Have you read about the flag controversy in Meade? Seems that J.R. and Robin Knight, who operate a bed and breakfast in the small town, are being widely criticized by residents for displaying a rainbow flag (a symbol of gay pride) in front of their business.
The couple says it was just a gift from their 12-year-old son, and they thought it was colorful and pretty.
But some in Meade say the flag sends the wrong message. "It’s hard enough to keep your kids on the straight and narrow without outside influences like that," complained one local waitress.
The Knights say they’re not gay activists, although they believe in tolerance. And they say they’re not backing down, especially not after someone recently cut down the flag. They plan to order several more rainbow flags and keep putting them up. Good for them.

oh no!! Seeing a rainbow flag will cause otherwise straight and narrow kids to fall into the depravity of homosexual relations. Heaven forbid we fly a pretty colorful flag – we might be causing immoral behavior in good bible fearing children! Cut it down – my eyes, my eyes they are burning!!!!!!
Get a grip people.
Just looking at that abomination made me order “Brokeback Mountain” from Netflix and consider an alternative lifestyle.
I thought I was straight all these years, but one look at that flag and I want to wear buttless black leather chaps and fantasize over Ken Mehlman.
Damn you LIBERAL MEDIA!
I can’t believe the lengths some go to fight about something. It’s a pretty flag that their son bought. Let them fly it.However, as I type this I wonder would everyone agree that it would be ok if it was a confederate flag or swastika? Just food for thought, debate anyone?
WW -I can kinda see the confederate flag because it represents a certain heritage of “good ol’ boys” and all, but the swastika is just about hate so as long as it’s based in hate and solely for the purpose of hatred of another then I don’t think that’s such a good idea.that’s my $.02
I am disgusted that a child of just 12 years old can walk into a Wizard of Oz shop and buy such a symbol of pornography. I’m going to start a grand jury investigation into Dorthy’s role in the peddling of smut to children. I won’t rest until this ring of porn is shut down no matter how much taxpayer money it takes.
Remember to vote for me, God’s candidate this November.
Sorry Jan, God told me not to vote for you.
Not so funny thing is the folks who have a problem with this flag and those who would go so far as to cut it down are likely the SAME folks who would probably lynch someone who desecrated an American flag.
Wish I lived in this town! I’d get me one of those flags just to piss the haters off!
But funny that if some self-appointed gay hater had not mentioned this, nobody would know or care!
hee hee hee
sorry to disappoint, but I was queer before I ever saw my first rainbow flag.
And if they will do this to a harmless and inanimate flag, what do you suppose they would do with a real live queer if they ever caught one?
heheh. “horse, make tracks”.
I wouldnt be waiting around to see WHAT KIND of christian this bigot was. ’cause you can bet your sweet ass she claims to be a christian!
And we have to ask “what’s the matter with kansas?” WTF?
…so following this line of reasoning, how come looking at the cross filled skyline in Wichita doesnt make everyone there christian?
I’m just askin’…
Me thinks she doth protest too much.
I bet she loves women’s sports and wears flannel…..
AND HAS SHORT HAIR!!!!!!!
hee hee hee. Probably drives a pickup too.
Ya know, my favorite game in the Wichita airport used to be people watching. As I viewed the passing women, I could only ask myself the eternal question….
Lesbian? Or midwestern?
…
I wonder what the ayatollahs terry, joe and fred have to say about this?
I wonder how long it will take fred and his merry band of church members to get themselves to Meade to protest?
And why was the comment section under the terry thread closed yesterday?
Protest from the ayatollah? Hackers for jesus?
Cowardice on the part of the SENIOR WE editors?
Enquiring minds want to know.
I guess we will have to tune in to their NATIONAL show to know what the ayatollahs think. Ya know, workin’ boys cant be givin’ it away for free. Like at church or anything. Nope.
If you gots somethin’ to sell, ya just dont give it away if you are a workin’ girl, er, I mean boy…
Oh, and you can find their NATIONAL radio show at the same moonbat time on the same moonbat channel every week.
So sayeth the rushster!!!
