Sounds more like someone didn't want to do the parade and was looking

The one thing here Curtis is that very last bit - you added: "and
we see no harm in it" bringing it back to a few opinions against
a few others.
Better to just stick to: "but the majority of citizens enjoy the
parade."

individuals and groups so worried about hurting others feelings

want people to be chewing me out all the time, but an instance
like this? Parade organizers shouldn't have canceled the parade
to please one parent. That one parent can make their opinion
known, and sure, that's fine, but that doesn't mean their opinion
is final say.
