Normally parades require a permit as the permit identifies the responsible organization and allows for lawful disregard of stop signs and temporary use of city streets. Local authorities are aware of the event and may want to be present.

My major concern is for the safety of those in the parade and any bystanders. Based on what I saw in the recent parade video clip, I could easily anticipate the potential for tempers to get out of control and possibly a physical confrontation.
Additionally, it appeared folks were standing in front of the golf carts. What if the driver accidentally stepped on the accelerator pedal? (and I do mean accidentally as I know it would not be done intentionally).

I fully support the concept of parades and those with different views, please do not get me wrong. I just don't want to see one of our neighbors having a life altering event.
If you agree, I suggest you contact the local authorities to show you support.

This is not intended to be a negative post, but a post of support for orderly and safe parades.

Your thoughts???
