: if someone can’t defend their position without lying, why continue to hold it?
This person knows that they’re talking nonsense, deep down. But they’re here, hiding under their hood, posting garbage like this with their whole chest.
It’s pathetic.
Actually all of it is true. Do you need me to provide new story articles that support what I’ve said? Oh who are you talking too anyway? When having a conversation each side must talk to the other party, or are you tiring to convince others of your lunacy.
LOL Show where the post is nuts, where false accusations are, the lies you call them, and what personal attacks are you referring too?
Just to clarify your group does steal symbols (ie the flag referred to by the first commenter and the rainbow), .check…..change meanings of words lets just take racism (most people discussing these thing are old enough to remember the original meaning of racism, the power dynamic was added after to justify bad actors behavior) change meaning of words check. We have seen hate laws enacted, so check. Your group does infact whish for “safe spaces” (infact this was a major buzz word a few years ago most notable was two girls trying to kick two boys out of a student area in the usa not to mention the college that band white people for a day) so again check. You yourself stated in another thread that what someone else typed was violence so.. check. You believe that words are violence, that would also have me assume that you would justify violence to people who write or say things you don’t like as they deserved it. So check…. Your group believed Jessie Smolet which turned out to be a staged by Jessie himself, also the nascar driver and the “noose” which turned out to be a standard fixture for the garages of these cars to hoist parts… so check…The EU is looking closely at gender affirming care, it does sterilize the individual, and they will be patents forever. I can provide articles if necessary, but if you were a good actor in this discussion then you might be obliged to try to educate yourself on your own position as well don’t you think? Instead of blowing off people and insulting them do some investigating yourself as you may have information I do not or in this case vise versa.
LOL I’ll take the “Outright falsehoods, personal attacks” part as I thought I had read some writings from you at one point maybe on BIAW where I agreed with you and you seemed intelligent (falsehood I guess?) and personal attack this is the jewel as your whole speech has been look away from what this guy is saying, do not pay attention to this guy he lies, spreads falsehoods …etc etc look away he posted this “while hiding behind a fake name”
LOL when faced with facts you seem to be doing what you accuse others of. You are in a cult mate. Hope you get help soon.
Look at this load of nonsense they’ve written!
It’s all hate, disguised as “logic”.
They’re mad mad that I’m
Not engaging with them, but I refuse to, because I know a conversation with this person is futile. They believe this stuff they say and no explanation will change their mind.
Explaining that arguing against having safe spaces for people in danger is insane won’t do anything to change their mind, but it would cause them to change to subject. It always does.
The stuff they’re saying is all false and based on lies that they’ve been told to spread.
The sad part is that they post this hateful, hurtful, dangerous nonsense safe from accountability, hiding behind a fake name.
It’s pathetic when faceless bigots speak out against safe spaces… from the safe space of their hooded anonymity.
Bottom line is this:
Bermuda has loudly and proudly proclaimed that gay people are not welcome.
Removing and reducing already won rights, tells the rest of the world what Bermuda is all about.
Bermuda doesn’t like foreigners, so IB and tourism suffers. Bermudians don’t like to educate themselves, so we’re seeing a complete failure of the economy, education, and society in general.
Bermuda doesn’t have much to offer, You should take what you can get and be thankful.
When faced with facts dude runs away. The rest just looks like projectionon his part.
LOL
No ones running away.
You’re just not intelligent enough to have an adult conversation.
Like I said ain’t you got a WW3 to support.
LOL you are in a cult get help.
You seem to be showing your ignorance on this one.
How embarrassing for you.
LOL…snowflake.
And now even Canada has updated its travel advisory for the United States by warning LGBTQ+ people that some state laws may affect them on their travels
What laws would effect them? Did the artical or news you saw actually site a law that will be an issue with lgbq? These would be visitors right? Not residents.. so generally people who live in the area vote for people they want and should reflect the will of the people there no?
I note that Ms. Freeland failed to name one law that would inhibit the alphabet crew as “visitors” to a particular State, these are not people looking for work or taking up residence they are visitors.
LOL are the alphabet crew that week minded that Government and corporations need to invent things for them to be afraid of? Seems like a setup.
So-called “un-natural” sex acts are prohibited in a number of states and are punishable as crimes. That is what Ms Freeland was referring to.
I am surprised that that would need to be explicitly stated.
“I am surprised that that would need to be explicitly stated.”
Really? I’m not.
You’re dealing with an severely undereducated populace. This is a country that spent money to remove rights from a small group of Bermudians….because they don’t like them. This is not normal.
So what you are saying is that “visitors” to that state have to abide by it’s laws??!! say it isn’t so.
LOL
Yes, but how many people know which states have criminalised oral sex?
