    Are there photos of people exercising their freedom in a way that I personally wouldn’t? Yes. Am I glad they have that freedom anyway? Also yes.

    I understand that it’s okay for people to be different from one another. The amount of people who deny that simple fact astounds me.

      I can tell you the pull of conformity in small-town USA is absolute, if you look from an outside perspective…they just don’t get it and are content with ignorance.

      I personally wouldn’t be glad that public indecency is considered freedom. You can be gay or whatever but you don’t have the right to do indecent things in public, no matter who you are.

        I’m not 100% sure that guy in the cowboy hat is actually “indecent”, so I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt.

    This feels a bit subtle, they should have gone with a black and white photo of Hitler and “Miss me yet?”

    Look at all that freedom, as intended.

    Sorry (no, really, it’s defeating) that the right thinks it’s a meme because they are too stupid, hypocritical, selfish, and malicious.

    Ah, the classic right-wing technique of taking pictures from Folsom Street Fair and putting them next to pictures from Pride to imply they are the same thing.
