Rainbow Flags With #ShootBack Written on Them Found in West Hollywood
NBC Los Angeles ^ | 06/16/2016 | Ted Chen

Rainbow flag signs with "#ShootBack" written on them were found plastered across West Hollywood on Thursday morning, causing a stir among residents and condemnation from city leaders, less than a week after the shooting rampage at a gay nightclub in Orlando.

The flags, blending a snake symbol used by the Tea Party with the symbol for gay pride, were found all over the Southern California city Thursday morning, including in front of City Hall and one of the city's most popular gay bars, the Abbey.

Crews worked all afternoon to remove the signs. City leaders say even though they're still angry about the Orlando massacre, they are against the message on the signs.

"As we see them our Public Works Department is taking them down because we don't allow the posting of any sign on our trees or poles," City Councilman John Duran said.

I've been saying for years that when it finally does go down we might be surprised at who ends up in the foxhole next to us. We can fight among ourselves later if we make it that far.

This is getting ugly. SEIU and BLM are openly setting up for violence. Hillary's team has taken over the DNC. Muslim terrorists are killing people and the administration and the media are covering for them. The Justice Department has been subverted, the FBI neutered. We are very close to the end of the rule of law in this country.

Interesting times.

“Citizen Action is what is called for.”

Yeah, good luck to the Gays in LA getting CCW permits! Maybe they will carry anyway and see what the LEOs do dealing with a “protected class”
of citizens.

Being properly accessorized is always important, especially when meeting new folks.

Excellent precis.

No we’re not. As the government fails, the citizen will see it and respond. I have much more faith in the LGBTWXYZ coalition than I have in the fedgov.

At least the LGBT group has figured it out. Time to SHOOT BACK! It’s also time to eliminate the order of “No Guns Allowed”. I would bet there would be a lot less shootings like that seen in Orlando if the gun bans were removed.

Thank you for echoing my sentiment.

At this point I don’t care what they were at the club for, 49 Americans were murdered and 53 more Americans were wounded.

I have taken a hard personal stand against the homosexual agenda by dissolving the Boy Scout troop that I founded. That said, the news this week of Americans being slaughtered was devastating.

Well, I’m sure someone will post it in the responses to one of Takei’s Facebook comments. The FB Nazis will have a tough time dealing with it, too - it can’t be zapped outright, that might be seen as insensitive. Hah.
