re: Guy at Walker McDonalds throws a fit about flag not being at half staff

I read that this morning. He comes off as a self-important a-hole who wants some sort of special treatment and recognition. While our military members (active and retired) deserve our respect, their service does not mean they get to demand anything. It's a fricking McD's. He was really proud of himself for bullying some kid who is working a minimum wage job. If it was the post office or city hall, I might understand why he would be bothered by the flag not being half staff. But I highly doubt McD's employees pay attention to the news and even knew anything about it. But, I guess they're supposed to stop what they're doing to make this guy feel good about himself. What a dick.

It's not a flag at a gov building, dude acted like a little punk. Get over it man, it would have been nice. But as long as the flag isn't upside down or some stupid crap. Whatever

I dont post here often. But, what I'm reading here is exactly what he is talking about. It may be ceremonious, but, believe it or not that flag does mean something to some Americans. The lack of respect and loss of morality is what was shown. You sit behind your mama's computer and trash people. It's really sad that you don't have respect for what that flag stands for. But, I guess that's to be expected from those that haven't had to sacrifice or work for anything.

Can you say it is insensitive? Yes you can
Can you say McDonalds should have shown more tact? Yes you can
But what they did was not wrong at the end of the day.

Did you sacrifice to protect rights or just the rights you believe in?

Here is the dilemma For every a-hole that gets offended that the flag wasn't flown at half mass, there is another a-hole that is offended that the flag is flown at all and another a-hole that would get offended if you flew the flag at half mass. This country is getting full of a bunch of assholes that want to run around filming their hissy fits while sticking their faces in other people's business.
This guy could have driven by and forgotten the whole thing in a matter of minutes but he wanted to try to drum up support for some organization.

That is what FB is about, I have about 3-5 guys who sent me a message telling me to meet them somewhere and say what I typed to their face.

Nice...Feel free to @gmail me their names so I can make sure they're already friends of mine

Yes, you have the right to say what you like. Saying shut the frick up is rude and unsolicited. You have the right to say it. You have the right to reap the benefits of your right. I hope one day you have the opportunity to exercise your right to free speech in person one day.
Either way, I still think your just a punk kid sitting behind mama's computer or a meth head from Catahoula Parish.
