So let me set the record straight. I'm the managing partner of Southside Cafe and business partner of the Marine.

We do not own any of the memorabilia or pictures that hang on our walls. They are displayed at the request of the donor. If the donor requests that picture or memorabilia be returned, we return it. We hang these items to honor their families along with the Veterans that came before and after them. We had no intention of removing the flag.

We appreciate the support we've received on this thread. But, before you start insulting people you don't even know you should get the facts. I'd be glad to give any TD guys a tour of our place. And if you are so inclined, you can insult us to our face.

Good on y'all for not backing down to the mob. If the donor of the flag was harassed by them into rescinding his donation, shame on those ignorant bastards for doing that to him. Y'all's food is great btw.

I think it’s a pity that donor decided to request the removal of the flag but I respect your compliance.

I do think the donor is going to be very disappointed because they’ll soon discover that the WW2 museum rarely rotates new items into their display despite an enormous wealth of new donations. I know this firsthand after having donated a bunch of my Father-in-Law’s memorabilia to them only to discover it has been relegated to permanent storage and they won’t return it. I understand museums can’t display everything but they should be open and honest about what they plan on doing with it when it’s offered to them.

theyre losers who don’t own anything and have nothing of value to lose. Don’t worry about them... they’re just virtue signalers.

Well, the post I responded to didn't have that information at the time and the post said that it was taken down without mention of the owners requesting it. I still stand by the statement I made when it was portrayed as the restaurant taking it down. Obviously it's out of the hands of the restaurant so that changes things.

Regardless, the outrage mob wins again and it won't be long until museums are cleansed of any non pc items.

I said it way back on page 2 I think, but exactly how much effort did it take for this offended jackass to take that original photo from the parking lot while simultaneously not getting any of the other memorabilia on the walls in the shot? One look at the restaurant from instead indicates that they probably spent ten minutes attempting to line up the photo so as to disguise the fact that there was a ton of other things in there which gave context to the display.
