An Irvine, Calif. woman raised a rainbow flag on her home in a show of support for LGBT people last April only to become the target of antigay rhetoric and hate mail, reports The Pleasure Chest.com . But don’t worry, because Dr. Mary Pham beat the hate with an absolutely brilliant response that is actually also perfect timing for the holiday season!

Pham raised her pride flag last spring as her neighbors were raising seasonal and sports flags. A friend had warned her against the rainbow flag saying, “Not in Irvine, Mary,” but Pham hung her flag despite the protestation, according to our friends at the Pleasure Chest.
