More lunacy from the Christian-right. They have failed in convincing the public that gay-marriage was cultural appropriation, so they're now focusing on "the rainbow."

He wasn't "crying" about it, he was showing liberals how stupid they are.

Well, he repeated the same whiny, nonsensical catch phrase others have repeated before to do it.

There certainly have been people who've wined nonsensically about the "theft" of the rainbow. They've made just about any other complaints about cultural appropriation seem brilliant in comparison.

I find this lunacy. I'm a person of the right, but also a person of the LGBT community. There are many of us, who are gay and conservative and agnostic. I don't support religious fanatics of any stripe.

"God" stole the rainbow from science. It's a freaking atmospheric phenomena that can be scientifically explained.

Makes as much sense as any other claims of "cultural appropriation".

True and why I tried finding out if he was simply mocking the Left.

Google came up short but I didn't look too hard.

Ten years ago all we heard from the right was how marriage was for straight-Christian couples only. Gay couples couldn't get married because their cultural appropriation would ruin the sanctity of marriage.

Republicans need to take a step back and examine their own party before they complain about liberals using the term "cultural appropriation." Those on the far-right are much more influential than those on the far-left. Some students at Berkeley may shut down a speaker (wrongfully so) but they will not deny millions the right to marry if they please.

Since God created the rainbow there is no way he stole it from anything
