Looking at the photo, one can only recall the scene from the Bible where God said, “I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be a token of a covenant between me and the earth. And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud: and I will remember my covenant...” (Gen. 9:13-15)
That day, when God looked down and saw that imitation of His bow staring up at Him, mocking Him...When I think how He used the bow to serve as a reminder of a covenant with the earth and its people (a covenant all of grace—what covenant are we sinful creatures entitled to with a holy God?) and how man has fired back and used that same “reminder” as a symbol of a covenant between man and his own lusts, I shudder to think of the judgment due this land (and its people).

That's what concerns me. There is no fear of God in their eyes. They are PROUD of what they do. They are now mockers who openly parade their rebellion. None of us are perfect, of course. But I pray none of us are parading in the streets, openly defying the Lord.
I think of:
"Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil" (probably a paraphrase)
