Imagine seeing someone want to display colors to show other human beings that they are seen and loved…
… then reacting to that with irrational anger. Wanting everyone who displays these supporting colors to be fired from their jobs and vulnerable to homelessness.
Imagine what kind of person does that.
The kind of person who down voted your post, apparently.
I have a kite from the 90s that is a rainbow because I liked the color spectrum as a kid. If some jackass says I'm flying pride colors, then it will be a pride kite.
I bought my nephew a rainbow puzzle for Christmas, not because of any reason other than he likes puzzles and it would help him learn colors, my stepfather saw the rainbow and it looked like someone had pissed in his cheerios.
It was unintentional and completely GLORIOUS
I really do wish we had to imagine them, but we don't. I see these motherfuckers every day, and some of them are family. I'm extremely disappointed that this type of propaganda is able to work.
Please vote people who are not trying to gut our education programs even further, our entire way of life depends on it.
Bigoted patrons. I guarantee NPS didn’t come to the decision unprompted. They just want visitors to be respectful of nature and one another.
