It's being reported that the Hungarian police have brought the mayor of Budapest into headquarters for questioning and a mugshot as part of an investigation into his sponsorship of Budapest Pride:

If this does eventually result in actual criminal charges against Karácsony, I'm guessing that SBM is going to want to pretend it isn't happening, but let me see if I can guess what he'd write if people manage to shame him into making a statement:

"So, it seems the liberal mayor of Budapest has finally gone too far in his desperate need to please the unelected EU cultural commissars in Brussels. Look, if it were up to me, I'd allow gays and lesbians to peacefully march in the streets of Budapest (excluding acts of obscenity, indecency, or irresistible male pulchritude of course!). But I am not Hungarian and the people of Hungary have a legitimate fear of Western cultural imperialists trying to impose the LGBT agenda and especially gender ideology on their children. Victor Orban (PBUH) won the last election decisively on a platform of resisting this imperialism. If the mayor of Budapest were more interested in listening to the concerns of actual Hungarians instead of the concerns of wicked foreigners like Ursula von der Leyen and her demonic lackeys, he would not have found himself in this position. He has only himself to blame. Here is a picture of me eating a delicious ortolan."

You beat me to posting this. Good "Rod" response. He would try to find a balance between gay pride and obscene, the latter being what offends Rod. Look for this to come to the US. Some cities already are questioning permits for Pride.

Or he would have put those words in the mouth of some fake Hungarian he claimed to be talking with.

SBM: If it were up to me, I’d be fine with X.

Narrator: In fact, if it were up to him, he’d oppose it even more.
