Sure, why not? The degenerates and carpetbaggers have already fricked up the city. Might as well add another layer to the shite cake.

I don't get the need to "honor" gay people. Thought they wanted to be treated like everyone else?

It doesn't really bother me. It's not like anyone driving down here knows what a fricking crosswalk is anyway.

Initially, I thought no way this gets approved with the Vieux Carre Commission, but since they look a little light in the loafers, it may have a shot. Those people are history Nazi's but I guess they can put aside their historical preservation when it is for a cause.

Wait a minute. I'm confused...isn't New Orleans the city that just had all the historical monuments removed that honored the Confederate generals etc? And now they are proposing to honor the LGBTQ community with rainbow colored crosswalks? Doesn't that disenfranchise those who are not LGBTQ? Since all of New Orleans is so up in arms in support of getting rid of the confederate monuments...you'd think they'd want to unify the city rather than show support to only one group. Hmmm.

“New Orleans is a place that welcomes you with open arms to simply be who you are,” said Lizzy Shephard, one of the petition's authors. “A rainbow is one beautiful way to show support for the gumbo mix of culture and people that makes our city so great.”


By singling one group out?

Our city? This bitch isn't even from Louisiana and went to college in Minnesota.

Then she's gonna move to New Orleans a few years ago and act like she's a local?

To "honor"? What for?
Is the LGBGTQISBSYXH crowd considered special for doing something worth honoring?

Sounds even more ridiculous than taking down 100 year old statues.

Im sure Mitch will be all over this.
