Boise and Salt Lake City thwart GOP anti gay measures and stand up for American values

[Tommy Tainant]

Salt Lake City and Boise adopt official pride flags to skirt Republican bans

New emblems approved by city councils in defiance of bans on ‘unofficial flags’ on government property

www.theguardian.com

The new flags were a direct reaction to Utah’s House Bill 77, which narrowed the list of allowable flags to the state flag, the US flag, Olympic and Paralympic flags, official college flags or tribal flags, a city or county flag and military flags. State and local governments could be fined $500 a day for flying other unofficial flags.

The good people in these cities just walked around the wall of hate.
Its incredible that elected politicians spend so much time trying to erase a section of their electorate. Its not as if they have nothing useful to do.
If they want to live in Russia or Hungary maybe they should move there and leave decent people to live their lives.

Queers are not an American value.

Good grief

I would have no problem with a restriction over all flags outside of a US flag and a state flag. People get carried away with this stuff.

That noted, it's interesting this happened in Utah. Also it shows that you simply can not legislate society from moving forward.

People will find a way to do what they do.

Silly ass shit

Most of the progress for gay folk has come from the US. Be proud of that.

Why do they need a flag exactly?

Of course you would be a cheerleader for your fellow gays.

Why do they need a flag exactly?

Why do they need to ban it ?

 

[Blaster]

Why do they need to ban it ?

Why not?

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Why do they need to ban it ?

It has never been banned.

I don't understand why the practitioners of Sodomy need a flag to celebrate their preference to take it in the keister.

Why don't they keep their sexual practices confidential, and tell people only on a 'need to know" basis? The vast majority of Americans really don't need to know about someone's gaiety.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

The mayor and city council of Boise have ensured they will all be replaced next election.

 

[Zincwarrior]

So they changed their official metro flags? Interesting.
I would not think of Salt Lake City as progressive.

Agreed. I didn't know cities had flags. I now want where I live to adopt this flag

The Homo Agenda are Satanic values, not American values.

It's good when the potential violators self-identify.

No wonder we kicked those sorry asses out of the colonies. The country formerly known as England thinks American values include men playing in women's sports and the castration of youngsters without parental permission.

Queers are not an American value.

Freedom, however, is an American value. Much to your chagrin.

What does freedom have to do with faggotry?

Sure people are “free” to do it, it doesn’t make it right. It’s a disgusting act, an abomination to God.

What on earth does the state flying a flag promoting homosexuality and pedo groomers have to do with freedom? Nothing. It’s just using state resources to promote a satanic agenda.

 

[dblack]

What does freedom have to do with faggotry?

It has to do with pretty much anything people want to ban because it makes them uncomfortable. Or because their god told them to.
