If the national LGBT movement fully embtaced using that flag, like I saw in one demonstration in Philly, the wingnuts would abandon the use of that flag within weeks or months. There would be no way to tell if those 'patriots' are militants or part of the LGBT movement so most of them would discard using that flag.

I'm talking about using a rainbow version or a purple background version that some LGBT groups use... I'm talking about the original yellow flags currently used by the wingnut patriots.

This is sarcastic.

If LGBTs have a sense of humor, photoshop the rattlesnake with a "wink." Someone think of a good caption.
