After Friday’s landmark Supreme Court decision in favor of nationwide marriage equality, a lot of companies, including BuzzFeed, changed their online avatars to reflect their pride. 🌈

Arkansas NBC affiliate KARK4 News was not one of them. The station uses the famous NBC peacock logo as its Facebook profile picture.

The peacock made its debut on NBC way back in 1956 to showcase color television. According to the website Famous Logos, “the NBC logo is undoubtedly one of the world’s most iconic and instantly recognizable logos.”

One man, though, seems to have been a little confused.

I once got some good ole boy reduced to spittle flying apoplexy when he was talking about separate but equal
as a way to go.
All I said to him was..."So I take it you are against integration?"

He mistook the word to mean segregation and put on a fine loud eye popping yelling blather about how much he was FOR integration.

You know, that book you claim to follow, but have never read? Ask your minister about the rainbow in that book. Maybe he can find the page for you. Maybe.

Moron!
