    I am 100% OK with this and hope others replicate.

    Check out the media though: the law very clearly identifies "anY
    political, social, ... whatever. But whoever wrote this article made it
    into an anti-gay article.

    This is why I am tired of the media.

    They did the same in NYC with the St. Patrick's Day parade for years.
    The Hibernians policy was clearly no group could march under its' own
    banner. The NYT made the issue an anti-gay one for years. Today, the gay community is welcome to march. Unfortunately hardly anyone ever shows up
    to watch. It's like the Israeli Day parade; there are more people
    marching than watching.
