I could go on a flame war over "it takes zero effort not to be a pedantic but also ignorant ass just for the sake of it." as an answer to a civilized, reasoned comment, but I don't want this place to be Reddit. Insults really detract from your argument.

Please do tell us how rainbow is less visible than white lines that blend into all the other white lines.

Please do cite any stats you have that show increased accident rates during pride month or in cities with rainbow cross walks.
