I don't see any issue with flying a flag. Hardly a bold political stance at this point, but a nice gesture none the less. I don't understand why anyone should have a problem with it. It's a fricken flag for fooks sake.
Edit: Also, i don't think there is any political incentive whatsoever to boycotting the Olympics.Far too unsubtle and basically only amounts to a big #### you to the host country and will only be ignored and perhaps even fuel the fire of those on the other side of the issue. Makes a much stronger point to passive-aggressively make your point and you lose that opportunity as soon as you boycott. Getting a bit of a kick out of things like these kinds of flag raisings. Did you guys notice the German teams Olympic apparel? Obviously a nod of disapproval to Russian policies regarding LGBT equality and its great.
(apologize for the large image. Will put in NSFW tags as soon as i figure out how.
