The Confederate Flag already exists, Martha. Most people know better than to fly it.
Thats just The Flag. Normal Americans feel too ashamed to fly it because of what people like her have done with it.
sigh go lay in an early grave you useless old bag
there's a lot more shame in such a suggestion or the battle flag that all the bigots display
The amount of times I think I’m being insulted in a given day because of the comments in my inbox is insane lol
Lmao I'm sorry. Jeff, El Jefe, you're just spreadin the word homie, and I am just a fool 🧐 I only crash land, it's the only way I know
It does kind of inadvertently reveal what Republicans and the religious right have to offer in place of Pride; being ashamed of who you are, self-hate.
Ah yes, that's the sort of Christian love I'm used to hearing about...
Can anyone give this woman an “Anita Bryant” pie-in-the-face?

Big moment in gay rights history!
Thank you for posting this. I had forgotten it existed. “At least it was a fruit pie.” LOL totally got me.
I remember when it happened! Lots of pearls were clutched!! This was so rich. It was like the Berlin Wall of Pie.
Pride is a reaction to shame.
A shame flag will surely shut them down.
oh, so she feels shame, now? /s
I thought the one with the tree on it was the shame flag?
the royal pine air freshener flag?
Canada
Easy on the catholic symbols, Martha, we don’t want to bring pedophilia into this.
Sounds like somebody hasn't gotten laid in a few decades
How about you fly a mind your fucking business flag, Martha. So annoyed that these pricks have a summer home in NJ
I say we don't.
