The NYPD Hate Crimes Task Force is looking for a man behind a disgusting act that took place in Manhattan.
Police say the incident took place on the morning of April 15, when a suspect entered a building on West 95th Street and defecated on a Pride flag.
The man is also said to have taken a second Pride flag and wiped his backside with it before running off on Amsterdam Avenue.
No one was hurt during the incident.

The alphabet banner is not exactly in the same category.
It is more like the Christian banner. Represents a group of people in the country but I bet people would throw a fit if it was shown in any official capacity.
In fact I would bet the same people who are outraged about the pride banner being pooped on would applaud the Christian banner being pooped on.
Just to make it more an Apples to Apples comparison.
Go have a seat with ol’ Dick Whitman. You two have lots to talk about. 😏
Sidewalks okay. Street okay but stay off that rag that has no legal status.
Crapping on that LGALPHABET flag is akin to doing it on the altar for Catholics.
I believe it did.
That was an eloquent statement he made. LOL!
Who?
If a-holes can desecrate the US flag, then sure as sh_t, the poofter flag can be shat upon!
I would suggest leading an “I am Spartacus” movement on this... but they would just arrest all of the Spartacuses.
Are you serious?
This man is a hero.
Bah. See enough feces on the sidewalk and smell enough urine in the street and you won’t feel that way.
desecrating the American flag is freedom of expression, especially a flag that does not represent any country; And if those colorful flags are owned by him, there is no crime to prosecute.
I believe we’re talking about New York, not San Francisco.

What if it was a false flag attack?
Isn’t a gay american still an american, therefore when burning an american flag how do you differentiate weather its representative of a straight american or gay american.
If he did it on the American flag he’d get a freedom of speech pass.
Poorly worded question.
Anything goes when it comes to the American flag these days. Anyone can do anything they want to it and its *freedom of speech* and people are not being prosecuted.
Why then, should not the same standards be applied to the *gay flag*? Why afford it special protection that the US flag does not have and prosecute desecrating it as a crime while the actions done to the American flag are permitted?]
Prosecuting as a hate crime a make believe flag celebrating perversity is an abomination.
What crime? Did he loot a Walmart? Clean out a Liquor Store of cigarettes, booze, and then burn it down?
Here's a guy that really gives a sh*t about his community. They should give him a "Key to the City"; or at least a key to a private restroom.
