    In my ideal world...people need not wave a flag celebrating how they like to have sex in other people's spaces and faces.

    They just go about their days happy and free.

    There is only one group who demands to wave an obnoxious flag in your face which symbolizes how they enjoy sex.

    Only one.

    If you insist on being obnoxious and irritating, expect people to react accordingly

    Looks like you missed the moral, Christian part.

    Many Nazis were good Christians. As is today, Nazism and Christianity don’t seem to be mutually exclusive.

    Nope, Nazis where not good Christians. I suggest you consult Dietrich Bonhoeffer.

    "if white people ever celebrate their culture and being white - it's nazi"

    This dipshit hot take is exactly why white people are afraid of being proud of their identity and the societies they create. Which is sad because every single white majority nation are the exact same ones everyone is flocking to go live in.

    False narrative to defend the ability to continue to shove the ****ing pride flag and their sexuality down your throat.

    You will accept this false narrative or you are a bigot.

    Seriously. Piss off with the bullshit oppression narrative. Go. Live your lives free, but take that annoying flag and month and parades and shove them up your asses. We are tired of it. Oh ya. Leave our kids the **** alone.

    It's one thing to accept it and another thing altogether to celebrate it with a national holiday.

    Christian morality is not subject to change to conform to local cultural trends. Despite what nazis may have thought they were not moral Christians. We are called to love and care for our neighbors. We can refuse to accept perverse behavior without wanting to mistreat or kill those involved.

    You said that there are no people.

    You have examples of police officers, politicians and heads of ministries calling for the dead of gay people.

    A person of integrity would admit their prior statements were incorrect not say they are not prominent enough voices.

    If you had police officers — especially leaders in the department — calling for the execution of Christians or whites I doubt you would care they are not prominent enough.

    I said I had never heard anyone say it.
    I would probably never hear those officers saying such a thing, I haven't yet in 79 years.

    So should that flag be banned? Should individuals not be free to waive the flag?

    So you have no issues with anything else I posted — just the flag? You seem to care a lot about corporations sponsoring events. Should that be banned?

    I think it should be banned from the government. If it is banned from displaying on public properties then government dependent corporations will follow the suit.
    Government has no business in private activity especially if that activity has no effect on general public. By definition gay sex is strictly intimate matter.
    Unfortunatly republicans, for some reason, do not want to file lawsuit against current administration.

    Special rights is a term originally used by conservatives and libertarians to refer to laws granting rights to one or more groups that are not extended to other groups. Ideas of special rights are controversial, as they clash with the principle of equality before the law.
    Gay benefits were extended ONLY to homosexuals.
    Same rights have not been extended not other groups that are similarily situated.
