Thank GOD Folsom ST East 2013 Canceled

Sodom & Gomorrah Tries Rape Angels

© May 28, 2013

The homosexual debauchery that has taken place for sixteen years was canceled this year due to road construction. Evidently the area for the annual Folsom Street East outdoor festival in which homosexuals gather together to participate with lewd vendors and homosexual sex acts including the leathers that homosexuals flaunt in their so-called pride efforts to be free to do whatever they want even though it is horrifically immoral was canceled because complaints were forthcoming from last year’s events. In recent years there has been a code of conduct which can read in this photo from 2010 which included no public sex acts; however with no real accountability that conduct policy was enforced very loosely:

• No public sexual activity

• No complete public nudity

• No exposure of genitals

• Alcohol is restricted to designated areas only, consumed by adults 21+

• Adequate space must be cleared and prior consent must be given by all participants in any demo or "scene."

• No demo or "scene" involving blood or other fluids will be permitted, even with consent.

Our contact also indicated that, although these limits represented NYC statutes, they were never enforced in the past. (From Folsom Street East Perversion Light 2010; By John R. Houk; SlantRight 2.0; 6/25/2010)

Now tell me this is not disgusting, right?!

The thing about finding out about the canceling of Folsom Street East 2013 is that luxury seems to be disenchanted with public homosexuality. The non-profit organization that is Folsom Street East simply tells us the cancellation is due to road construction as that is a mere glitch of the last sixteen years. The reality is luxurious buildings that are trendy hotels, restaurants and condos are encroaching on the fringe homosexual district of Manhattan. The sad thing most of the information about the canceled event I found via Google was from either pro-homosexual websites or Leftist critics of the cancellation.

Frankly I can’t vouch if this search engine availability is because Google is making sure pro-homosexual information occurs about Folsom Street East searches or if Pro-Family and Pro-Christian Moral Values organizations have dropped the ball on exploiting this story.

Shame on Google if they are skewing search engine results or shame on Pro-Family/Pro-Christian Moral Values organizations if they dropped the ball or shame on both if these thoughts on search engines and the Conservative-Christian Right are valid accusations.

Here are excerpts from two pro-homosexual sources on the closing of Folsom Street East (Hat Tip: Solid Snake):


For most of its 16 years, Folsom East was surrounded by industrial sites and strip clubs. But a recent construction boom brought residential buildings to the far-flung block between 10th and 11th avenues.

Named after the legendary Folsom Street Fair in San Francisco, the party usually draws thousands of visitors and raises money for LGBT-related charitable causes.

In addition to the +aRt condo, where residents already live, construction on the two-building, 710-unit Avalon West Chelsea is also underway, which will eventually bring a 31-story tower and 13-story building to the block.

The changing dynamic already affected last year's festival — when some residents of the +aRt building complained about being "embarrassed" by the kinky revelers, leading organizers to construct a sidewalk corridor allowing residents to get to their homes without walking through Folsom East itself.

The message on Folsom East's website assured fetish-lovers that the festival would return, though it was unclear if it would be on the same block.

"Thanks for 16 great years celebrating sexual freedom with the Folsom Street East Street Festival and we hope to see you back on the kinky streets of New York City in 2014!" the site reads.

A spokeswoman for Folsom East did not immediately respond to requests for comment. (Folsom East Fetish Festival Canceled Due to Construction; By Mathew Katz; DNAinfo New York; April 23, 2013 10:09 am)

With the twin blows yesterday of hearing that both Folsom Street East and Fleet Week have been cancelled this year (really, what are we going to do during June?) here’s a bit of a respite.

Fil Vocasek, the board chairmen of Folsom Street East, says that the organization is attempting to plan a number of fetish-themed events throughout the month of June which will take the form of smaller, indoor parties at various venues. The main event was cancelled this year due to construction on 28th Street.

“We’re in conversation with other groups and organizations to make sure there are a lot of fetish, kinky things going on in the month of June,” Vocasek tells DNAinfo.

Folsom Street East’s cancellation came after the closing of the popular fetish and leather bar, Rawhide last month. That site, however, may be staying true to it’s gay bar roots.

Though the advertisement outside of the old Rawhide on Eighth Avenue describes the “corner restaurant/retail space for lease,” the agent behind the listing suggests that another gay bar or club may be taking over the reins from the popular leather bar that closed March 30.

