Okay, some of you have probably seen this already. I actually live in Central Arkansas, thirty minutes away from where the parade took place.

I never heard about this incident until yesterday. If our local media covered it before now, they must have done a pretty lame job. Instead, the only thing the media kept talking about re: the parade was how two radio personalities were in trouble for passing out gay porn dvds.

Greenbrier Man Pleads Not Guilty To Spreading Manure On Street Before Gay Pride Parade
( Air Date: 8/2/2004 )
A Greenbrier cattle farmer accused of
dumping manure along the route of a gay pride parade in Conway
plead not guilty to a charge of misdemeanor harassment today.
A judge decided that bond was not necessary for 35-year-old
Wesley Bono of Greenbrier, who turned himself in when police issued
a warrant for his arrest for the June incident.
A trial is set for September 16th in Conway district court.
Bono said that he was trying to make a point and express his
right to protest. More than six thousand pounds of manure was found
the morning of the parade route. Bono said that the incident was
not a hate crime or any crime at all. If Bono is found guilty he
faces community service or paying for clean up costs.
