        Kids love rainbows. I’m an adult and I love rainbows. They are literally fun colors and beautiful.

        If your religion is making you hate rainbows, it might be time to take a look at your religion and the batshit stuff it teaches you.

          The rainbow was hijacked from the Abrahamic religions by the homosexuals.

          Instead of hating rainbows, I’m teaching my children that the LGBTQ+ community is part of shaitan’s army.

          I’m even thinking that every year, for a month, we take a family vacation to Saudi Arabia to avoid the child grooming agenda in the month of June across the western world.

          I’ve also been filtering all tv shows/cartoons that present us with LGBTQ+, like in bluey, that British pig show, and sesame street etc… thank God for torrents, amirite?

          No worries tho, my children won’t be taught to hate, they will be taught to avoid like the black plague and to only stick with the community/ummah.

              lol did you report my comment?

              Nah, we Muslims have different priorities, a different culture, different way of life. It’s why we’re incredibly difficult to sway off the path.

              If and when the secularists turn a Muslim into one of them, take that as a trophy. You’ve achieved almost the impossible.

      Right wing Christians (don’t put it in quotes, don’t do a No True Scotsman, they’re Christians) hate rainbows now and I can’t love it more because it ruins their precious Noah story for them.

        The guy has a dope, but do people really think they hate rainbows and not what this flag is supposed to represent?

    White light is a tightly squished rainbow, so I guess these people’s only option is to all go blind.

    I mean, more blind than they’re now.

    The lifeguard seemed particularly triggered by the turquoise and pink stripes on the original Pride flag designed by Gilbert Baker, which represent magic and sex, respectively.

    Gonna go out on a limb and say that this man is no fun at parties.

    I wish people, regardless of personal beliefs, experiences, or values, would learn to appreciate one another for the things they have in common, and stop being triggered by the expressions of those characteristics that we don’t.

    I love so many people that don’t vote, worship, recreate, or otherwise live life like I do. That doesn’t change who I am, and I would never want to change who they are.

    Stop hating each other FFS.

    Rule in his favor, then I have precedent to sue every church, business, and government entity that displays a cross. ❤️

    Jeffery Little, who has worked for the city for 22 years, filed a lawsuit on Friday claiming he is being discriminated against for his evangelical faith by being made to stand in the same vicinity as the Progress Pride flag. Little alleges he was suspended from his role with the department’s background investigation unit last year after he took down three LGBTQ+ flags during Pride month.

    The Los Angeles county board of supervisors voted last year to require the rainbow banner be flown during the month of June at government buildings, which includes lifeguard stands. Little, who claimed the flags present a “direct conflict” with his religious beliefs, fought to be placed at stations that would not fly the flag, as they did not have the right flag poles to fly any banner.

    I gotta go to work so I’ll leave that to comment for myself.

    Little typically works at Will Rogers Beach, long considered a safe space among LGBTQ+ beach goers. The beach is so popular with queer residents and visitors that it earned the nickname "Ginger Rogers Beach.

    Why doesn’t he just ask to be stationed at a different beach? He’s offended by a flag, but not a bunch of men and women making everyday PDAs right in front of him?

      Because it’s all bullshit and he’s just a greedy asshole who wants to make a quick buck at taxpayers expense. Fuck him.

      The fact that he was able to sue… especially in the state of California of all places. This could actually be a trend for the entire nation.
