How many times have we seen this particular scenario? A group of whackos does something silly or egregious and folks on the opposite political team make it appear as if these few people represent the majority of the group. This is what occurred after the news broke about some individuals who vandalized an LGBTQ+ flag that belonged to an elementary school in Los Angeles.
An investigation is reportedly underway after an LGBTQ+ flag placed in a plant pot outside a classroom at Saticoy Elementary School in North Hollywood was set on fire and destroyed. The incident is being treated as a possible hate crime by the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD).
The school has been the center of controversy due to objections from a small group of parents regarding an upcoming Pride Day assembly, where children are scheduled to be taught about LGBTQ+ identities during a book reading. The parents who oppose the event have expressed their concerns on social media, distributed flyers, and plan to be present at the assembly to hand out more flyers and encourage parents to keep their children at home.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom and his hair gel tweeted about the incident, waxing alarmist over a supposed “full-throated purge effort” by the far-right that is reminiscent of past oppression. He condemned the burning of flags and banning of books, stating that this pattern of hate and intolerance is occurring nationwide. In a tweet, Newsom bloviated:
Let’s take a moment to talk about this.
There is a full-throated purge effort going on here by the far-right that we have not seen for decades.
They are on a boycott binge and cancel crusade, trying to eliminate the existence of minority communities.
Burning Flags. Banning Books. We have seen this before.
And it’s happening everywhere, all across the country.
Woke has become just another a dog whistle.
We must continue to call out hate when we see it, as they keep trying to normalize it. If we go silent, this will only get worse. We cannot become numb to this.

Burning Flags. Banning…

Yes, folks, according to Newsom and his hair gel, we are apparently in the midst of a bloody purge that rivals anything we’ve seen in decades. Forget about slavery. Forget about nationwide lynchings. Forget about the Holocaust. Never mind the Holodomor. Burning flags and boycotting companies is the ultimate evil people face today.
Newsom’s assertion that acts of vandalism like this are happening “everywhere, all across the country” is about as real as Santa Claus. Yes, there are people who engage in this type of ridiculous and hateful behavior against members of the LGBTQ+ community, just as there are some on the left who carry out violence against pro-life organizations. The vast majority of Americans would condemn both – as they should. But the notion that the whole group should be painted with the actions of a few individuals is absurd on its face.
As this debate continues to progress, there will be nutjobs who will engage in this type of behavior. It seems Newsom wishes to exploit these occurrences to distract from the real debate about sexually-inappropriate material being presented to children. However, since it is nearly impossible to defend such a thing, folks like Newsom have to deceive and distract as much as they can, so we shouldn’t expect even a modicum of honesty from these people.
The way I see it, Gruesome Newsom can go to hell!
They try this and someone will arrange the trip for him.
Any Twosome Newsome: Drama Queen.
Call me a hater, but burning an 'LGBTQ+ flag placed in a plant pot outside an Elementary School classroom' sounds like an acceptable act to me. Although a 1 Kings 18:40 action would be appropriate, I understand those judgments belong to God. But disposing of a blasphemous 'flag' - placed in a public elementary school - is ok by me.
New study links left-wing extremism with psychopathy and narcissism
They just can’t help themselves to project. Yesterday I read someone called it ‘economic terrorism’. Who are the authoritarians? Because they can’t force compliance on how we spend our money?
How often has the left boycotted, doxxed, cancelled?
Conservatives are standing together in a completely organic movement. Unplanned and unwavering. They crossed a line - our kids. And once again their response is ‘labels and name calling’.
This is a spiritual battle. And they are not going to win this one. They know it and we know it. And they can’t stand it.
The same people that defend vandalizing American flags as “freedom of speech.” The LGBT flag isn’t real - it’s the flag of the satanist cabal that’s taken over our nation
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOCThe term “cancel culture” comes from entitlement - as though the person complaining has the right to a large, captive audience,& one is a victim if people choose to tune them out.
Odds are you’re not actually cancelled, you’re just being challenged, held accountable, or unliked.

Yep!
Hitler had the Jews to use as a propaganda target...
The American versions, like Newsome, have Christians and MAGAs to act as whipping boys...
These traits that are being exposed in the left, along with the “dark triad” are manifestations of a very old condition called “reprobation”; it is spiritual psychopathy/sociopathy and the clinical description is found in Rom. 1:18-32 and II Tim. 3:1-5.
The only way to protect our children and ourselves is to avoid those who manifest this pathology.
The way I see it, burning the Degenerate Flag as a step in stopping filthy degenerates from sexualizing, maiming and destroying children is much more peaceful than burning the degenerates themselves. So they should be happy, and relieved.
Excellent link. Thank you.
I’m currently listening to Grace to You sermons on living in America under judgment. This one is agrees how to live in a nation under divine abandonment.

I thought that the left approved of and encouraged flag burning.
Burning flags banning books. We have seen this before.
Newsom talking about churches NOPE.
IIRC THE COURTS HAVE DETERMINED THAT BURNING A US FLAG is a legitimate form of protest. Why would tis flag get special treatment.
A sexually confused young woman enters the Covenant Christian School with a rifle and evil intent, leaving three adults and three children murdered and a manifesto. Because she is quickly identified as a “trans man” the manifesto is suppressed and the story vanishes in three days. Let's see how long the story of the poor, innocent flag stays alive and compare to the REAL story above.
Here is the plant pot the tiny lugbut flag was in. Oh yeah, this is comparable to the Nazi deathcamps, all right.
If I were editor-in-chief, I would fine every staffer who invokes Godwin’s Law in their story 1000 Reichsmarks.