And does anyone think joe and terry are just a LITTLE TOO CLOSE to be just friends?
I’m just askin”……
I didn’t know queers had their own flag.Where’s the queer nation?Is it like the yippie nation in the sixties, you carry it around with you?
Shhhhhhhh Tracy. It is a secret.
The gay nation is kept in the same lock box we keep the gay agenda so you breedin’ bastids dont find it!
heheheheheheheh
Can you imagine the howls of protest we would hear if someone tore down all those crosses around town?
“You know, if one person, just one person does it they may think he’s really sick and they won’t take him.And if two people, two people do it, in harmony, they may think they’re both faggots and they won’t take either of them.And three people do it, three, can you imagine, three people walking in singin’ a bar of Alice’s Restaurant and walking out. They may think it’s an organization.And can you, can you imagine fifty people a day, I said fifty people a day walking in singin a bar of Alice’s Restaurant and walking out. And friends they may thinks it’s a movement.
And that’s what it is , the Alice’s Restaurant Anti-Massacre Movement, and all you got to do to join is sing it the next time it come’s around on the guitar.
You’re nutty.
Now, I was wondering if this J.R. pertaining to the restaurant, and the JR who posts here would be one and the same. Just asking.
Seems to me people who fly flags gotta do so for a reason, so if this is a fag flag (play on words there), who cares? Out west, in California, if your neighbors complain about your american flag, you gotta pull it down. Bet they’d let a fag flag fly (good name for a band).
To me this is a private property issue. Who are these assholes to think that they can trespass, vandalize, and destroy private property because they don’t like some perceived political message. Whether its a rainbow, christian, confederate, nazi, or other foreign flag.
There are people out there that think gays are not discriminated against. Phooey! Just look at the reaction from just a flag!
ROFL KFG…Lesbian or midwestern!
Dusty–
There’s no state in the Union where your neighbors can force you to take down your American flag.
Have you ever even BEEN to California?
Smoker,Yep. lived there most of my life, and it is true. Most of california housing is made up of developements, which mean rules, which mean if your neighbor doesn’t like your flag, down it comes. Feel free to check it out.
I figure I’ve been flying my freak flag for, Oh, about 50 years now, give or take, so some fag flag flying is hardly going to short circuit my brain.
KFG, you need to be gettin one of them for your restaurant. Call it FAG FLAG and FRIES TO GO. Damn, them Christian folk would just sizzle in their rightiousness. Can I get an AMEN!
>And they say they’re not backing down, especially not after someone recently cut down the flag.<
Goodness. Is the local constabulary investigating this hate crime?
Call me cynical, but this sounds like an inside job. Now all the area poofters and their life partners will flock to Meade for fun and frolic, to demonstrate a united front against bigotry. I can’t think of many other reasons anyone would want to go to Meade.
More importantly than a flag is the question about their child not living with them? According to the article the other day their 12 year old child does not live with them. Was the child taken away from them for some reason?
Anyone who has the time to notice that a rainbow colored flag is flying on some business pole HAS way too much time on their hands. Why isn’t this person busy working to help maintain our “bustling economy”?
Well, I’m glad it was just a flag those vandals destroyed. It could have been worse, much worse! And still could be.I had hoped we were finally emerging from the era when gay people were considered fair game for beating and killing without fear of consequences, but apparently, the barbarians still rule in Meade.
Typical Ruby. Blame the victim.
And you had all kinds of sympathy for Alexis’ mom and grandparents.
If they had flown a rainbow flag instead of a forced birth flag, would you be snarky about them?
I’m just askin’…
Here’s a tidbit from the Hutch paper:
‘The Knights – who frequently battle city hall over municipal affairs here and are no strangers to controversy’
Wonder what THAT’s about? Anybody know?
Jest axin’…
Who would Jesus hate?
I bet she loves women’s sports and wears flannel…..
I love women who wear flannel, they remind me of the good ole day back in the logging camp in the Pacific N/W. Miles from any town, no phones, no internet, why it was just me, frenchy, John, one handed Pete and of course our cook Kelly.
