In Mr. Pence’s New D.C. Neighborhood, Not Exactly The Welcome Wagon
By Ian Shapira. December 3.
In the affluent Washington neighborhood of Chevy Chase, the tinsel, poinsettias and Christmas trees are competing for attention this holiday season with an unusual house decoration: gay pride rainbow flags.
When news filtered out in late November that Vice President-elect Mike Pence was temporarily moving into the white colonial with green shutters on Tennyson Street NW — in the heart of Chevy Chase, a liberal Democratic stronghold — neighbors decided to greet the Republican interloper with polite protest: rainbow flags flapping from their homes. It was time to Make Chevy Chase Great Again.
Mike Pence’s new neighbors greet him with rainbow flags] Now this isn’t San Francisco, South Beach or Provincetown. Most of the homeowners who ran out to buy the flags or ordered them online are straight.
But in this neighborhood of oak trees and single-family homes, where 85 percent voted for Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine and just 9 percent cast ballots for Donald Trump and Mike Pence, residents wanted to make clear where they stand. “I thought it would send a message in an appropriate way. One idea was to put a ‘Chevy Chase.
Hillary’ banner, but we thought that would be too in-your-face,” said Joanna Pratt, 66, an environmental consultant who came up with the idea and lives across the street from Pence. Now, at least seven homes on the street boast the flags — a response to Pence’s opposition over the years to equal rights for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community.

Absolutely and it is irrational (evil) to “protect” the stupid term “sexual orientation” when it can mean anything from pederasty to pedophilia to bestiality.
Marxists remove reason and logic from Right Reason (Just Law) when they destroy the language and meaning of words, to destroy Western Civilization and make everything meaningless and women into men, (radical egalitarianism) which defies Reason and Science (Just Law has to be reasoned and based on the Laws of Nature and nature’s God (God’s Laws), not some abused person’s sick desires/lusts.
There is no special “protection” for people who are irrational and mentally ill and use their bodies in dysfunctional, degrading ways that defy Science and Reality and Health codes. They need to be locked up or at least in a counseling program.
Article states this is a temporary home until the VP home is vacated.
I know. All the more reason to have a nightly rainbow flag burning ceremony in the non-NO ‘hood.
They might want to fumigate the place in more ways than one.
Maybe they should bugger spray the neighborhood before they move in.
Who the heck cares about these loser snowflakes? They’ve been persecuting normal Americans for years now, but we’re decent, ethical people and won’t take revenge. So what is their problem?
Bump to those flags, especially the Confederate Battle Flag.
Yes. Lets hear it for neighborhood adults!
Or maybe send his new neighbors small pox blankets. LOL
the freaks will be selling once they start losing their meal ticket
otherwise, Pence should move to NoVA (McLean and Reston can be nice if you find a secluded spot)
Exactly right.
The only adult in the neighborhood and the only one with class!
The One who created the rainbow told us its promise. These people
copy what our God has made, but can’t change the meaning of any rainbow I see.
>> residents wanted to make clear where they stand
Libtards... unnecessarily arrogant, unnecessarily outspoken.
>> These people copy ...
The Left is an energized messaging maven motivated by the relentless contempt for its existence in a world it can’t control. And it will never STFU.
It’s frustrated siren is music to my years.
Before he puts that flag up, he should ensure there are many paramedics nearby, to treat all the liberal heads exploding in Chevy Chase when he raises that flag.
Workers who suck on the government teat in Chevy Chase voted 85% for Clinton.
Not a better soundbite for Trump to Drain the Swamp.
Comet Pizza is in this area
He should send someone out to burn a rainbow flag each day. Free speech and all.
