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:
Family pay tribute to ‘like a light’ Jimmy Cricket ahead of his funeral
Man in his 60s dies after fire in Londonderry flat
Robbie Butler named Stormont health minister
Police probe report of shots fired at house in Lisburn
Death of former All-Ireland winner in road crash ‘heart-breaking’
