Manure tossed on Arkansas gay parade route

We told you yesterday about the pride parade in Conway, Arkansas. What we didn't know is that organizers of the gay pride parade awoke to find their parade route covered in cow manure. Police said the dump-truck load was spread at about 6:30 a.m. and authorities are investigating and criminal mischief and littering charges could be filed. City workers scooped and rinsed the manure from the route and it was cleaned up in time for the event. The parade attracted about 275 marchers in the town of 26,000 north of Little Rock. Protesters along the route heckled the marchers and held signs such as "Sodomy is a Sin that God forgives If We Repent."
