Judge Orders Gay Flag To Fly From St. Augustine Bridge

http://www.365gay.com/newscon05/06/060805florida.htm

The Rainbow flag was hung from St. Augustine's famed Bridge of Lions Wednesday morning ending a three-year battle between gay Pride organizers and the city.

The final skirmish in the dispute came late Tuesday when a judge ordered the city to allow the St. Augustine Pride Committee to display the flag.

The Committee and Equality Florida, the state's largest LGBT civil rights group, filed suit Monday accusing the city of discrimination. (story)
