How bout no.

You wanna be gay? Be gay. Leave tax money out of it. And leave me out of it, because I'm not gay, and I don't have anything to celebrate about you being gay, nor do I care.

I'm not even irritated that it's for LGBTQ. What gets me is them shutting down these busy intersections for an entire weekend for this crap. My reaction would be the same if red white and blue for America, pink for breast cancer, or even yellow for support the troops.

Hey, we got our first one today in San Antonio, TX.
City council ordered it, transportation dept had concerns for safety. Lots of folks doing selfies there. If it is not deemed unsafe after six months study, the city will paint lots more.

I don't particularly care how a ethnic group decides to decorate their community, but dude... that price tag that we all have to pay for??!!!

The government owes me a Ferrari.
