Pride flags were raised this morning over Dallas Love Field and in front of Dallas Police Headquarters. Director of Aviation Mark Deubner noted that 5 million people who are expected to fly through Dallas Love Field during June will see the flag.
Police Chief Eddie Garcia raised the flag over DPD headquarters on Botham Jean Boulevard at noon where he said he was proud it will fly for the month.

In my piece on Nevada’s Democrat Socialists of America takeover of the Democrat Party in the State, I gave this warning about Texas:
“With the full opening of the state and the lifting of any mask mandates, Texas businesses who are choosing to not maintain mask requirements for their establishments will now become the focus of harassment.”
Now the City of Dallas thinks that this is a good idea:
