Idaho Banned The Pride Flag. So Boise Wrapped the Flagpoles Themselves In Pride Colors. As public acknowledgements of LGBTQ life come under attack, local governments and citizen activists alike are fighting back in bold and creative ways.

1. Idaho banned the pride flag on government property. So Boise made the pride flag their official city flag, which allowed them to fly it.

Then Idaho banned new city flags.

So in response, Boise has now wrapped the poles themselves in rainbows!

Next! Transylvania.

The field of blue, red, and gold is defaced with the arms of Transylvania; the arms feature a black eagle on blue with the sun and moon over a center red stripe and then seven red towers on a gold field lower, representing the Hungarians and the Transylvanian Saxons - from 1756.

Hey, it's Trans Day of Visibility. We salute all the trans folks out there who are visible and we offer our warm support for trans folks who are not visible (yet).

Let's do a thread on trans* flags!

The flag of the Salta Province, Argentina; a burgundy field with two horizontal stripes top and bottom. Center is a seal of the Sol Argentino on a six-pointed white star in a field of sky blue, surrounded by 23 six-pointed stars in gold with burgundy circles in the center.

We always appreciate a somewhat unique flag (tincture? color?). From the Province of Salta, Argentina, comes a medium-busy flag from the seal-on-a-bedsheet tradition (deprecatory). However, they utilized a burgundy color and two black strips as their very bold (laudatory) background!

Nothing like making a statement with flags, and that statement is:
"To hell with the people of Minnesota."

There is nothing, per se, wrong with the iconography; however, in our humble opinion, the flag (like most US State flags) is very poorly designed.
