On the anti-gay stance at the Russian Olympics

Did anyone else notice that the uniforms worn by the flame carriers contain all the colors of the rainbow?

Possibly a cynical propaganda move... or maybe they're just clueless.

Huh, and I'd thought somebody had slipped it past when the guys in charge weren't looking/thinking.

I think that's probably just supposed to be the colours of the olympic rings.

Which makes the crackdown on rainbow flags look even sillier.
