Man in Rhode Island was arrested after he allegedly made a skid mark on a
Pride Rainbow crosswalk with his car.
 
The city allowing a "pride" crosswalk in the first place is a 1A violation.
If
I asked for a permit to paint an anti-troon mural in the crosswalk (or a
pro-gun/2A message), I bet they wouldn't give me one. The government is
allowing some political and social messages but not others based on their own
politics.
 
Where are the DOJ lawsuits against rainbow murals being painted on city
streets (to the exclusion of all other non-'progressive' messages) and then
treated like religious icons?

It's happened again.

Teenagers rip up some rainbow flags. Four are arrested and, according to the
Atlanta PD, a manhunt-- yes, you read that right-- is on for the other two.

My first question is, of course, arrested for what?

Texas v. Johnson, 491 U.S. 397 (1989). The Supreme Court ruled that flag
desecration is protected speech under the 1st Amendment: "It's both symbolic
speech and political speech."

If it's legal to desecrate the U.S. flag, it's legal to desecrate the flag of
the Password People.

"But wait," the apologists like FPP will say, "It's not legal to destroy
something that doesn't belong to you. These kids took those flags off the
streetlight poles! That's a crime!"

While this may be true, it's a crime that's strangely only enforced against
people hostile to the 'progressive' Agenda:

Anti-ICE protester pulls down a U.S. flag from a government pole and burns it:
no consequences.

Teenager pulls down a gay Rainbow Mafia flag from a government pole and rips
it up: straight to prison.
