I saw this a lot as a kid growing up in New Orleans. During Mardi Gras it is almost impossible to know every parade route because of the sheer number of them. And I don't mean the big ones like Rex, Bacchus and Endymion. You have all these smaller parades that get approved on a whim. So you end up seeing things you never asked to see: like trannies feeling up kids in pride parades and them daring you to say anything about it.

This was before cops started regularly escorting parades on horseback. Now they're everywhere but this shit still goes on since they turn a blind eye to save their jobs. Disgraceful.
