NO DEZZY those Colors are Activism


Someone had that badge on
and was beaten UP
in Brighton and Hove, East Sussex
Some Time Ago

The Gang of thugs only picked on him
as he had that Rainbow badge on his jacket.

Sexuality isn't political until....


People use political activism and then it turns political.

No one should be made to support something they don't agree with. There's a massive amount of unfairness going on right now where the rights of one group of people are being raised higher than someone else's. While the police allow poppies to be burnt on the streets of this country, while Christians are not allowed to wear crosses in some companies... people are being made to wear a symbol of gay pride, whether they agree with it or not. People have a right to express themselves, no one should be forced to wear a political symbol so the company looks "right on".

Suppose on a bigger scale its like when the Irish refuse to wear the poppy at events, got to understand its their view and right not to wear one even though I don't like it

really? so holocaust deniers and racist views, and sexist views have to be respected too? It's no different.

It's very different. You can respect whatever you like... but you can't make someone else wear a badge supporting what you respect.

Hey Alex, haven't seen you for ages.

All these symbols are meaningless, as long as they have equality in their mission statement and policy for all then that should be enough.
