Trans rights ‘whistleblower’ attacked during Pride March as naked men on bicycles ride past children

A former transgender rights activist clashed with protesters in New York City, while naked men on bicycles past children in Seattle drew attention as hundreds of thousands of people across the country turned out for Pride Sunday.

The heated moment in NYC’s Washington Square Park shows a crowd getting physical with the woman holding a sign that says “Defend Female Sex Based Rights.”

She was quickly surrounded as the crowd began beating her sign from all directions as she yelled ‘stop f****** touching me’.

The woman, who identifies on social media as “LGBT Nonprofit Whistleblower” K Yang, had her plate violently ripped from her hands when she was hit on the head with a cup of water.

The annual Seattle Pride Parade was also punctuated by a startling scene, when completely naked adults with their genitals fully exposed riding bicycles past children.

The two Pride events drew tens of thousands of people who turned out on Sunday for marches, parades and rallies to mark the last weekend in June and the end of Pride month.

In Seattle, the explicit images posted by a Post Millennial staffer showed naked men with pride flags painted on their bodies riding down the street waving to crowds of people, many of them children.

Children and their parents can be seen on the sidelines, clapping and cheering for the naked gang.

It was some of the videos shared online on Sunday showing explicit behavior at some of the country’s Pride parades.

Gays Against Groomers was another target of the New York Pride parade.

The organization is described as gay against the sexualization, indoctrination and medicalization of children under the guise of LGBTQIA+.

A proud contestant was caught on video making rounds on social media, walking up to the organization’s truck and spat on it twice.

The group is now asking their social media followers for help in identifying the perpetrator.

Parades in New York, Chicago, Seattle and San Francisco were among the events held this year by about 400 Pride organizations in the US, many of which focused specifically on transgender rights.

New York’s vibrant paraders marched down Fifth Avenue to Greenwich Village, waving rainbow flags to commemorate the 1969 Stonewall uprising, where a police raid on a gay bar sparked days of protests and sparked the modern LGBTQ+ rights movement. initiated.

Poolitics were out in full force on Sunday after the NYPD said it was beefing up security in anticipation of the event.

Among the drag queens and activists, figures such as Mayor Eric Adams, Kathy Hochul and Chuck Schumer were spotted – three of the approximately 100,000 participants who took part in the parade’s main procession.

Always scheduled towards the end of June, the parade, as always, also commemorated the 1969 uprising by New York’s LGBTQ+ communities, known as the Stonewall Rebellion, while preaching the enduring importance of LGBTQ+ rights.

Sue Doster, co-chair of the city-funded Pride organization, explained earlier this week that the organizers were highlighting the rights of the trans community, which has recently been targeted by Republican legislation.

Doster said of city- and state-led campaigns trying to ban things like lingering story hours aimed at kids, “They’re attacking these people because they’re less likely to get up and fight back.

‘[This] therefore it is important that we all stand in solidarity and speak up when we see these injustices.”

As of noon on Wednesday, millions of people flocked to downtown Manhattan to declare their support for that and other related causes — as police urged locals to be wary of increased incidents of violence due to the increased LGBTQ population. climate.

While there were no specific threats to the Manhattan march by the time it began, an NYPD assessment noted that the event would take place “amid a heightened global threat” involving the gay and trans communities — and thus increased security.

The parade comes as several Pride flags and transgender Pride flags stationed around the city have been torn down and destroyed in recent weeks.

Patrol chief John Chell pointed to the success of the city’s previous Pride parade: “I’ve worked [it] last year. It was great that there were no incidents. We plan to hold the same event this year.”

In an internal statement circulated by the NYPD, police cited previous acts of mass violence, such as the shooting at Orlando’s Pulse nightclub, as reasons to step up security this time.

Adams has said hateful actions towards LGBTQ New Yorkers Sunday — or any other day — will not be tolerated.

While some people cheered at the parade, many were aware of the growing conservative backlash, including new laws banning gender-affirmative care for transgender children.

“I try not to be very political, but when it hits my community, I get very, very annoyed and very hurt,” said Ve Cinder, a 22-year-old transgender woman who traveled from Pennsylvania to participate in the largest Pride event in the United States. the country.

“I’m just scared for my future and for my trans siblings. I’m afraid of how this country has looked at human rights, basic human rights,” she said. “It’s crazy.”

In Chicago, 16-year-old Maisy McDonough painted rainbow colors over her eyes and on her face for her first Pride parade.

She told the Chicago Tribune she is excited to be “united” after a difficult year for the community.

“We really need the love of this parade,” she said.
