I have never understood why the LGBTQ community has a need to display their sexual preference. Any business certainly has a right to consider their moral thoughts and their customer base and do as they see fit. If the LGBTQ flag is displayed, I can think of many other, various groups that could demand to have their flag displayed. Therefore I agree with Mayor Taylor and not only believe the flag should not be displayed by the City Government, but the crosswalks should be removed. If an individual business wants to display whatever flag they want; they have that right.
