Southern Discomfort
...when it suits our supreme purpose I guess.
From tonguetied.us.
A strip mall owner in Wisconsin is catching hell for daring to fly a Confederate flag on his private property as part of a display of his collection of some 18 historically significant flags, reports the Green Bay Gazette.
Norm Watermelon is flying the flag outside his history-themed Heritage Village Shoppes in Allouez. But it keeps getting stolen, and a couple locals say that the flag is racist and has no place on public display.
The flag flies alongside an oversized Old Glory; the flag for the battle of the Alamo, a St. George Cross, the Continental flag used at the Battle of Bunker Hill in 1775 and a replica of a Betsy Ross original, among others.
**end**
Way to claim the moral high road there pal. "Ooohhhh, that awful flag offends ME, I'll just steal it." Putz.
Norm Watermelon? That HAS to be a pseudonym...
Guess the rights of citizens to behave as they choose on their private property has been usurped. That might come back and bite a few folks some day. God save and protect us all if this is allowed to continue...your yard might be next. Especially if you fly a (fill in the blank college name) football helmet banner and I don't like that team...I now have the right to steal it as it offends me. All these geeks with their Dale Junior crap all over their cars might come outside one day to find that I've removed it from their cars, because I don't like Dale Junior and seeing that 8 everywhere offends me, and this mess gives me the right to remove it lawfully if it offends me. Right?
Must be Monday...ain't even 9:00 and I'm pissed off already.