There is nowhere in the US where oral sex is a crime.
So you say.
The good people at Cornell Law School disagree with you.
No they don’t. Since Lawrence v Texas any such state laws have been unconstitutional to the extent they attempt to make gay sex acts illegal.
There have been test cases for other types of ‘unnatural acts’, which remain unlawful in many states, despite Lawrence v Texas.
You keep referencing the Cornell article, but you seem unable to understand it.
It is illegal in all 50 states when at least one person is underage.
It is illegal in all 50 states when a person is forced to perform the act.
Imagine if there were laws against bigots … you’d never be able to travel! LOL
“Imagine if there were laws against bigots”
Much more of America’s (and the world’s) population would be in prison
(bigot = a person who is obstinately or unreasonably attached to a belief, opinion, or faction, especially one who is prejudiced against or antagonistic towards a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular group)
…and Bermudians.
You mean like the majority of PLP MPs and Senators?
You forgot to add that the OBA didnt pass SSM when they ruled government. So are they not bigots or is your statement only directed at everyone accept WHITE bda folks.
Thank you for your racist invective
Another racist.
Go away racist, no one want to hear your ignorance…Karen.
You’re so infatuated with the OBA…is it because you realized too late that the plp is robbing you blind? LMFAO
But did they have to pass a law anyway ? All local experts deemed that under existing legislation (and laws) it was already legal.
It was the plp who fought to change it and went to the Privy Council !
They already know all this but when you remind them they express the R card at us.
Yes. The majority of True, Born Bermudians.
Clear enough?
Imagine if there were laws about impersonating a person online. That would be hilarious, right?
LMFAO
It’s like the internet is still new to Bermudians.
Following a USSC case in 2003, those state laws, to the extent they still exist in a few cases, are now inapplicable. For the past two decades such acts (assuming we’re talking about the same acts) have not been ‘punishable as crimes’.
So it is not clear what exactly Ms Freeland was referencing.
The good people at Cornell Law School disagree with you.
See https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/crime_against_nature
No, Cornell Law School agrees with me. You might want to read that article again.
“Crime against nature is an umbrella term encompassing sexual offenses that are deemed “unnatural” or “contrary to the order of nature.” Some jurisdictions have codified laws against the individual offenses.”
That was just last year.
With that said, I am not an expert in American jurisprudence. I will leave further debate to those who are.
Some jurisdictions have laws against unnatural sex acts, but since Lawrence v Texas those laws have no effect at all, to the extent they attempt to make gay sex illegal. None. It has been unconstitutional to outlaw gay sex in the US for 20 years.
If you were to actually take the time to read the Cornell article, what it says (correctly) is that some other ‘unnatural acts’ remain illegal in some states.
So Cornell law school agrees with me, and not with you.
So you say. The Cornell Law School article says “Although the Supreme Court in Lawrence struck down anti-sodomy laws, the crime against nature remains relevant.”
I can do no better than read what the article says.
As you are obviously an expert in American jurisprudence and I am not, I will leave this thread now.
No, you can’t just make false statements and then leave the thread. The unnatural acts which remain illegal are ones which were not considered by Lawrence v Texas. They include such things as sex with minors and bestiality; those are the types of things which remain illegal.
Your repeated suggestion that sodomy remains illegal is untrue. You seem to be willfully misreading the Cornell article.
Infact the more you read about this “travel warning” for Canadian “travelers”, it seems like they site no law at all and are just siding with Democrat politicians with fake outrage and political theater. They site things that would only effect “Travelers” if they where infact looking to take up residence then I could understand but people are visitors. Like I said this is cultish behavior. The truth is the laws, let’s say in Florida (most likely the state they are taking about) would not effect “visitors” unless they are drag queens (working there), intend on schooling their children there (do they have children?) or in some way are more than just visitors to the state.
LOL in a way they are looking for extra rights again. Maybe while they are there they can sue a cake shop or two. Wait till they include M.A.P.s into the alphabet. Your defense of that will be breath taking.
Calm yourself down.
Worry about your own podunk country, leave the big boys alone, you’re out of your league.
Don’t you have a world war to support.
They can’t mutilate perfectly healthy children. Oh the horror of it all.
“They can’t mutilate other people’s perfectly healthy children. Oh the horror of it all.”
LOL fix it for you.
You’re one of those “Thailand” tourists, aren’t you?
LOL, sick.
Just more victimhood narrative.
…from those who are scared of rainbows?
Or irrational fear of shops without rainbows?
Not at all.
Got a comprehension problem? Try to stay on topic.
Triggered.
LOL LOL LOL
You must be old. You don’t seem to follow anything very well.
Do you have any children around who could explain what’s happening here?
Are you having a stroke?
