Just wondering if it's the same as the UK, is the process of 'fagging it up' with a rainbow actually no longer make it a crosswalk as it isn't recognised under the Highway code?
It’s always the poorest most working class areas where they roll out these rainbows.
Never in the muslim neighborhoods…

They are also a danger to horses :

Poor horses
That’s a shame. Perhaps the poster is shadowbanned? I chose a video because the poster said :
“some animals can sense wickedness”
edit: the video is only visible if I log in. F*** these underhand shadowbanning rules
That’s not the case in Australia, at least, unfortunately…
I know of at least two of these, one at a major intersection in Sydney, and one on my own damn Uni campus. Both completely legal, and “normalized”…
So I guess that doesn’t carry here.
Side note: this is about demoralization and normalization. That’s all this is.
Showing how they’ve “won”, and “You’d better agree with and like it, or else.”
So I disagree that this is “ineffective” or “unimportant”. I think taking a stand, as these guys did, is important, because it shows that we ain’t gonna just stand shit, and at least someone is willing to stand up, and take some sort of action…
Who knows what else it might inspire others to do, after all.
AFAIK it's never been legally tested. Seems black and white (no pun intended) but I can't imagine you'd find a non pozzed judge who wouldn't just throw the hate crime book at you.
