Controversy Over Confederate Flag Inspires Anti-LGBT Bigots To Call for Removal of Gay Pride Flags

[TexasTowelie]

In response to the push to eradicate Confederate flags from the public square, some anti-LGBT bigots are now calling for the removal of gay Pride flags.

Dylann Roof, who murdered nine black people in a hate crime at a South Carolina church last week, posed with the Confederate flag and a gun in photos on his website — and the flag has long been a symbol for groups that share Roof’s white supremacist views.

The horrific murders have prompted calls for the removal of the Confederate flag from the statehouse in South Carolina, from the state flag in Mississippi, as well as from license plates in other states. Several retailers have also announced they’ll stop selling Confederate flag merchandise.

But the American Family Association’s Bryan Fischer said on his radio show Tuesday that if there’s any flag that should be taken down, it’s the gay Pride flag, according to Right Wing Watch:

“If we are going to remove symbols of oppression from our culture, if we come to the point where we say any flag that represents bigotry, any flag that represents hatred, any flag that represents slavery or oppression needs to be removed, then I want to suggest to you that the next flag to go ought to be the rainbow flag of the Gay Reich.”

“The rainbow flag represents the gay lobby, it represents Big Gay, it represents what I’m calling for the first time today, I’m introducing a new term: the Gay Reich,” he continued. “They’ve got a flag just like the Nazis had their flag.”
