The St. Patrick's Day parades in both Boston and New York are subjects of controversy due to banning pro-GLBT signs from parade participation. New York Mayor, Bill de Blasio, and Boston Mayor, Marty Walsh boycotted their parades as did several usual sponsors. Can't we all just be inclusive and not give the pundits ammunition?
