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:
Hilary Benn defends £50 million NI defence deal after Michelle O’Neill criticism
NI ‘probably’ worst in western Europe for cancer wait times – committee chairman
Police restraint did not lead to death of man, coroner finds
Man who stole Noah Donohoe rucksack says he ‘never met or saw’ schoolboy
