Religious Police Arrest Saudi Doctor For Innocently Flying Rainbow Flag


Comment on site - What do they do when there's a rainbow in the sky? Tell everyone to shut their eyes, or just go around chopping people's heads off?

A Saudi doctor has been arrested for flying the rainbow pride flag above his home in Jeddah, according to local media reports. He reportedly had no idea that the flag represented LGBT+ pride, saying that he had bought it from an online retailer after one of his children found the colors pretty.

The Saudi religious police, known as the Committee for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice, arrested the man after he raised the flag on a three-meter pole above his home.

He was reportedly bailed after an investigation, and the flag was removed. Cont.
