Shouldn’t the gay flag be pink and brown?
where was the heterosexual flag. Take the gayfag flag and shove it.
How do you tell? Do homosexuals go through some special ritual when they die? And do they really need their own flag—were they really fighting for sodomy all this time?
“I had with me a Gay Pride Flag, one that was to memorialize all of this country’s gays and lesbians who had died in the line of duty. I wanted to drape it over my shoulders as a quiet remembrance. “
You know, seriously cant they just f*ck off with this gay pride s*it for one day! They just cant keep it in their pants!
Those people would like their service remembered, not having some moron activist get people to think about whom they liked to get it on with.
This was a day to honor those who fell in service to this Country. Not to honor homosexuals! Keep that crap in the closet, lest I put you in there with it!
There is no proof that a gay or lesbian has ever been killed in the service of Our country.
And if they did serve Our country and die, all their honors previously bestowed upon them should be stripped as they were illegitimate in their service to our country, not unlike a communist spy.
If a member of the US Armed Forces dies in a war, isn’t he/she already memorialized as a hero on Memorial Day?
Ok your gay. Ok you served. Ok. But leave your penis at home.
I find it bizarre that some people want to be known first for their sexual orientation before any other attribute of their character or service to others. If I liked to have sex with sheep and goats, what would go on in my mind before I would want that fact to take priority over whether I was honest, trustworthy, had a great sense of humor, loved to learn, or any other attribute?
Of the members of my household who have enlisted, they did not do it so sodomites would be free to enjoy their sexual practices. In fact, had they known that this would be a future factor in the land of the free, how many of the Greatest Generation have enlisted and risked their lives? Very few. More important, how many of the young men and women in the future are going to be willing to give their lives so sodomites are free to indoctrinate young public school children that same-sex marriage is “normal”?
On Memorial day we honor our dead not their sexuality.
Since the queers are so hot to be in the military, put them all in the same unit, and send it to the fiercest fighting, bring them back in rainbow colored body bags.
I’ve been retired in Aiken County, SC for 10 years and have been to every Memorial Day Parade in that time.
Last year about 6 or 8 the queers and fags (yes, even in this ultra conservative area we have a few) marched in the parade carrying a banner that said, “Out and Proud in Aiken County,” or some such. As they walked by the folks around me started booing. I walked down the side walk for a block or so, pacing them in the parade.
Remember the “wave” in football stadiums? People at the parade were cheering and clapping for the parade participants. But as soon as they saw the queers they started booing. After the queers went by they went back to cheering and clapping.
Fortunately, the queers and fags didn’t make the parade this year. Maybe they didn’t enjoy the ridicule last year?
sexual fetish flags?
where is the wife swapping flag?
animal sex flag?
leather fetish flag?
Since when did a sexual fetish need to be discussed during a memorial day ceremony?
There will be children present. There is no reason to expose them to a sexual fetish.
This is another reason to go back to DO ask and DO expel.
I never heard of LetsbeAnn bagpipers. Kilts are not for women. Scots pipers are men-- all men, and wear kilts -- and they wear 'em regimental, too.
Ed doesn't know much about the pipes tradition nor of The Colors and neither does this Ricker. Let him drape his "Gay Pride" flag from a leetle lower down. /IMO
Once having spoken with such an effete poof, I'd cross a busy street to avoid doing so again. His manner makes my skin crawl.
Stop with this IN-YOUR-FACE 24/7/365 homo agenda!
Keep your sexual proclivities to yourself.
What happened to pleas of privacy?
Remember when all they wanted was privacy in their own bedrooms?
Now they advertise their sexual perversion on the street and want the government to force us to live with them, to like them, to approve of their conduct.
We have had more than enough.
Put your queer flags away, and shut up about it.
Someone should call this bigot out as to why he is only concerned with a flag to represent one type of sexual perverted behavior (homosexuality) that someone who served may or may not have participated in. Where was his flag to represent pedophelia? Or bestiality? Or S&M? Or nudists? Or infantialism? Or swingers into group sex? Why is this bigot excluding these behaviors???
They didn't "die in the line of duty" because they were queer, any more than they next man or woman died because he or she was straight.
They were just being polite in saying it was political.
No one wanted a pervert flag in the parade..
