I'd be willing to go to war with those two if they touched our flag.

I know that’s the English flag, but the UK is the only country I’m aware of where they’ve managed to convince a sizable enough of their population that their very own Union Jack flag is indeed a symbol of racism, to the point where people are afraid to even fly it.

This is why I hate liberals because they destroy everything: history, culture, art, beauty. A maggot is worth more than a liberal

There should be a pile high enough that they wouldn't need the pole.

Keep taking them down until they quit coming.

Boy, you're spot on with that photo. That's just sad. The guy with the Jamaican flag do rag probably lives in public housing.

I guess there are some people who fit your description, but The Union Jack is proudly displayed a lot in Britain. I bought a house there and it had a Union Jack couch. I’ve seen cars there that are painted with the Union Jack, and I’ve seen plenty of flags, though not as many American flags as you’d see here.

Correct. Liberalism destroyed the Roman Empire. Now, it's after the British and French.

I bet you’d be surprised if a survey were done in the US. I’m positive a sizable portion of our population believes our flag is racist too.

You know your government hates you when flying your own nation's flag is seen by them as an act of defiance.

I wonder how long the background check was for that chap to use the extendable shears.

We have a sizable population of stupid and/or gullible people.
