A gay hate pamphlet, criticising an Adelaide council for flying the rainbow flag in a show of support for gays and lesbians, has been referred to police.
The pamphlet has been dropped in letterboxes at some homes and distributed at a shopping centre, Greens MP Tammy Franks says, describing the material as offensive and discriminatory.
It was referred to police by Marion councillor Bruce Hull.
"The Greens condemn this abhorrent gay hate propaganda in the strongest possible terms," Ms Franks said.
"The decision by Marion Council to fly the rainbow flag should be celebrated, so it is disappointing to hear that a group of extremists is trying to undo this good work."
Ms Franks said people should contact all Marion councillors, letting them know they supported the flag being flown.
Marion councillors voted earlier this month to fly the rainbow flag permanently along with the Australian, South Australian, Aboriginal, Torres Strait Island and Marion Council flags.
