While I'm 110% supportive of LGBT+, I don't think people painting crosswalks anyway they like is OK. They are safety features, recognizable from a distance, and it's not far fetched to think that casualties may occur. Painting official building's walls could be an alternative, for example. Both are technically vandalism, but these walls would not be a hazard.

Vertical faces of entrance steps? that'd be cool!

I'm sure they are very concerned about savety and that's why they need to repaint them

Have I said that? I do despise the the motivation, but that does not detract from the cold facts.

Russia: Rainbow Flag Illegal

USA: Rainbow Flag Illegal

So what's the difference anymore.

Russia has a capable (if thoroughly evil) leader?
