Rainbow crosswalks getting some pushback (TX)
kxan ^ | Nov. 12, 2014 | Angie Beavin

Bundick says the rainbow is what the area’s all about.

“It’s the most recognizable way that people can identify and say, ‘This is a safe community. This is an accepting community,'” he said.

The Austin City Council gave the project initial approval. Now the details are getting worked out with the city’s Art Commission. Funding for the project will come partially from city money for public artwork. The Austin PRIDE Foundation is also donating money.

The city motto, "Keepin' Austin Weird" and more disgusting.

That violates a ton of safety regs. Stop it on those grounds.

Austin has one of the few totally corrupt, communist city councils in Texas. San Antonia and Houston are close runners up.

” “It’s the most recognizable way that people can identify and say, ‘This is a safe community. This is an accepting community,’”

More correctly, let’s change the last part to, “This is a politically correct community with no standards that will accept virtually anything ...anything that we decide to accept, that is.”

CW-II...coming soon to a city near you.

Government endorsement of sodomy. It’s like a whole new religion.

Do they have hammer and sickle crosswalk signs for the commies to make them feel welcome?

Safe for kids that are at higher risk of being molested?

Well, an old religion really, but regression to them is progress.

FROM THE ARTICLE:

“I’m all for making Austin as colorful as possible,” said J.T. Bundick, who works at business in the area.


Some things you can’t make up !

In the war of mentally ill homosexuals against normal Americans, here is their POA at the city level.

1. Start out with rainbow ribbons worn by every elected person.
2. Follow up with Rainbow Balloons placed around shops/buildings.
3. Follow up with the Rainbow Flag flying from Gay owned shops.
4. Force Rainbow Flags to fly over city hall and city buildings.
5. Make any remarks re the reality of the gay agenda a hate crime.
6. Ask for copies of sermons to see if hate crimes were tolerated.
7. Follow what Hitler and Mussolini did to prevent dissent.

Austin is a worldwide embarrassment to the character, history, and significance of that name.

This is what they do in Warsaw when they try to put up a rainbow.

'This is a safe community.'

What an odd definition of "safe" ...

63% of all new HIV infections ... 10% of all new Hepatitis A ... 20% of all new Hepatitis B ... 63% of syphilis ... 17:1 higher probability of anal cancer ... 44% probability of suffering domestic violence ... 20 year average reduction in lifespan ... and all of this packed into less than 2% of the population.

"Safe", really? More like a quarantine area or internment camp.

Back when I did the Off-Road.com thing and the Environazi stuff, we ran a lot of articles about the Church of Euthanasia, the crap eaters and the other whackjobs. People refused to believe we weren’t simply making it up.

They all are now mainstream groups I’ve seen discusses in the MSM as if they were just another ‘faith’. Then you have to consider the literal satanism thing in Oklahoma a couple months ago. They actually want this insanity. And these people teach our kids in school, govern in towns, counties, states and DC, work in out hospitals and police depts...