Oh the long, lonely, dark, cold nights we spend in that cabin! Miles from anyone else, bathing naked in a stream, racing each other back to the cabin. But oh God it got cold up there! Sometimes the only way to get warm was to sleep all under one blanket. It was Kelly who first suggested that we should sleep together, naked under one blanket to keep warm. At first the guys objected! But Kelly had a way of making us do what Kelly wanted…A sly smile, a lowering of the eyes.. that come hither look! None of the guys even me could resist Kelly, perhaps it was being so far from home, perhaps men were not meant to be without company if you know what I mean? But soon we got use to stripping down and jumping under the blanket with Kelly! So round it all the right places, one would think that Kelly would have had some fear? Why if you think about all those naked, lonely men under the blankets with you…. Doesn’t it make you shake?
But Kelly was special, braver then anyone else I had ever met! One time Kelly was walking through to the cut and was confronted by a Grizzly! Axe in hand, Kelly back that bear down!
Oh but the day I had to leave was a sad one in deed, but loggers don’t cry they are real men! That was a special good bye when Kelly walked me out to the closest road to be picked up. We said our good byes and embraced, the memory of that embrace kept me warm for nights to come. I miss the guys, but Kelly will always have a special place in my heart.
So if you ever come across a Marion Kelly, wearing flannel and singing a logging song. Say hello for me!
“Oh I’m a lumber jack and I’m OK I work all day and a sleep all night!”
AS to the flag, even today most might not even know that there is a special meaning to it if not told. Like wearing a bandana on ones head of a certain color, you would have to be in on the story to know it means any thing. Otherwise the difference between red or blue bandana is a personal choice. If not for the hoopla, most driving by would think it is just a colorful banner. Someone’s idea of a yard decoration, like a pink flamingo.
As was once said, “Sometimes a banana is nothing more then a banana” and as KFG pointed out about the crosses. It gains it meaning only if you believe in what it stands for. If there are some who do not have enough “personal worries” in their lives to think about, I will gladly share some of mine!
Writerdog,You ain’t sleepin under my blanket with me. You keep that banana unpeeled, ya hear!
Of course, I ain’t told ya all about the time me and bessie . . .
There will be no more cutting down of flags. Me and my boys are going into Meade and going to do some house cleaning.
- The Gay Mafia
And Ed says I’m nutty!!
what’s next? desecrate the “Rainbow’s United” building?
I always thought the rainbow was the symbol of God’s Covenant with all mankind. Seems it would be appropriate for ANYONE to fly a rainbow flag!
And we wonder why they call it “the hateland”.
“God gave Noah the rainbow signNo more water, but fire next time.”
Verse from “Mary Don’t You Weep” trad.
KSFG – I really do not care about the flag. If they want to fly that flag or any other flag then let them.
You on the other hand are only concerned about yourself. Take time to think about others (I know that will be hard but, give it a try anyway).
It appears that you are just one angry woman. How often do you have anything positive to say? Perhaps you should seek counseling.
“Here’s a tidbit from the Hutch paper:
‘The Knights – who frequently battle city hall over municipal affairs here and are no strangers to controversy’”
Ok, first off, publishing shit like that is John Montgomery’s trademark. No surprise that an ass wipe like jackstraw would support his bullshit.
But Jack, and Ruby, do you have any hard information about the victims here?
Or are you just dealing in rumors, lies, and innuendo like ususual.
Typical right wing talibaners. Half truths and smear tactics while smiling and saying “jesus loves you”.
Deceit is deceit. If you have proof, post it. If not, we see you for the hatefilled rumor mongers you are.
Smears. The last bastion of cowards.
Swift boats anyone?
hee hee hee hee hee hee hee
MEME ALERT!!!!!!!!!!
STS, you crack me up!!!!!!!!!!!
You always resort to the “you are a hatefull angry old woman” meme when you have nothing of substance to say.
When confronted with your own idiocy, you ALWAYS fall back on the whine about “you hate everything”. hehehehehehehehehehh
The mean liberals meme.
The angry woman meme.
The mentally ill if you point out the truth meme.
