   Fag Flag Is Removed From Stonewall Monum

   A large Pride flag was quietly removed from the Stonewall National   
   Monument in Manhattan after a directive from the federal government, the   
   latest step in the Trump administration’s nationwide assault on   
   diversity initiatives and the second time in less than a year it has   
   targeted the Greenwich Village site, which commemorates the birth of the   
   L.G.B.T.Q. rights movement.   
      
   The flag’s removal came weeks after the Department of the Interior   
   issued federal guidance on displaying “non-agency” flags in the National   
   Park System, which includes a small park in front of the Stonewall Inn,   
   the bar for which the federal monument is named.   
      
   Elected officials and bar employees said they realized the rainbow flag   
   was gone on Monday morning. On Tuesday, a bare flagpole stood on the   
   monument’s grounds as steely clouds hung overhead.   
      
   Boo hoo.  lol!   
      
   No fag flags on government property.  Deal with it.
