Man on the Street
This Week’s Question:
Are you excited for PRIDEfest?
Name: Katelyn Horner
Major: Business Management
“I, myself, am a pansexual person, so I’m really excited for this event to happen. I’m going to be participating, and I’m going to be having a lot of fun doing that. I hope people embrace it. I would love for people to be involved and do more, but I know also that forcing someone isn’t the best way to do something.”
Name: Allan Smith
Major: Mechanical Engineer
“I did not know one was going on until you told me about it just now. Personally, I don’t have any feelings or personal attachment to it. It is what it is, and it’s cool that they’re having it. It’s important in the sense that people feel like they belong. Kingsville is a small town, and things like that only really happen in the big cities. It will really benefit the people of that community”
Name: Hailey Sauceda
Major: Fashion Merchandise
“I don’t think I’ll be attending, but I am by no means against them having one. I believe that this is an important event, because everyone deserves to have their voices heard. Everyone is important and everyone matters. It’s really cool that they get to have pride.”
Name: Isaiah Dennis
Major: Nutrition
“I don’t have anything against gays or lesbians. It’s important for them in a way, but I’m a Christian and I don’t believe that it’s right. Of course, the Bible says that gays and lesbians aren’t right. I’m not one to judge, but that’s just how I feel.”
