Man rips pride flag from Lau Pa Sat food stall's counter & throws it at staff

The owner said that the pride flag would continue to be on display at the store's two outlets.

Nigel Chua |  January 19, 2021, 02:11 PM

 

Staff at health food stall SMOL Singapore in Lau Pa Sat were confronted on Jan. 18 by a man about a rainbow flag displayed at the cashier counter.

 

 

A video of the incident was uploaded online by the owner of the stall, Charmaine Low, who was apparently at the stall at the time.

According to the caption on the video, the exchange between Low and the man began with him asking what the flag was.

When Low explained that it was to show support for the LGBT+ community, the man apparently said: "Do you know that this is a public food court? Not everybody support LGBT!!?? How can you put this flag??"

He also called the stall's staff "the kind of people who is destroying Singapore" and told them to "go to hell".

Low, calling the incident "homophobic abuse", expressed concern for her team's safety, but said that "we will not stop displaying our little pride flag at both our outlets".

The brand has another outlet at PLQ mall.

 

What the video showed

 

The video shows the man dressed in business attire with a tie and lanyard, walking past the storefront.

He pauses, appearing to notice the flag, and walks over to confront the staff about it.

He starts to walk away, but turns back, apparently to engage with one of the shop's staff, appearing to inquire about the flag.

The man gesticulates vigorously in their short exchange, before walking over to the flag, unceremoniously grabbing it from where it was mounted, and throwing it at the staff.

The man appears to leave the bewildered staff with some parting words, pointing a finger at them accusingly, as he walks out the glass doors which he entered from.

Reactions online

 

Across SMOL Singapore's posts on both Facebook and Instagram, commenters expressed their shock, and disapproval of the man's actions.

A number of commenters called for legal action against the man, urging SMOL Singapore to report the matter to the authorities.

Many others, though, pledged their support for the stall and said that they would patronise and support SMOL Singapore, including some who said that they had not heard of the establishment prior to the video being circulated.

 

SMOL Singapore's support for LGBTQ community

 

SMOL Singapore's owner, Charmaine Low, explained in the video's caption that she supports "diversity and inclusion in all its forms, especially the inclusion of marginalised communities such as the LGBTQ community".

She added that she believes in using SMOL Singapore "as a platform to amplify the voices of those who are not heard," and that the "small pride flag" shows solidarity with the LGBTQ community and also served as a conversation starter with their customers.

 

"Discrimination against LGBTQ people in Singapore is well and alive"

 

Low described the events as "an unfortunate incident with someone who was not interested in having a peaceful conversation".

She said that the incident was also a reminder that "discrimination against LGBTQ people in Singapore is well and alive".

Expressing concern for her team's safety, Low nonetheless said that "we will not stop displaying our little pride flag at both our outlets".

Low also called on "other homegrown SMEs to show their support for the LGBTQ community in their own ways".

"There is so much more work to be done to promote understanding, love and tolerance for this community," she said.

A very unfortunate event that shouldn't have happened . Let us all stick to the topic, exposed the man in red tie and pressure the authority to act on him and shaming him to the max.  Everyone who happen to be nearby SMOL please give your support to their business. Shame on that devil in proper shirt and ties. It goes to show physically prim and proper does not necessary mean the person is good person. Ugly at its best.

Every main stream platform should broadcast the ugly sight as evidence that discrimination against LGBT exist and PAP should stop denying.

Maybe poor man got rejected by everyone in sauna and feeling very angst and dejected.

[Guest Auntie Tetchy]

He was acting like a tetchy old maid, menopausal bitch, PMS sufferer or someone who yearned to get laid but never got laid. 

 

Maybe he felt triggered by the flag due to the fact that he had missed the boat to come out, that he had gotten married to a woman, had children and is now contemplating divorce due to feeling stuck in an unfulfilling marriage.

 

The flag reminded him of what others are getting or going to get that he had missed or could never accept getting for himself.

