I have noticed that some restaurants and small business places have taken in our American flag (the Stars and Stripes) and replaced it with a rainbow flag (a symbol of the LBGTQ community). Now, it’s their business what they choose to fly for flags, but if they prefer the rainbow symbol over the American symbol, I will never again enter that building — even if the pizza is free.
Why is it that people can’t be American and a gay supporter, and fly both flags?
