    No cops at Pride

    Damn, if only. Houston’s Pride Parade looks like someone threw rainbow colors on a fucking North Korean military display.

    We’ve got all the oversized MRAP heavy armored vehicles grinding up the pavement under colorful banners. We’ve got the horse cops tacked out in rainbow kit. We’ve got those big armored personal carriers done up bright. Police drones and helicopters. Fleets of police SUVs. If the HPD had a long range ballistic missile, we’d know about it because it would be in the damned Pride parade.
