..."Drag is the centuries-long practice of dressing in exaggerated makeup and clothing of the opposite sex, most commonly used in theater and other stage performances. It’s often on display during Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer Pride Month events, held worldwide each June to honor the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in New York that served as a catalyst for the gay rights movement. Pride Month also celebrates the community’s contributions and remembers those killed in hate crimes or by HIV/AIDS.
Military organizations have started hosting Pride events in the decade since the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy banning openly gay service members ended.
This year, Ricketts wrote in the petition, the 86th Mission Support Group commander canceled all Pride events unless they are rebranded without drag queens."...

JOE.? I'm Almost 78 Years Of Age.
If I Happen To KILL Someone & Get A Life Sentence,
That Could Wind Up Being An Over-Night-Stay Pajama Party.
Hence, I Speak My Mind Then look Out The Bay Window
For The Cop Cars To Pull Up & Grab My Jammies.
Vuk'Em. ! I May See God DECADES Before You Do...
Right After I Come Up From The Other Place...
