Democrats March In Algonquin Founders Day Parade

McHenry County Democrats may have refused to march in the Crystal Lake Gala’s 4th of July Parade, but it had no qualms in Algonquin.

Local Democrats withdrew from the Crystal Lake parade when the Gala Parade Committee banned the McHenry County Peace Group.

The Democrats took offense at the Gala’s censorship of speech, based on content and didn’t march in Crystal Lake.

The Peace Group probably got more mileage out of parking its Statute of Liberty float on the parade route than it would have by towing it the length of Dole Avenue.

No similar problem raised its head for Democrats in Algonquin Founders Day Parade because the Peace Group did not participate.
