If I was a homophobe, I don't think gay people parading where I live would give me a very positive image of such people.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that was their intention for arranging this parade.

Yup, therefore this isn't to show that gay people are people too, but to be in their face about it. Which is fine I guess, but wouldn't be what I would do to spread gay awareness.

I think the idea is to provoke them into making a public scene, that way people will finally stand up to their homophobic ways. I think that is better than hiding it.

Yeah, in the context of a gay pride parade I see your point, but thats historically what parades like this aimed to do.
