Missoula adopted the pride flag as it's official city flag in order to circumvent a Montana law that limits what flags can be flown on government property. Official city flags are exempt from these restrictions.

This speech by Missoula city councilor Jennifer Savage perfectly explains the harm that banning the pride flag does.

A couple tore up a pride flag in the middle of a pride parade, and nobody cared 👐 ✨ 🌈

And nobody suspected a thing due to the guy's pink T-shirt and rolled up jorts that are ten sizes too small offering a highly effective disguise as a gay man.

Laws ordering the removal of rainbow crosswalks hide their targeted discrimination behind invented facts. Multiple studies have shown that rainbow crosswalks decrease traffic incidents 🏳️🌈

Amtrak police have been cracking down on the popular gay cruising sight at a Penn Station restroom with an undercover sting operation. Many of the men arrested claim they were only using the bathroom, and were arrested for simply looking gay. There have also been reports of police using the f-slur

Destroying the American flag is political dissent against a global superpower. Destroying the pride flag is the oppression of a vulnerable group of people. Tyrants hate it when you do one of those things, but love when you do the other.

Five years after being discharged, a court ordered the military to reinstate him and offer pay. He decided, however, not to return, and instead dedicated his time to being a gay rights activist.

Leonard Matlovich would go on to become a gay rights icon after he was discharged from the military for coming out as gay in a memo. He appeared on the cover of Time magazine alongside a headline that read "I Am a Homosexual".

When Idaho and Montana also issued statewide pride flag restrictions, Missoula and Bozeman followed Salt Lake City Mayor Mendenall's lead by adopting the pride flag as their official city flags 🌈

The vote to remove sexual orientation and gender identity from anti-discrimination laws in Arlington has been delayed until next month. The city has cited fears of losing $65 in federal grants if they do not comply with Trump's crackdown on DEI initiatives.

50% of voters wanted Trump as president. 51% of internet traffic now comes from bots. 100% of bigots lack critical thinking skills. Crunch the numbers, and you'll see the only solution is to fabulously strut away 💅 💃

Remember when influencers' only influence extended to what shade of beige sweaters we would buy in Fall? When they weren't edgy trolls that crawled out of the sewers of 4chan to run the country?

@walshfreedom.bsky.social I thought you'd want to see this. People are waking up. I hope it's more numerous than that. But it looks like we're seeing people starting to wake up.

Luckily, an AFD truck was passing by shortly after the incident, and the protesters asked them if they had any water. In response, they sent to another fire truck that had more water, and hosed the hate down!

Texas has followed Florida in its response to Trump's DOT directive to remove roadway art, citing ill-founded safety concerns. During a gathering formed around one of the rainbow crosswalks in Austin that are due to be removed, someone threw red paint at it.