Heheh STS never met a right wing meme he/she didnt love!!!!
Yeah, sts please tell us more about the TRUTH, or do you just wanna join your taliban buddies on the rumors and memes couch?
STS, RUBY, LMNOP, JACK STRAW, etc.
PLEASE continue to show us your asses. I havent had so much fun since cheney shot an old man in the face.
PLEASE CONTINUE POSTING!
I am nothing without you……
Don’t you love the right-wing telling you that you’re too angry?
They’ve got Rush and Sean and Bill O and all the others bloviating righteous indignation 24-7, but YOU Ksfrmgrrl are the “angry” one.
As for medication, it looks like Rush did enough of that for everybody . . .
What I hate about Meade is there is one stop light between Greensburg and Liberal and I always catch the bleeping thing red. As if there was enough traffic for a signal light.The city has a great museum, though, and don’t forget to go through the Dalton Brothers place. It is a little cheesy, but fun for an hour or so.
Very interesting to see people using terms like “queer”, “fag”, “faggot” and “poofter” while trying to explain that they aren’t ignorant bigots.
Not very convincing.
>>I am nothing without you…<<
The feeling’s mutual, dear. I love nothing better than getting you lefties in full red-faced, sputtering, profanity-spewing mode. Generally all it takes is a few keywords like ‘Haliburton’ or ‘Swifties’, and you’re off to the races. And I don’t think we’ll need those true American heroes in this go-round. The Dems seem to have been taken over by the ‘Hezbollah’ wing (Dingell, Murtha, Lamont, Sheehan, etc.). It’s pretty easy to win elections when the opposition is aligning wiht America’s enemies.
I have no idea who John Montgomery is but I gather you don’t like him much. I posted a bit from the Hutch paper because it was one of the few things I found about this story that wasn’t a verbatim reprinting of the original. But I’ve learned through nefarious sources that Mr. Knight has had previous disagreements with the city government and the Meade newspaper. This incident is just the latest chapter.
I’m disappointed but not surprised that you (and a lot of other people) suspend their critical faculties when presented with a story that fits your preconceived notions about rural Kansas (but since you IS a rural Kansan, I guess, is it true that they’re ALL ignorant racist Republican bigots? What about you? Your friends and neighbors? I thought stereotyping was BAD, Mr. Garrison). You instinctively jump on the trash-Kansas bandwagon, no questions asked.
Thankfully this ’story’ seems to be dying a well-deserved death. There’s not much new on it….just Mr. Knight thanking all his new-found gay friends for the money pouring in, snarling about ‘hick towns’, and otherwise basking in fifteen minutes of fame. Good for him. But I doubt it’ll save his business, which is what I suspect it’s all about anwyay.
” But I’ve learned through nefarious sources that Mr. Knight has had previous disagreements with the city government and the Meade newspaper. This incident is just the latest chapter”
and still no credible references?
heheh. Who is redfaced and spewing? hehehe
Swiftboating at it’s finest. And we have yet to hear a retraction from Ruby that the son lives “away”. With another parent? With the devil? A concentration camp?
Ah yes, the smell of desperation in the air. Republican swiftboating means the elections will not be far behind.
You never fail to not disappoint me either… heheheheheheheheheheh
“But I doubt it’ll save his business, which is what I suspect it’s all about anwyay”
Mind reading again? hee hee
No, I think it is YOU ALL that make it all about the money. Not us.
Just a little bitter today jack straw?
You wouldnt be an angry leftist democrat woman, would ya?
heheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheh
Hey Farm Gal,As a card-carrying jackbooted lesbo feminazi, you’re not allowed to smile, let alone laugh! Scowl girl, scowl!
Dear Zekey, it depends on how you use those words.What’s the motivating factor?Is it hate, or simply sarcasm among friends?
I called frmgirl a “happy homo” earlier, and she hasn’t threatened to whip my bigoted ass!Seriously, my point is that it’s not necessarily bigoted. If you know the players you’d figure that out.
How big a’ ol’ gal are ya’ anyhows?Big enough to knock a lung loose on a real bigot, I’m sure!
