Yeah, unfortunately. I can definitely understand the controversy here, and honestly think the image just wasn't that great of an idea to begin with.

It's not a coincidence that the same people who have to persuade other people into believing they don't hate gay people are the same people who are unreasonably angry at this.

i personally think they would choose a better image to strive it off of

The idea seems that the original image is a symbolic icon of struggle, more so struggle in a war time, but struggle nonetheless. I can see where they were coming from, with the raising of the LGBT flag after generations of social progress during a time of struggle. It's just the message won't resonate well with a lot of people, who are reasonably upset that the image was, in their eyes, made in poor taste.
