Is that a pride flag? I mean, I suppose they're "proud" boys, just didn't think they were lgbtqia+ supporters.

Unfortunately being gay doesn't mean you're not really stupid. Take it from my gay self

I guess so. Just thought the specific population of these extreme right people would be, atleast to the outside world, not open to lgbtqia+. Especially since there is a lot of Evangelical Christians in the group!

They probably aren't but at the moment they were a little focused on a little something else. Also the flag could be a distraction tactic / a tactic to make the mob look less harmful / a tactic to attract LGBT to the Trump movement without having to do anything of substance

A few pride flags doesn't mean they aren't homophobic

In fact there is a movement to "take back the rainbow". This could be a case of that. Dunno.

That's true, some evangelicals want that. Forgot about that
