Antifa, short for Anti-Fun, and other hate groups are not welcome because they are not happy and fun," the group said onThe group said the city of Boston"rejected" its application to raise a straight pride flag at city hall, and said Boston and its mayor did not create"a supportive environment for straights and equality for all.
