    You do actually know why they’re doing this, right? Because there was already a rainbow crosswalk to commemorate the Pulse Nightclub victims. It’s so weird that there were no casualties in that one! The fascists painted it over because they’re homophobic knuckleheads, and so now protesters are painting it and others back. You know, it takes zero effort not to be a pedantic but also ignorant ass just for the sake of it.

      I could go on a flame war over “it takes zero effort not to be a pedantic but also ignorant ass just for the sake of it.” as an answer to a civilized, reasoned comment, but I don’t want this place to be Reddit. Insults really detract from your argument.

        Please do tell us how rainbow is less visible than white lines that blend into all the other white lines.

        Please do cite any stats you have that show increased accident rates during pride month or in cities with rainbow cross walks.
