In one case, the letters “USSR” appeared to have been scorched into the middle of a rainbow banner.

In D.C., Petworth resident Jason Ramsey said he lost a Pride flag June 11. A neighbor told him he saw a person grab it, run down the street with it and set it on fire. The incident was particularly disturbing to Ramsey, who said he had taken part in Pride celebrations the day before as an ally to the community.

In Montgomery County, police said the flags were burned in residential neighborhoods near downtown Silver Spring, including Mansfield Road, Wayne Place, Greenbrier Drive, Pershing Drive and Deerfield Avenue. He quickly found the neighborhood appealing, with caring neighbors, block parties, Christmas carolers and not one whiff that anyone objected to him being gay. His husband, Middleton, moved in with him in 2013.