Shoot, jacknoffstrawboy, we’re not red-faced about all the stupid shit you write anonymously,IT’S ALL GRAFFITI WHEN YOU’RE ANONYMOUS!We just spray right over it.In fact, I’m ashamed to admit I even read part of it.Post like a real person continue the graffiti. Trolls suck, and that’s all you’re doing. sucking.
You must be the same queer always looking for sex with graffiti in a stinkin’ gas station pisser some where?
Tracy: What is this ‘graffiti’ and ‘troll’ stuff of which you speak? Do you mean I don’t attach a real e-mail? It’s because I don’t want a mailbox full of love letters from borderline-psychotic-stalker-moonbats who don’t like what I write.
MORE graffiti.spray-spray.all gone
Tracy, I think you pricked a nerve.
Or maybe you just unnerved a prick.
KSFG – You are such a sad little person. You are just so full of hate and anger. I am even more convinced that you should probably seek some counseling. Someone makes a little comment and you really explode. It is not healthy.
At one time, the rainbow was a symbol that God would never flood the earth again. I am still offended that the homosexual community has adopted this symbol as their own. Now, a colorful flag flying in the air in Meade, Kansas, is suddenly a subject of controversy! Can’t a colorful flag just be seen as a colorful flag? I seriously doubt the children of Meade, KS, will suddenly all become gay. Does an American flag make foreigners American just by looking at it?
“Does an American flag make foreigners American just by looking at it?”
So long as it don’t make em republican, who cares?
Ruby — Don’t worry about Ksfarmgirl — this IS her therapy! Yes, she is angry, and yes, she finds a way to insert her lesbian lifestyle and liberal views into nearly every conversation — but she is generally harmless and kind of fun to argue with. I have learned to accept her as a vital part of this community, even though everything she stands for is everything I personally oppose.
“ruby”?
Let’s just take you apart and see how little is there.
“KSFG ‚Ä” You are such a sad little person.”
rube? I’ve met farmgrrl. She is neither sad nor “little”.
“You are just so full of hate and anger”
Hmmmmm I’d call it righteous indignation myself. I could also call it passion but clearly my side of thinking is not equipped to judge people their passions…..or loves. It’s those of your persuasion who get to decide and make laws as to that.
“I am even more convinced that you should probably seek some counseling”
Thank you for your learned assessment Dr. rube! Now not only are those you disagree with against God but they are also crazy? People who are discriminated against should just shut up about it right?Hey rube I’m sad too. That and occasionally angry. But in my case it isn’t due to any personal oppression against me.
It is because I must share a country and a world with such as you.
The right-wing fundies are frothing at the mouth on this thread aren’t they? STS, Ruby, Gertie and the crew are was vicious, nasty, hating people. I hope they know what God does to their kind!
This illustrates the sad fact that people tend to hide behind an idea, religion, what they were told, etc, as a valid reason for hate. Why can we not be tolerant? I disagree with a lot here in Kansas, but what good is it to scream my ideas? To turn people off?Judgement. Nasty habit to judge the person who commits acts or has ideas different from your own. Everybody has worth and a good side. Hating what you do not know is hating yourself for being so closed minded.In Meade, I hope Hypo-Christians fail to break the couple down. And those who look toward whatever heaven or idea or what they were told for a way to accept differences, thank you.I have friends of all types and my life is richer because of it.Fighting about it just breeds more hate and those who tear things apart make Fred Phelps laugh more.Sad

Apophis — First of all, I would like to say that I am not and I never have been a vicious or hateful person. I don’t appreciate being lumped into that category.
You may have noticed that I was trying to come to Ksfarmgirl’s defense, since Ruby seems to think she needs counseling. My views on most issues differ from KFG’s, and more than likely, YOURS. That does not make me vicious, hateful, or a religious fundie!
I am not frothing at the mouth over this whole flag controversy in Meade. I think the whole thing is stupid. A flag will not make a person gay. I also think that it’s sad that the symbol of a rainbow is now so controversial.
