“An Insult to Our Country”: Based Jamaicans Call Pride Flag at US Embassy an Imperialist Symbol of Hostility to Their Culture and Values

Some Jamaicans are beginning to actively demand the removal of the rainbow “pride flag” from the US Embassy in Kingston.

A TV news report out of the Caribbean island nation features interviews with protesters who object to the flag as a symbol of cultural imperialism, specifically as a hostility to Christianity and the Jamaican way of life.

“You have to understand what that multicolored flag represents,” said a spokeswoman for the Jamaica Coalition for a Healthy Society. “It represents normalizing perverse sexual behaviors and lifestyle choices, behaviors and lifestyles that lead to disease and death. Our Christian duty is to speak the truth in love.”

Another protester claimed the flying of the flag violates the 1961 Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, citing Article 3.1 (c) and sub-articles 20 and 41.
