A veterans organization is calling out a "sickening" double standard, telling "Fox & Friends" on Monday, that legal action may be forthcoming after New York City denied a permit for a Memorial Day parade. James Haynes III, CEO of United Staten Island Veterans Organization Inc., and his attorney Brendan Lantry pointed out that last week’s Cannabis Parade got the green light from the city. Haynes told host Brian Kilmeade on Monday that he was shocked that the city did not grant permits for the Memorial Day Parade, but allowed the Cannabis Parade to carry on. "They [New York City officials] say you can do a protest, but you can't do a parade," he added. "So we want those kids to see real-life history, from their borough Staten Island marching down Forest Avenue."