JD Sutro, a broker of Lee & Associates says “A lot of people know the history, everyone knows Rawhide, so we’ve gotten a lot of calls looking to open up another men’s bar or another restaurant that supplements the area.” (Folsom Street East planning smaller events throughout June in lieu of cancelled street fair; By Will Pulos; Next Magazine; April 25, 2013)

Below is an excerpt from a homosexual friendly author that provides more detail about the resident’s perspective on the Folsom Street East:

New Yorkers have mixed feelings about the High Line. Sure, it’s popular enough to make other cities jealous. But it’s kind of out of the way and, damningly, overrun by tourists. It’s also long been the object of ire from long-time residents suspicious of Bloombergian development, who find it a little too … manicured. It’s a project that makes New Yorkers face up to the question of what sort of city they want to live in — one that’s exciting, but little bit rougher around the edges, or one that’s safe but maybe a little bit tame? And that contrast has never been as stark as now, when High Line-related construction is conflicting with a kinky sex parade.

Jeremiah Moss, a blogger who’s solidly on the side of the older, rougher city, writes that the construction of fancy buildings in the High Line’s neighborhood has led to the cancellation of an old and dear ritual: the Folsom Street East street festival, “the largest outdoor fetish street festival on the easter coast, which brings thousands of sexy kinksters out onto the streets of New York City on a summer afternoon to celebrate sexual diversity and expression.”


Perhaps this is a sign that whatever kinky culture is left in New York has simply moved to a more outer borough. But perhaps shiny, modern cities can’t be safe for tourists, gentrifiers, and sexy kinksters at the same time. For efficiency reasons, it’s quite desirable for more people to live in cities, but it’s important to make sure there’s room not just for people who want to spend $4 on hibiscus ice pops but for people who’d rather spend their money on horse-tail buttplugs. (New York has to choose between its High Line and its kinky sex parades; By Sarah Laskow; Grist; 23 Apr 2013 12:18 PM)

You see the problem I have in relying on news sources that favor moral corruption is there is no perspective from the residents expanding into the 28th Street area of Manhattan where homosexual debaucheries take place. The Pro-Homo sources dare not mention that some-many-most of the residents’ view of homosexual acts as something more than inappropriate. Could some-many-most view open homosexuality as morally repugnant?

This is the point at which Pro-Family/Conservative-Christian groups have dropped the ball. Someone needs to investigate the percentage of the complaining residents are willing to eschew political correctness and let the world know they have a Christian Moral conflict with the homosexual lifestyle in their front and backyard. Send the Catholic pro-morality investigators to the Catholics and send the Protestant pro-morality investigators to the Protestants. OR here is a true ecumenical idea: This is a time for pro-morality Catholics and Protestants can come together on to investigate AND to promote Christian Morality in the area.

I say “true ecumenical” because the current ecumenical movement tends to be Liberal factions of Catholic, Eastern Orthodox and Protestants unifying on a social activism agenda which tends to be pro-homosexual and to be neutering the Word of God in which Christ’s Divinity, Crucifixion and Sonship are theologically questioned because the Bible does not line up with Modernist philosophy which leans toward secularizing society and abandoning the Creator of all that exists as presented in the Holy Bible. A true ecumenism would be Bible Believing Christians (or on the Catholic-Eastern Orthodox side the Conservative Believing traditionalists) can stand together to jointly affirm Christian Morality.

Folsom Street East Perversion Light 2010

If heterosexuals had outdoor festivals in the open outdoor public that mirrored the same level of debauchery that occurs at Folsom Street homosexual debaucheries, the public outcry would be horrendous. With a little full disclosure there is a festival in which open debauchery occurs on an annual basis and that festival is the notorious Mardi Gras of New Orleans, LA. As bad as Mardi Gras can get (hetero and homo alike) it is not even close to the scale of the homosexual Folsom Street debaucheries that happen in public.

The Folsom Street homosexual gig originated in San Francisco: There the street exists that has given its infamous name to the outdoor homosexual debauchery. As far as I know by the limited looking around I purposely avoid, the two biggest Folsom Street debaucheries are the city of origination in San Francisco and in New York City. In NYC it is called Folsom Street East.

I have the most of Folsom Street East because I have a friend that is willing and has the courage to clandestinely walk the pocket of moral evil documenting the disgusting practices that happen at Folsom Street East. This friend has posted some of his video feeds on YouTube over the years in an attempt to expose the goings on to elucidate a public outcry. As it was to be expected YouTube has pulled most of those videos shortly after they were uploaded. Why? Was YouTube performing a nefarious conspiracy to hide from the public what happens at Folsom Street East? Of course it is possible, but let’s give YouTube the benefit of the doubt. What happens at Folsom Street East is explicit sexual debauchery. To give YouTube a little credit the videos were removed for breaching the YouTube terms of usage.

