The LQBTQ+ flag banned in Utah

The LQBTQ+ flag will be banned from all government buildings, schools, and LDS Church properties.

By The Associated Press
SALT LAKE CITY — Utah became the first state to prohibit flying LGBTQ+ pride flags at schools and all government buildings after the Republican governor announced he was allowing a ban on unsanctioned flag displays to become law without his signature.

Gov. Spencer Cox, who made the announcement late Thursday night, said he continues to have serious concerns with the policy but chose not to reject it because his veto would likely be overridden by the Republican-controlled Legislature.

The new law could stoke conflict between the state and its largest city. City buildings in liberal Salt Lake City typically honor Pride Month each June by displaying flags that celebrate its large LGBTQ+ population. Local leaders have illuminated the Salt Lake City and County Building in rainbow lights to protest the flag ban each night since the Legislature sent it to Cox’s desk.

Seems problematic to constrain freedom of expression to this degree in government buildings.

I'm interpreting your response to mean that you would also be fine with state buildings in Utah displaying the Captain Moroni flag, correct?

I would love to see the Moroni flag fly right next to a rainbow flag. Deal.

So, it’s not banned in Utah, contrary to your thread title.

Looking at the flag, I just realized Moroni was a Roman Centurion. Interesting. Seems totally real.

Some people want to be Marvel heroes. Others want to be Jedi.

Historically, shouldn't they be dressed closer to either Spartan soldiers or the Vatican guard?
