Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., is making a push to have the Pride flag considered on the same level as the U.S. flag in the eyes of the federal government.

Schumer announced plans to introduce legislation that would make the flag, a symbol of the LGBTQ movement, a congressionally authorized flag. The distinction would enshrine the flag with similar protections as the U.S. flag, military flags, POW/MIA flags and others recognized by Congress.

His move comes after the Trump administration removed a Pride flag from a national monument outside the Stonewall Inn earlier this month. A clash between police and patrons at a gay bar in the 1960s is widely considered the birth of the gay rights movement.

All the Democrats do is pander anyone to the various groups who make up their base. Tomorrow he'll pander to Muslims, who would kill all the alphabet soup crowd if they were in power.

I'd say I wish Schumer would go away, but his replacement would be even worse and likely AOC.

Sorry, wrong thread.

As soon as they decide what the pride flag will finally look like, then we can discuss it.
Of course that will never happen, you know why.

So burning it can now be celebrated and considered protected speech?

It always was, and still is. Go buy all the pride flags you want and light them on fire. You won't be arrested on speech grounds.




So they committed a crime (theft) and burned someone's property that didn't belong to them. We can debate about if you should be charged with a hate crime (I think they're stupid), but they were arrested for an actual crime.

When burning a US flag taken from a government poll/building will be treated as a hate crime, I'll buy this bull*****

Oh hell no, He can go to hell.
Asking who the "worst" posters are on TexAgs is like asking which jalapeño at a tailgate is the hottest, it depends entirely on who you ask and how much "maroon-tinted" Kool-Aid you've had that day.

With his apparent estrogen levels I would think the Entertainment board would be a best fit.

Wouldn't be my choice, but I look at it more as a power-play. Sounds like the photos are rotated.

When asked why this particular photo was selected for display at this time, a White House spokesperson said that "the Alaska Summit was a historic moment that helped bring Ukraine and Russia, whose brutal war was brought on by Joe Biden's incompetence, closer to a deal".

"This is one of many accomplishments that President Trump chooses to feature at the White House, where photographs are rotated frequently to highlight Presidential travel," they added.

A White House official also said that it was not unusual for the administration to hang up photos around the complex of the president's public meetings and events. They also said that there were photos of several other instances when Trump met with world leaders, and that the photos around the complex were frequently updated and rotated.


Did it bother you and Biden had a picture of a former member of the KKK in his office?


Joe Biden did have a picture of Senator Robert Byrd in his office. Biden had a close relationship with Byrd, who was a long-serving senator from West Virginia and a mentor to him. The photograph was part of Biden's tribute to Byrd, especially after Byrd's passing in 2010. However, it's important to note that Byrd had a controversial past as a former member of the Ku Klux Klan,

That sodomite flag needs to be burned.

Not hoisted.

If the gay flag gets equal prominence to the US flag, then I will have no hesitation nor regrets of flying the Texas flag above all else.
