Pride Flag Triggers Controversy During Orange County Fair Meeting
Residents clashed during an Orange County Fair and Event Center board meeting Feb. 25 over a gay pride flag hanging at the fairgrounds.
The flag at the center of the controversy has been on display since May 23, 2019, when the board approved a resolution to hang it as a symbol of inclusiveness.
As some condemned the symbolic gesture, others staunchly defended the flag.
Chairwoman Natalie Rubalcava-Garcia said called the Pride flag “the unifying symbol of inclusion.”
“[The Pride flag’s presence] ensured all people, regardless of race, creed sexual orientation or gender felt represented and welcomed at the fair,” Rubalcava-Garcia said.
