Columbus Day Parade A Bust In Denver

The rainy Fall weather must have left the 2008 Columbus Day celebrants more in a mood to stay in their sheets this morning than to show up for the "parade" wearing them.

The 101st Columbus Day event was a total bust. No cavalry this year. No anti-abortion nutters with their hate speech rigs plastered with bloody fetuses and homophobic, misogynist slogans. In total, there were less than 30 big trucks, Hummers, and fire engines - a record low for George Vendeigna and his genocide celebrants.

Pitiful Convoy of Conquest, haters. Pitiful.

What, stock market got ya down?



Or are you just a bunch of sunny day "patriots" intimidated by a little rain and a lot of righteous, Indigenous outrage?



As usual, the Columbus Day paraders inspire no one to line the streets to watch their abomination.



Lost his pension in the stock market. Not exactly hittin' it big here, either.



OK. Some fans did turn out. Four to be precise.



No, genius. A-m-e-r-i-c-a spells America.



Heavy is the head that wears the crown on a dreary, foggy day.



The Columbus Day Parade Committee decided to stay in bed. Too cold for genocide. Brrrrr.



Libertarians. With a creepy, costumed Statue of Liberty...



Yeah, I'd be embarrassed too. She should hide her face in shame.



Damn proud of those Columbus magnets, ain't he? When not riding around in his RV, this gas-guzzling, white power race warrior lives in his parents' basement.



Gotta hurry around Civic Center park to catch the Convoy of Conquest on the other side before the pocket parade passes the protestors. Run or you'll miss it!



101 years of sociopathic settlers celebrating the racist theft of an entire continent.



Piggie requests The Police's "Don't Stand So Close to Me..."



Protestors head for the barricades to confront the Ugly Americans commemorating a slave-trading, Indian-killer.



A delegation of 13 Indigenous women tear down the barricades...



... and take a Treaty of Transformation to the hate speech organizers.



The confrontation is accomplished without arrests, and the Transform Columbus Day Alliance leaves the tedious losers to finish their creep show in front of no one.



Abolish Columbus Day, fools. Cuz now ya'll are just REALLY embarrassing yourselves.
