I'm having a difficult time understanding why the pride flag is even a potential city flag.
Why not a BLM flag? Why not a Jewish flag? Why not a Palestinian flag?
Because it isn't inclusive of the entire population of that city.
I left California because that state was telling me how I should think and what I should
believe.
Montana seemed independent and free from dictating policy and beliefs.
Should the pride flag be designated the city flag of Bozeman, my initial reaction is to
pack up and head to another state.
Any group of people can live how they want to live. But, I don't want any group of people
to tell me how I should think or how to live my life.
I am extremely opposed to the pride flag being the city flag or any flag that promotes a
particular political viewpoint or lifestyle.
