Could this parade happen in say, Buffalo?

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. - The annual Gay Pride Parade was Sunday and by all news account a wild, but unifying time, for the city.

Mayor Gavin Newsom, no stranger to where the votes are in San Francisco, was part of the parade, the centerpiece of the tourist industry for the day in a city that loves its tourists.

This particular item caught my eye because the San Francisco Chronicle added video to their website to tell the story - a neat addition to the photos. The Chron has done this before, but this time the video works easily and the videographer did a nice job of editing to tell the story.

You can see the video here, if your software will cooperate:

  • San Francisco is a great city, because it does allow just about anything, provided that anything doesn't hurt someone else.

    Can we say the same thing about Buffalo or Cleveland or ?

    Hmmmm...