Here is a brief history of links which I post the Folsom Street East debauchery:

The report on Folsom Street East was aptly accomplished by Randy Sly writing for Catholic Online. Incidentally Randy graciously mentions an unnamed contact who I suspect is none other than my New York City friend who goes by the nom de plume Solid Snake.

Another Year of Folsom Street East in New York - Another Year of Perversion on Parade

By Randy Sly

Catholic Online


The Big Apple displays some rotting parts

You wouldn't know it from the mainstream media in New York City, but last Sunday (which was also Father's Day) Folsom Street East - "NYC's premiere sado/masochist-leather-fetish themed street festival" - took place on 23rd Street between 10th and 11th Avenues in Manhattan. Participants in Folsom Street East did not lack for ways to express themselves, remaining just shy of the full-nudity mark, wearing sadomasochistic paraphernalia or by the messages on their t-shirts.

WASHINGTON, DC (Catholic Online) - You wouldn't know it from the mainstream media in New York City, but last Sunday (which was also Father's Day) Folsom Street East - "NYC's premiere sado/masochist-leather-fetish themed street festival" - took place on 23rd Street between 10th and 11th Avenues in Manhattan.


While given a pass by the media, the East Coast version of San Francisco's Folsom Street Fair, now in its 14th year, showcased sexual perversion of every kind for the crowds of enthusiasts and curious onlookers that visit the six-hour event.


While estimates in previous years put the crowd in the thousands, due to intermittent rain and thunderstorms, this year's numbers were significantly smaller.


A New York volunteer, who has gone to the event in the past to gather evidence for Americans For Truth About Homosexuality (AFTAH) and other groups, told Catholic Online that the organizers published some limits for behavior this year, which included:



    • No public sexual activity

    • No complete public nudity

    • No exposure of genitals

    • Alcohol is restricted to designated areas only, consumed by adults 21+

    • Adequate space must be cleared and prior consent must be given by all participants in any demo or "scene."

    • No demo or "scene" involving blood or other fluids will be permitted, even with consent.


Our contact also indicated that, although these limits represented NYC statutes, they were never enforced in the past.


Last year, for example, one event featured a man with genitals exposed, tied to a St. Andrew's cross, being "electro-tortured" by another man wielding a remote control device.


When AFTAH questioned police after last year's event, authorities indicated that they normally do not monitor private "block parties" but, due to citizen complaints, they will be stricter in issuing a permit to "Folsom Street East" organizers next year.


This year we received an quick email from the contact just after the event stating, "It was tame today, I mean tame. (For the) majority of it, no cops around and NO nudity. Shocking, I know."


Even with published restrictions seemingly being followed, the reports we also received indicated that the displays and behavior of the exhibitors and many attendees still demonstrated a level of depravity the average human being could never imagine.


Participants in Folsom Street East don't seem to lack for ways to express themselves, remaining just shy of the full-nudity mark, wearing sadomasochistic paraphernalia and by displaying perverted messages on their t-shirts.


When reporting on this event, so dedicated to debauchery, I was reminded of the verses from the first chapter of St. Paul's letter to the Romans, where he wrote,


"Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man-and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.


"Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.


"For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due."(Romans 1:22-27)



Later, the apostle puts the spotlight on hope, the only hope upon which anyone caught in sin can rely.


"For when you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness. What fruit did you have then in the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death. But now having been set free from sin, and having become slaves of God, you have your fruit to holiness, and the end, everlasting life. For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 6:20-23)



As our culture continues to sink more deeply into sin, our only hope then is Christ and His Church. Regarding the latter, our Lord is ruthlessly purging her of those base things and immoral acts which lie hidden beneath the surface, that as the spotless bride she might provide the moral compass needed in this world.


Folsom Street East is only one of many exhibitions worldwide that underscore the serious spiritual climate in which we live. So, let's pray as we do at the end of Morning and Evening Prayer, "May the Lord bless us, protect us from all evil and bring us to everlasting life."

