As a radical leftist demonstrator, Ms. Grauer should have understood her worldview is dictated by leadership. If they hate Israel, she needs to fall in line.
If there are gay Rastafarians, are Rasta flags OK? They're kinda rainbows too!

If the Constitution were to be followed in spirit as well as the letter, none of this nonsense would have any effect on the rest of us normal people.
These groups would have no political excessive power to oppress the rest, and no chance of getting a free ride on the taxpayer’s tail.
There’s very little new under the sun that our Christian Founding Fathers didn’t know or consider.
Maybe if, instead of a flag, the Jewish Lesbians wore rainbow armbands with the star of David it would shame a few of their tormentors into silence. But probably not, since knowledge of even fairly recent history is so lacking today.
Pack o’ hags.
It appears the whole pride movement has many parallels to what one might conclude as an established religion. When our White House is lit up in rainbow colors, the merry flag (their cross or star of David?) is raised on public grounds, the declaration by our government to recognize (honor?) an entire month (WTF?!?!?) of celebration with the use of tax payer dollars and other public resources, public education curriculum changed to include the teaching of acceptance of abnormal behavior and their belief system, laws enacted/changed to protect and promote these beliefs, erecting monuments on public grounds, publicly funded genital removal/transplant,... Sure seems like our government is forcing us to accept a new belief system by the loudest proponents for freedom of/from religion. At its core, this pride movement is only a belief and becoming more and more difficult to freely not believe in it.
This makes them feel "unsafe"? They are going to go catatonic if anything really serious happens.
St. Louis Pride is having its own intersectional issues, which resulted in a participant being “educated.”
ST. LOUIS • The Balloon Brigade, a popular staple in the annual PrideFest parade, was hit with social media backlash for including a Blue Lives Matter flag on its float Sunday afternoon.
On Monday, the brigade’s leader apologized and said the group, which raises money for an AIDS charity, would return two awards it won for its entry in the parade.
“As the co-creator/producer of the St. Louis Balloon Brigade, I wish to apologize to the members of the community that I have offended,” wrote Chad Carroll in a statement released through #Boom Media, a brigade sponsor, and posted on Facebook. “I approved a flag on our float in the Pride parade that has deeper meaning to some than I previously understood. I have been educated today.”
The flag symbolizes support for law enforcement and is a takeoff of the Black Lives Matter movement that sprang up as an outcry from a rash of police shootings of black men, notably Michael Brown in Ferguson. Many minority groups, including the LGBT community, have taken offense at the Blue Lives Matter flag, seeing it as an affront to the efforts to bring attention to the marginalized.
“We flew the Blue Lives Matter flag in honor of the lesbian daughter of one of our members,” Carroll said in his letter. “She came out relatively recently, and then became a police officer. When I was asked permission for this weeks ago I was only thinking of what a great show of love and respect for his family this was. There was absolutely no political motivation or activism intended by this display.”
Carroll said members of the brigade were not asked to vote on whether to include the flag and “the majority of them were not even aware it was there because they were so busy and excited on parade morning … it was ultimately my original call that let the flag appear. I was wrong. I deeply regret that decision.”
Tony Rothert, legal director for the ACLU of Missouri, commented in a Facebook thread about the letter from Carroll: “This seems to be one of the most sincere apologies I have ever read. Rather than take criticism as a personal insult, an educational moment was accepted. The return of awards shows this is for real. Kudos.”
The apology came as parade judges on Monday were debating by email whether to strip the Balloon Brigade of its awards.
“I am going to speak up here because a lot of assumptions are being made as to the decision of them receiving the award,” wrote Ben James, one of the judges, in a Facebook post prior to Carroll’s statement. “We at the judges tent could not see any of the flags they were flying because they were using their balloons to block our view of them. As someone who personally supports Black Lives Matter, I am disgusted to learn that this flag was hidden from us. And I am further upset that we awarded this to them; knowing now that they had this flag I wish we could take these awards away.”
One other judge said the flag was not hidden but among others representing different groups and on a float decked out with hundreds of bright balloons. He said he did not notice it was a flag representing Blue Lives Matter.
Pride St. Louis, the nonprofit that organizes the downtown parade, issued a statement Tuesday afternoon after the Post-Dispatch asked whether groups such as Black Lives Matter were prevented from participating in the parade.
“Pride St. Louis does not have a policy to prevent political groups from participating or from taking political positions. Black Lives Matter did not ask to participate, but had they asked, we would have immediately allowed them to participate,” said Pride spokesman Landon Brownfield. In past parades, organizations have carried a Black Lives Matter sign, Brownfield said.
I see at least one male lesbian in the march...would’a thought theyd’a beat him up and kicked him out by now.
Facebook let the NY Times and plenty of other people post this story. When I posted it with a caption of “#Jews can either be Jews or #Leftists”, Facebook said my post violated community standards.
Hopefully she learned her lesson that progressives' hatred for Jews/Israel/America overrides all other concerns.
Lol....IDF bulldozers are coming for all you fugly dykes, for real. It's Ms. Butterworth time.
Anti-Semitism on the prog-left is considerably more pervasive than it is on the alt-right.
Jews used to be prominent in the Left.
Now, blacks and Muslims want to be in control, which means that the Jews need to be purged from all positions of power, or even visibility. Perhaps Jewish leftists will learn from this, but I doubt it.
BTW, what the heck are they marching FOR? What issues do they want to bring to the public's awareness that we aren't aware of already? Their psychiatric pathology?
From this Jewish perspective, seeing the Star of David in this parade of sleaze is an embarrassment.
