Christians Demand Ohio Town Cancel Its Pride Festival

The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports:

About 100 people squeezed into City Council chambers Monday night (April 15) to express their views on BBH Pride Fest, which is scheduled for June 8 on the City Hall campus. Most of those who spoke were against the LGBTQ+ event and scolded Broadview Heights officials for allowing it on city property. “We are Broadview Heights,” resident Robert Kilo told council. “We are not Lakewood. We are not Cleveland.”

“This city (Broadview Heights) was destined to be one that has family values that represent all of God’s people in truth, in righteousness and in order,” said Kilo. According to his LinkedIn page, Kilo is senior director of advancement at the Center for Christian Virtue in Columbus. “You try to cram this down our throats, we the people will have something to say and tonight is just the beginning,” Kilo said.

The city council is going to “review” their objections and possibly make changes to codes about events on public property. The above-cited Center For Christian Virtue is about to hold an event featuring Vivek Ramaswamy and anti-trans activist Riley Gaines. Of note, its director Robert “We Are Not Cleveland” Kilo has made two failed runs for mayor of Cleveland.

“This city was destined to be the one that has family values that represent all of God’s people”