Please don’t put words into my mouth and and don’t assume that I am some ultra-conservative religious fundamentalist who is out to crush all the liberals.

Cool link, Farah.Do you ever read Jesus General?Funny stuff, not for the sense of humor impaired.
Indeed, I have read Jesus General. Btw, Sister Betty Bowers is one of my closest and dearest friends. She bills herself as “America’s Best Christian,” since she truly is a paragon of virtue, manners, and good taste. But as a women, she naturally knows her God-given place and how much the Lord loathes someone from the fairer sex that is a little too ‘uppity’ (I Corinthians 14:34, 35; I Timothy 2:12).
Sister Bowers runs an ex-gay ministry. Please visit B.A.S.H. (Baptists Are Saving Homosexuals): http://www.bettybowers.com/bashstart.html
Another Sis. Bowers’ ministry helps ladies overcome the seductive lure of “the Constitution” and “equal rights” with very sound, Bible-based values. This ministry is none other than B.I.T.C.H.

Pharisee Church..As you know, there are those who think that the church is exactly as portrayed in your cartoon humor.Funny, how satiracle humor really points out how utterly ridiculous those positions truly are…..

…and I notice RUBY still didnt provide any source or proof that the boy was “taken away” from his parents.
No apology ruby?
hehehehehe
Just an attack?
heheheheh
Come back and play with the grownups when you are not SWIFTBOATING with unsubstantiated assaults on the truth.
I think chronic lying can be helped with counseling, but then in republican land, if you have a weakness, pin it on your opponent.
Heheheheh. Notice how they change the subject when it comes to “put up or shut up” time?
Still waiting on proof or an apology RUBY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“Someone makes a little comment and you really explode.”
Ya, funny, I do that anytime someone tells a BOLD FACED LIE and then refuses to admit it or apologize.
Especially some rightwing, self righteous, holier than thou republican LIAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Acknowledge your lie, provide proof you didnt lie, or hang your head in shame RUBY.
if that is frothing red faced spewing, what do you call lying?
Doing something for jesus?
Oh, and this definition of a lie comes from the oh so holy and oh so republican nathan, so…
RUBY, Jackstraw, sts, lmnop…
It must be true if nathan says it.
“LIE: (dictionary.com)
-A false statement deliberately presented as being true; a falsehood.
-Something meant to deceive or give a wrong impression”
I think that fits both Ruby and Jack Straw and their blatent lies about the people in Meade.
But please, continue to tell us how honest and righteous you all are.
Hi all,
The “flag flap” just keeps getting uglier. For those of you who say it’s not about the intolerance some have for others, I hope you’ll reconsider your positions after reading the latest:
http://kansasequalitycoalition.org/viewevent.php?e=833&c=0
From the ever-humble yet tastefully decorated desk of Farah C. Church,
Yes, it is truly disturbing that some iniquitous individuals are allowed to parade themselves with impunity and forcing us true Christians(TM) to react in untoward ways. Why, it was only a generation ago when another group of “untraditionalists” provoked us true Christians to use attack-dogs, fire hoses, and a few feet of nylon rope to defend our God-given rights (Genesis 9:27). As you can attest, we Christians have mellowed over the years. Now, we can only scrape together a rather non-discript brick and a resulting broken window. However, sinners should not take our newly found “compassionate conservatism” as a sign of weakness or that we condone their filthy lifestyles.
To all you unsaved people out there (and you know who you are) AND to all saved people (those that have excepted Jesus as their P,L&S), here are a few common-sense, Christ-centered tips in helping your child not to adopt the very disgusting hobby of being an homosexual. I sincerely hope you take this Godly advise to heart and help prevent future “reactions” by Christians that only trying to help in the same adage (you have to break a few eggs to make an omelette).

I left Kansas 10 years ago, but still remember it fondly. What I remember the most is the goodness of (most of) its people. The bulk of the responses on this blog tell me that this hasn’t changed. Kansans may not be the most vocal force in gay rights, but they are a calm, steady, progressive wave of what it means to live and let live.
I miss y’all. Keep up the good work and God Bless.
