amen! ive got nothing against gays, what they do on there own is there bussiness and regardless of how many stripes and stars are on there flag it is still a representation of the American flag. sadly to many the flag is just that, a flag made of fabric with some colors and stripes on it but to people like myself and many others that fought to defend what the flag symbolizes to me and my country its much, much more than just a flag. is that flag illigal? probably not but its still offensive to me and degrading to the American flag and what it stands for.

They are associating the American flag with gay culture, its a cheap attempt to win people over, or to show that this country accepts it.

What does America stand for in your view? liberty and justice for every citizen? equal rights? i thought that was one of the key reasons this country was founded. Sadly, its been 234 years and still not everyone is equal. They aren't trying to offend anyone or enforce their way of life on anyone either. They are standing up for the right to have equal rights to everyone else. It isn't about them trying to be different, its about them trying to be the same as everyone else.
