A few more months and the view of the Mansion will most probably no longer be visible due to the height of the planned warehouses.

<b><i> <span style="font-size: large;">Last year, our site highlighted the appearance of dozens of flags of the People's Republic of China (communist China) along the route of the annual Asian lunar year parade in downtown Flushing - <a href="https://georgetheatheist.blogspot.com/2019/02/flags-of-communist-china-infest.html">HERE.</a> This year's parade, January 25, 2020, saw a repeat appearance of these dozens of flags. Parade organizers last year claimed they did not know who was responsible for this. So we decided to investigate this year's parade. See photos and captions below for the results.</span></i></b><br />

<b><i>Who: The Columbia Association of the NYPD.</i></b><br />
<b><i>Where: In Elmhurst on the Queens Boulevard south service road between the new Georgia Diner and Grand Avenue.</i></b><br />
<b><i><span style="font-size: small;">When: Tuesday evening, November 26, 2019.</span></i></b><br />
<b><i>What: Columbia Association police membership needs convenient and difficult to find on-street parking.</i></b><br />
<b><i>Why: It seems that this membership has parking privileges that the rest of the citizenry does not. </i></b><br />
<b><i><u><br />If the Queens Boulevard bike lanes are kept clear, as seen in these photos, why can't all drivers then park on the sidewalk like these off-duty cops?</u></i></b><br />

<br /></div>
<div>
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;">From the American Declaration of Independence: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."</span></i></b></div>
<div>
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></i></b></div>
<div>
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;">It seems to me that being gay can be construed as pursuing one's "Happiness", no? It's therefore quite American. So why wasn't even one American flag in evidence celebrating this fact this past Sunday (6/2) at the Pride parade in Jackson Heights?</span></i></b></div>
<div>
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></i></b></div>
<div>
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;">Parade founder and current NYC Councilman Danny Dromm: this glaring omission is a public relations failure. Check out the following photos: the gay rainbow flag and now even the pink, blue, and white-striped transgender flag were seen all over the place. Even an Irish and Puerto Rican flag were seen prominently visible. And the Columbian flag is also frequently seen on the transgender saloon floats.</span></i></b></div>
<div>
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></i></b></div>
<div>
<b><i><span style="font-size: large;">So why was the Stars and Stripes missing? Is it because of parade participants' shame or ignorance? A supercilious attitude? Or what?</span></i></b></div>