NYC Folsom Street Homosexual Perversion


Blog Editor: Google AdSense was displeased that I showed a journalistic picture of the perversion that goes on outside in PUBLIC. I have to wonder if the same reasoning is imposed on a pro-homosexual website with AdSense? I DOUBT IT! But I have complied with the censorship. JRH 11/4/15

It is getting close to that time of the year when the Mainstream Media (MSM) gives perverted public homosexual activity a pass. I posted roughly last year about the Folsom Street Party East (NYC) that runs their version of the same perversion that takes place annually in San Francisco. The San Francisco version seems to be the originator of this public immorality.

I was alerted last year by a person that goes by the moniker of Solid Snake who has made a career of homosexual perversion in the New York City area. He again alerted me that the 2010 Gay-zebo affair was coming up. According to the Folsom Street East website this year’s annual perversion takes place June 20, 2010.

SN has caught the interest of Peter Labarbera of the Americans For Truth About Homosexuality (AFTAH) who has posted some of the edited pictures of the edited video shot by SN at last year’s ghastly immoral public indecency. Even though the videos were edited, YouTube has removed them for terms violation which is code for too perverted for everyone to watch them.

Amazingly homosexual blogging activist - Joe.My.God. – has termed LaBarbera as “Porno Pete” and has claimed or at least insinuated that public displays of perversions did not occur at Folsom Street East. The link I provided has several posts on Folsom Street East grouped together. Here are some excerpts from Joe.My.God.:

Inspired by San Francisco's legendary Folsom Street Fair, FSE was founded in 1997 by former Gay Male S/M Activists (GMSMA) chair John Weis and a cohort of similarly-minded New York City leathermen. “I thought that having a fun day in the sun for the SM/leather community celebrating our diversity would go a long way in helping dispel myths and stereotypes,” said Weis. “We saw FSE as important opportunity for visibility, outreach and activism. (Joe quoting Folsom dude)

You might recall that last year Porno Pete LaBarbera sent a hidden camera crew to the fair and posted photos and videos of unsuspecting attendees. He also made the typically ridiculous claim that "hundreds of fully nude men" roamed Chelsea's West 28th street engaging in "sadistic homosexual" acts in "violation of New York City's lewdness laws." But as you can see from the photo below, it was a cool and overcast day and hardly anybody so much as doffed their shirt, much less walked around naked. Let's hope for warmer weather this year!
(Joe calling LaBarbera a liar)


Here is a YouTube video of a Folsom 2007 event that is amazingly still on YouTube (although I suspect after some hits from normal people will also be removed as lewd).

Here is a FilesTube search link to global Folsom Street parties displaying the depravity of homosexual perversion.

I wonder if Joe.My.God places a descriptive appellation to the Catholic Church. Below is a News piece from Catholic Online.

Perversion on Parade at New York’s Folsom Street East Festival
By Randy Sly
6/26/2009

Immorality on display in New York City last Sunday in 'massive pagan pansexual street party'.


WASHINGTON (Catholic Online) – Since 1997, New York City has turned a blind eye toward anti-nudity and anti-lewdness laws that govern life in the Big Apple as well as the state during the Folsom Street East festival (FSE). This year’s even took place on Sunday, June 21, which, ironically is also Father’s Day.


Described on its website as “NYC’s premiere sado/masochist-leather-fetish themed street festival,” the event attracts approximately 10,000 visitors annually. They claim that this is the largest outdoor event of its kind east of the Mississippi.


The FSE press release stated that “the street will once again be lined with some 50 community groups and vendors that appeal to the LGBT and the kink communities and it will be filled with mobs of leatherclad musclehunks. A one-stop shop for leather gear, porn, and toys. And no throw pillow, magic mops, or tube socks – promise!”


The organization Americans for Truth about Homosexuality (AFTAH) obtained footage of this year’s event, which included scenes of an “electro-torture” demonstration where a half-naked man was strapped to a cross while electric current shocks were sent through his body.


Begun by the Gay Male S/M Activists (GMSMA), Folsom Street East is a copy of the huge Folsom Street Festival held in Nancy Pelosi’s district of San Francisco which draws as many as 100,000 people.


Exhibits included nude and partially nude individuals who were involved in demonstrations of various forms of perverse behaviors. AFTAH’s anonymous source at FSE reported that “he saw hundreds of men walking around with their genitals and buttocks fully exposed.”


Police were observed around the perimeter of the event, but no police presence or law enforcement regarding public lewdness was observed.


