British Police Stations Lower Union Jack in Favor of Homosexual Flag
Flags being powerful symbols, nothing could be more symbolic of Britain's decline into liberal degeneracy than this:
Dozens of police stations lowered the Union Flag and replaced it with a gay rights banner to mark a day of action against homophobia.
One police chief said the rainbow flag demonstrated his force's support for homosexuals who felt they were victims of prejudice.
In Islamic countries, where prejudice against homosexuals actually exists, you probably won't see them strutting around like roosters, demanding attention and deliberately antagonizing anyone suspected of not supporting their nauseating agenda. They are so far from being victims of prejudice in the West that police departments pull down the Union Jack to fly their flag instead. But screeching that you're oppressed is how you flex your muscles in a culture corrupted by moonbattery.
Is it proper for a police department to make a gaudy display of support for a radical political agenda? Thankfully, some still realize that it isn't.
Earlier this year, Britain's most senior policeman ordered his force not to fly any flags in support of individual groups.
Sir Paul Stephenson, commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, instructed officers to remove a rainbow flag which had replaced a Union Flag at Limehouse police station, in East London, to mark Lesbian Gay Bisexual and Transgender history month.
If Stephenson ends up with his head on a pike — if only metaphorically — for his futile defense of civilization, he could go down as the Charles George Gordon of Britain's absurd and ignoble demise.
But elsewhere, four forces flew the gay rights flag at the weekend to mark International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia — the prejudice against transsexuals.
Merseyside chief constable, Bernard Hogan-Howe, helped raise one above his force's Liverpool headquarters, which was lit up with multi-coloured lights.
And all the force's 41 police stations flew the rainbow flag for the day, marking the anniversary of the day that the World Health Organisation removed homosexuality from its list of mental disorders in 1990.
As most stations have only one flagpole, the Union Flag, which they fly for the rest of the year, had to be lowered.
I wonder what festive celebrations will mark the day the UN's WHO declares that pederasty is normal too.
On a tip from Oiao.

Islamic countries should fly Christian and Jewish flags to support oppressed Christian and Jewish minorities and protest against the Christphobes and Jewphobes; in countries like Pakistan, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Syria, ect.

AEN's new question would be, "What could possibly go wrong?"

The Union Jack will be replaced with the Union of Jack and Mack in Unholy Matrimony.

Are there any heteros left in Britain? Seriously, how do they populate their island? Who generates tax revenue anymore to dole out to everyone else? Can't their busybody nannies find something dreadfully dangerous about gay sex and ban it? Oh yeah.

How do they populate their Island? Import Muslims. Within a century the Muslims will become the Moorlocks and pasty white Brits will be the Eloi - their ----------------- their FOOD.

Careful where you're headed folks ... you are now talking about eating homos. Of course, that's where half of your brains are anyway ... thinking about homos.
Either you are or you aren't ... decide and then let the rest of us worry about something else. It is just a flag after all ... and its not even happening in your country fool!
Give it a rest!

"It is just a flag after all ... and its not even happening in your country fool!"
Anon, the thing is, we have long viewed England as kind of a "Canary in the coalmine" early warning system of what can happen here in the US if we allow ultra- liberalism and an obsession with political correctness to run their course unopposed. As such, it is unsurprising that we are upset by this.

"As such, it is unsurprising that we are upset by this."
You're right. A rainbow flag is a lot to fathom. I don't like political correctness. People should say whatever they want. You don't like fags ... well, I think that's small of you, but whatever.
Flying a flag to support a nationally recognized day though. That's not PC editing of anyone's speech, that's just flying a flag.
