Man threatens to 'blow up' Las Vegas business over Biden/Harris, LGBTQ pride flag
LAS VEGAS (KSNV) — An anonymous man called Las Vegas business, Milk+T, early Thursday evening furious that they had an LGBTQ sign and a Biden/Harris sign hanging outside.
He asked why the signs were there, used homophobic slurs and threatened to blow the business up, according to the business owner.
Store Manager Caroline Sadorra is the one who answered the phone. She says the pride sign has always been there but the Biden/Harris sign was new.

Last Sunday Rep. Susie Lee hosted an event at the business and her campaign left the sign behind.
Beyah Delmundo, co-owner of the tea shop, says after this experience she thought about taking the sign down, but she decided against it.
"Right now is not the time to be silent and to be shy about what you stand for," Delmundo said.
The store owner says she plans to file a police report with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department Monday morning.
State Rep Susie Lee made a statement about the incident on Twitter saying in part “Violence or the threat of violence is absolutely unacceptable, it's time to turn the temperature down."