Look at his tummy. So big like a giant truck wheel protruding out of his skinny body. Gross ! Absolutely not our type

Not true. It is either their husband is ugly or their wife is ugly and the undersexed straight people needed an object to vent their frustration and then wandered into our bright colorful 

flag which became a proverbial bull's eyed of hate and the rest became history.

 

Let's pin this topic for daily update on whether Singapore authority is going to take action against such life endangering discrimination .

 

Keeping my eyes glued here. 

[Geeky2020]

I think with this incident, it shows how important is solidarity of the community to support LGBT equality message to the public.
 

Or else, kids this generation will think that such behaviour of bullying LGBT community is okay.

 

Would love to see if more and more restaurants and other establishments put the rainbow flags in solidarity

It's pretty sad to read the comments in hardwarezone and other news medium. So much homophobia. Sometimes I wonder why is there so much hatred for people who are different from them.

Highly possible. A typical unhappy local uncle. Most people are in fact lost. They just follow what people telling them to live life. Children must study hard, get Ace in school, goto uni, major in a subject as told by others, get graduated, join a big company and work, find a gf, get married, get HDB, get offspring and repeat the cycle onto their children. They only realise they have not been their true self when they hit old age. They have been living in other's people life trying to match other's expectation. They feel unhappy. They hate those whom live free and able to persuade their own way of life. They thinking since they can't get their own life, why they should let other get theirs. And that's why they begin to attack and destroy others. In fact, they are pity people.

Do you see ONLY understanding positive commentaries, impartiality good vibe in this THREAD? We have OUR FAIR SHARE of negative people with bias, emotional bias judgement and toxicity. At times, I wonder if we even know why some of the hostility we faced demonstrated by "the other side" come from. Our side perpectuate that misunderstanding and hate too. For people who think they are victims, I see a lot of hate here as well. Having experienced discrimination, you would think we would behave better with humanity?

 

THERE ARE ALWAYS BLACK SHEEP on all sides or group of people. Because of the few bad sheep, you do not start to paint everyone with the same brush. Like what you see happen at the US Capitol Hill. We are better than those despicable politicians.

 

I patronise SMOL off and on for their healthy food when I was working and on my way home from Paya Lebar. The staff is friendly, but they never push their corporate causes like LGBTQ+ in your face but kept it all about service and food. THAT should be the way.

 

From the conversation quoted by the staff in the news, THERE WAS NO INDICATION this asshole was a TRUMP supporter OR ANTI TRUMPER. He could be someone mentally disturb or is your typical anti-gay person with an axe to grind. No political statement of specific was hinted NOR can you make out from just a short verbal exchange.

 

I roughly think I know what triggered it but again without proof I will not jump to conclusion on it. Till more information comes into view. Let's cool down and not get bent out of shape jumping to conclusion, then go outside and act on vengeance and make matters worst. Getting in people's face is what starts so many of this shit situation in society.

 

He is an asshole crackpot and that's about it.

 

I am glad the staff did not escalate things further. Just being professional and took the right course of action. If anything that is what being an exemplary person all about, FIRST. That all it should be and not focus primarily on which sex you sleep with outside of work.  We are better than the zealot SJWs of the West.

 

Know why I keep up with the politics and social cultural mess in the US? I hate to see it fester here. Look at the shit storm there and get a good idea if it is takes hold locally, we will have one of our own too. So chill folks. We are gay but we are not dumb asses. Well most of us anyway.

people fear what they do not understand. the unknown can create monsters where there are none.
 

there is also a malay saying, " you don't know, therefore you can't begin to love/understand"

 

which is why, within the big picture, it is important for us to be visible and not just during pride parade or pink dot,

 

gay men particularly need to be extra brave to come out and destroy this unknown factor.

 

(from my own perception, sapphic couples are more acceptable because women are gentle by nature.)

 

 

my next door neighbours are actually staunch christians, active in church, hdb, community affairs, yet we earned their trust and respect over time,

 

despite them knowing we are a gay couple, they see we have better values, morals and manners than normal straight people.

 

they may never accept me and my partner as "correct" or "sinless" or whatever, but at the core, they cannot deny that we are good people.

