LGBTQ+ Lawmaker Confronts People Protesting Pride Flag | NowThis

Rick Van Dam no one was interrupting anybody tbh, the guy called her out and she responded by addressing the mayor saying she needed to respond at which point the guy said, “I’m gonna involve you here in a minute.” So interruption is not really an issue here. The issue is the guy spoke to her in a very disrespectful manner, and even said, “When I want you to stop talking I’ll hold my hand up just like the mayor does.” As if he had the same authority in that situation as the mayor. He showed blatant disregard for decorum, and all signs for why point to bigotry.

I have a pride flag in my room and it helped my 4-year-old sister learn the colours and she loves it when she sees more of them bc they're "my" flags

You sound 12, get back to learning exponents

I feel bad for the kids of the father who gets embarrassed to explain the pride flag to them. Imagine if one of them grows up to be part of the LGBTQ+ community and is terrified to come out because of their dads mindset. It’s so sad.

Happens every day unfortunately.

There is no imagine, statistically it has been already happening. Minot itself has 47k population so at least 500 lgbt, how many conservative parents, I will leave that up to you

The flag is stupid tho

[@zetskandar]

People like to say the pride flag is offensive when they have a confederate flag on their Ford Pickup 😂😂

I am a man. A husband, A father of four. A heterosexual. And the Pride flag represents me, as some of the nicest people I know and proudly consider as dear friends are homosexual. May Peace be with you all and stay safe.

Thank you, it's nice to see straight people being allies :)

You are a lovely man Hamid and this is the same for me. Although I am divorced, I am heterosexual however some of my dearest friends are LGBTQ+ and I love the fact that they can start to enjoy life openly and love who they want.
