London Embassy flies Rainbow Flag

And the Marine Security Detachment allowed that to happen?  (No, I am not suggesting they are ultra-right wing bigots.  I'm suggesting that in the absence of the protocol officer saying anything they might have taken the Ambassador aside and showed him the regs regarding which flag is to be flown, and how, and that decorative streamers espousing political or social movements are not supposed to be displayed.)

Ambassador wants to show support for LBGTIidentifyas he can host a lawn party - behind the gates, walls, and decorative privacy shrubbery.

stay safe.

If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

The current US Ambassador to Britain - considered the most important and prestigious ambassadorial post - was appointed by Barack Hussein Obama in 2013.

That should explain this <deity-condemned bovine excrement>.   =(

Is it acceptable to tar and feather him if we use rainbow colored feathers?

I'll vote for anyone for President who makes it a campaign promise to clone John Bolton 500 times in a laboratory, make him ambassador to every country, replace every Republican US senator with him,  and use what's left over to replace and many representatives as possible. Leave SCOTUS alone, at least they are consistently inconsistent.

Forget Bolton; I want Chuck Norris.

That should make debates interesting, to say nothing of Congressional hearings.