 

and that helps to shape their perception of other gay men/couples too. that we are also worthy of respect as human beings.
 

it is a long journey, but we have to do it, unfortunately.

agree 100%. these are golden words, i see it all the time.

they just follow the "script" given to them blindly, and then realise many years down the road that they are unhappy. not only that, they are trapped. and knowing they are trapped for life, actually makes them very angry and hateful. my straight ex-supervisor once remarked that he hated his wife and kids, i was like, "whoa" when he said it to my face. i wonder how he takes it out on them, and other people. sad case.

 

as for this angry uncle in the video, he is lucky he is not in Europe or the States, because this is seen as an assault on the community. he would be exposed and hunted down, forced to resign, have to issue apology, slapped with court case, etc etc.

 

he is very lucky that Singaporeans in general are quite meek and apathetic. maybe that is why he did it, because he knows he can get away with it. another sign of a bully.

Well, maybe his children/family members are gay & he is devoted Christian 😷

[mate69]

Yes people typically fear the unknown...and this fella is no different

he is scared of what he doesnt know or understand, which is the lgbtq community

that said, his actions must not be condoned or brushed aside

in fact this is a golden opportunity for the community to demonstrate solidarity and stand up to bigotry

the learning potential/upside from this saga is even greater than pinkdot, i feel. That's not to say that PD has no place in SG society. It has.

You will slowly find out that our SPF will choose to pussyfoot around LGBT issues and insist the man did not commit any arrestable offence, it was just harrasment, so they will not act upon it; if that man said he is a Christian, the police will insist he isn't wrong to have acted upon his religious conviction as he did not physically hurt anyone.

 

The most they will do is appear in groups more often to catwalk and strike a pose in their uniforms, showing off their nifty pussyfootings at Lau Pa Sat.

There, the aftermath. A Happy ending for the food joint.

 

Great support and business has spiked after news of the incident got around. It proves, THINGS ARE NOT ALWAYS AS BAD as short-sighted zealots among us claimed here or outside I am sure.

 

Just because of the few black sheep fuckers, one should not jump so quick to take a negative stance that everyone not like us hates us. That just makes matters worst if this thinking continues.

 

No one say the road towards a better society or acceptance will happen overnight or even in OUR lifetime (to see it) but we still have a duty to keep building towards it. IT ALSO includes not shoving or remind people about LGBT Rights each and every opportunity. No one is happy if messages keep getting shove at your face like everyone is against YOU. Keep doing that and YOU become the problem everyone will deal with.

 

Action speaks louder. We are not in this for the virtue signal limelight. Be part of the solution. Not the problem guys.

Good for you. One day they kill you and your family got thousands of dollars from sympathetic donations then it's no more a crime.

 

Your ostrich submission to being bullied don't bring understanding like they'll respect your oh so clever neutrality restraining. 

We who fight back become the problem? Are you serious or you think you're oh so intellectual /shit?

 

You think being submissive sheep they'll leave us alone? 

 

No, it's our collective expression of our human rights that will at least warn them off. But if the law closed one eye to our basic rights, they'll be embolden to do worse things next time and you'll be there to submit to them and cheer them on.

This world is now very small when virus from China stopped the whole world and killed 100s of thousands.

 

What happened to the gays in the US ( evangelists shooting gays at Orlando gay bar) is affecting us here. The churches here have cultural exchanges visits with those South churches, they refer to each other as brothers. They copied their fire and sermons podcasts.

 

They are radicalising under the patronage of Trump for years. They want to export their "good news" throughout the world. Unlike the Talibans, they are much more sinister to not wake up the frog like you while boiling it alive. 

 

This incident may seem minor to you but underlying it is the same kind of intolerance that bombed the World Trade Center.

It's a small little rainbow flag, not a huge "in your face banner" and you say we are in their face for gay rights? Are you serious? Or you so submissive that it's not even allowed to say the love that dare not speak its name?

[yoyo74]

When the public sees people cycling in the nude, they will associate gays with reprobates and perverts. Who is the one hindering progression? Empty vessel makes the most noise. Pls continue proving my point.
