Couple threatened for flying gay pride flag

Darpan News Desk Darpan, 30 Jul, 2014 10:57 AM
    A couple residing in Longueuil, Que., has received an anonymous threatening letter for hanging a gay pride flag from their balcony.
     
    The same-sex couple spoke to CBC and wants to remain anonymous for the safety of their children. 
     
    Apparently, the couple found the letter one night after they returned home from a friend's place.
     
    The letter that was written in French says, "For your well-being, remove the homosexual flag! Immediately, as soon as you receive this letter. We don’t want people like you in our neighbourhood. Remove it, keep quiet and we will spare you. And you can continue to live your abominable lives without prejudice. Keep it and you will suffer the consequences.”
     
    Soon after receiving the letter, the couple informed the police and also removed the flag.
     
    Further, the duo told media that they ensure at least one adult stays home to look after the kids.
