RE: Rainbow criticism, June 9.
Once again I see letters which let us all know that we still have problems. Why wouldn’t everyone embrace and support Pride Month, along with all the other special days and months we celebrate, to say “we had it wrong and now we include you into our world and celebrate your uniqueness?”
I spent 13 years in the military fighting your battles and for our way of life, which is to say every single person is important and should be shielded from bigotries, ignorance and hatred.
We are all in a world we share with one another; come out from under your rock and welcome everyone to the party, not just your kind, and you will see they are all just like you: they bleed, they love, they cry and they want to be accepted.
Sorry anyone has to listen to anything else that doesn’t share these ideals, because you don’t know what it is to be a human being and you surely don’t understand religion and acceptance.