AFTAH’s article on the event commented, “Ironically, proceeds from the ‘Folsom East’ event (attendees paid $10 to get in) go to the New York City Gay & Lesbian Anti-Violence Project (AVP), according to the Folsom East website. In other words, ‘consensual’ sexual violence is celebrated and tolerated by the same movement that attempts to link mainstream, faith-based pro-family organizations to acts of violence targeting homosexuals.


Linda Harvey, President of Mission America, attended the larger 2008 event in San Francisco along with Peter LaBarbera, President of AFTAH. She described it as a "massive pagan pansexual street party, complete with instances of full nudity, homosexuality and crowds gathered around people being whipped for sado-masochistic pleasure."


In the 1960’s, “how low can you go” was a phrase from a popular song about the Limbo dance. Last Sunday, that phrase aptly describes the immorality displayed on 28th Street between 10th and 11th Avenues in New York, New York.


Fortunately a larger media outlet in the New York Post also published a story (although much smaller) about last year’s homosexual perversion in New York City.

OUTCRY OVER NUDE BONDAGE BLOCK PARTY

By PHILIP MESSING
Last Updated: 10:40 AM, June 29, 2009



The NYPD issued a parade permit for a Chelsea block party that featured fetish freaks parading nude, fondling each other and whipping the bare buttocks of attendees -- all captured on video for the Internet.

The bawdy bacchanal June 21 on West 28 Street, between 10th and 11th avenues, drew several thousand who paid $10 each to attend, sources said.

Some of what took place was clearly XXX-rated.

Two YouTube videos show naked men parading down the street, some fondling each other's genitals.

One man -- nude except for a cap and shoes -- can be seen bound to a post and bent over as his bare butt is whipped.

Another shows a crowd around a man wearing leather chaps with his hands bound above him while his genitals are restrained.

Another tattooed man seems to turn a dial on a remote-control that causes him to groan.

Asked about their handling of what occurred, a NYPD spokesman replied, "We were aware of the event and did not get any complaints during the event."


The American Family Association of New York has finally stepped up to the plate and has sent complaining protest letters to Mayor Bloomberg and the New York Attorney General. Below is the Bloomberg letter (I have the AG letter also but is very similar and not in need of the repetitiveness) from AFA-NY President Frank J. Russo, Jr.

Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg
City Hall
New York, NY 10007
Fax: 212-312-0700
June 11, 2010

Dear Mayor Bloomberg:


I am writing to you as President of the American Family Association of New York regarding an upcoming “Nude Bondage Block Party” that will take place on June 20, 2010 in New York City.

A parade permit was issued for this Chelsea area block party last year at which time several thousand people paid $10 each to attend, according to the NY Post (NY Post, Philip Messing, June 29, 2009). At this event there were, according to the NY Post, “fetish freaks parading nude, fondling each other and whipping the bare buttocks of attendees.” All of this was captured on video for the internet, according to the NY Post article. The event took place on West 28th Street between 10th & 11th Avenues on June 21, 2009. At the event, which took place on public streets in Manhattan, there were “naked men parading down the street, some fondling each other’s genitals. One man, nude except for a cap & shoes, could be seen bound to a post and bent over as his bare butt was whipped. Another man was wearing leather chaps with his hands bound above him while his genitals were restrained.” All of this was reported in the NY Post article written by Philip Messing on June 29, 2009.

Surprisingly, according to the NY Post, the New York City Police Department failed to take any actions with regard to these clearly offensive public acts of indecency and/or obscenity, even though they were aware of what was occurring. It is my understanding (from www.folsomstreeteast.org) that a repeat of this event is set for June 20, 2010.

The purpose of this letter is to ask you as Mayor of New York City to take appropriate actions beforehand to prevent a reoccurrence of similar acts later this month. I am making this request in view of the utter failure of New York City Police Department last year to take the necessary corrective actions. Please let me know what you can and will do.

Respectfully,

Frank J. Russo, Jr.
President- AFA of NY


Since tourism is a significant portion of New York City’s economy it would be a fantastic think to use Russo’s address to Mayor Bloomberg and inundate him with protest letters.

Here are several methods to contact Mayor Bloomberg courtesy of the NYC Bloomberg government webpage:

You may contact me directly by writing, calling, faxing or e-mailing:

Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg
City Hall
New York, NY 10007
PHONE 311 (or 212-NEW-YORK outside NYC)

FAX (212) 312-0700

E-MAIL:
http://www.nyc.gov/html/mail/html/mayor.html

I hope you will visit NYC.gov regularly as we continue to update the site with information about new happenings throughout New York City.

Sincerely,
Michael R. Bloomberg
