Is that relevant?

If it is, I guess we could all take a minute and talk about how Israel has such a problem controlling violent homophobic religious extremists that Jerusalem Pride has needed a ratio of 1 armed guard for every 6 marchers.

The fact that Israel has a pride march at all kinda works against whatever point you're making.

Do you feel that needing 1 armed guard for every 6 marchers is indicative that it is incredibly safe to be out as queer in Jerusalem?

Who provides the armed guards, out of interest?

Why are the armed guards needed?

Who are they being protected from?

Do you think a pride march in the Gaza strip would be any safer?
