The Chair of Newry Rainbow Community says a woman who carried an anti-DUP placard in the Belfast Pride parade did so in anger.
Rory Rafferty's comments follow those of MLA Jim Wells who says it was a hate crime and wants to press charges.
The placard criticised the DUP using a four-letter word.
The assemblyman is also calling for the woman to be charged with grossly offensive behaviour and for being in contravention of Parades Commission regulations.
Rory told Q Radio's Iveren McCallion that the DUP must look at the bigger issue:
Jury sworn in at Natalie McNally murder trial
‘Absolute relief’ for Chloe Mitchell’s family as trial to go ahead next month
Search operation under way after reports of man going overboard from ferry
Sentencing Bill, including Charlotte’s Law, to be introduced shortly: Naomi Long
Man dies following crash between car and van in Hillsborough
