Before The Rush

Tomorrow marks the first day of June of 2022.
This means that in less than 24 hours, the start of Pride Month will officially begin. Businesses of all types will change their logos and signs, and many places will advertise that all are welcome.
While this is all exciting news to quite a few of you, for myself and others that are like-minded, this something I see that could be an invitation to a major potential problem.
With everything that has happened in this country, as well as around the world in recent times, the stress levels of many are at an all time high. And with the lack of adequate mental health care in this country, the risk of potential danger increases that much more. Having something that some folks don't agree with being plastered everywhere they look could cause them to reach the tipping point of sanity, and thus choose to bring harm to others, as well as property. This is something I personally fear will happen, and as a result, I will kindly decline any invitations to join in.
I am not against Pride Month, nor what it aims to provide, as I myself am bi. But to those who wish to attend and participate, I do hope that you all have a wonderful, and safe time. All I ask is that you be aware of your surroundings, as well as stay close to one another. Keep an eye out, and an open ear for any potential problems that may arise. And if things start to get out of hand, make sure to have a backup plan.
I wish everyone a happy, and safe Pride Month.
That's about it for now.
Take care all.
