The rainbow has always been a symbol of hope. And that's exactly why the homosexual community has co-oped it.

The rainbow is now exclusively associated with all things gay.

Yep. I guess Rainbow bread, Rainbow Grocery, Rainbow Autobody (local auto place), Rainbow Sandals, Rainbow Swingsets, Rainbow Company Youth Theatre etc etc etc are ALLLLL gay companies!!!

Sheesh. I don't get why people get all up in arms about this kind of petty stuff.

If so, I would agree that "nobody has wondered about this except" you.
I am saying that when children are exposed to symbols which they associate with positive and benign things "rainbows", they associate the same values with the group which uses the symbol.

Don't forget Lucky Charms.

The gay agenda is brainwashing children through breakfast cereal.

Young children don't even know what "gay" means. When they find out, they'll form opinions based on what their parents tell them, not on some abstract symbol.

Do you hate gays? Do you see tham as harmful? Why are you so worried about gays?

Let me tell you a thing or two about rainbows. First off, they are liars. Pot of gold? Bah! malarkey. Those dadblamed things don't even have an end. Which brings me to point number two.

Rainbows are an illusion. that's right! A figment, a will o' the wisp, a trick of the light. much like a magician's slight of hand, they disappear and appear without warning.

And don't get me started on Roy G. Biv, the colorful man behind the rainbow! I suspect he may have a thing or two to do with this gay thing. I heard he likes track lighting.

So there you go. Rainbows: the lying, gay illusion.

A child who has no knowledge of what "gay" is plays with rainbow toys and draws rainbows and loves the colors. Children react to the rainbow colors very positively.

When they are old enough to RECOGNIZE the rainbow flag and stickers and they see that the rainbow is ASSOCIATED with a particular LIFESTYLE that people practice. The child SUBCONSCIOUSLY associates the rainbow and people with something AUTOMATICALLY POSITIVE without understanding WHY!

They can't make up their own minds about it because they've been surrounded by subconscious cues their entire young lives with regard to the symbolism associated with the RAINBOW FLAG.
