I'm pretty left-leaning by this board's standards but these people are pussies if they think the colors of the flag of the country they live in are "aggressive".

I'm so tired of the offended culture that we live in. I grew up in the 80s and if you ever let on that something bothered you then people did it more. If a fat kid got upset for being called fat then everyone should call them fat. The ones who ignored it got left alone.

Stop looking for shite to get offended by. And if something does offend you then fricking ignore it.

Pussies

We, as a society, are fricked. This is the flag of our country.

Time for a civil war to start over.

Yall thought I was joking when I said California wasn't America anymore.

I was serious. That's another country now.

I hate to say this, but this country needs a major international crisis or conflict to reunite the USA and get our very own citizens to have pride in this country once again.

The point of being an immigrant is you want to become an American.

As far as visitors, every country has a flag. I would expect to see that flag if I visit.

Yeah it’s a shame people assume that it’s minorities who are vocal about nonsense like this. No, it’s usually guilt ridden white people.

Imagine being a guest in someone else's country and telling them they shouldn't showcase their flag because it offends you.

This is liberals' interpretation of what they think immigrants think. Just like fake race hate crimes. They've never encountered legit racists so they go over the top a do what they think actual racists would do
I'm sure you're right. I never really hear about this kind of stuff from immigrants themselves. It's always some white guilt laden leftist or natural born American La Raza type.

I think the ultimate test to recognize if something has crossed the line into being absurd, is when you genuinely can’t tell if it is something The Onion wrote, or is a legitimate news story.

This easily passes The Onion test.

How do you expect a country to last when there’s a solid swath of the country that hates the nation they live in?

the only thing that gets people like that sympathetic towards their own nation is mass killing of their own.

having pride in this country is looked down upon by many here

I don’t think it’s actual immigrants doing this. It’s worthless white liberals fantasizing about victimhood again.

The problem is because time and time again people have folded and given in to the BS of all that idiotic method of thought

Okay. But it's not the police department's problem that those people's feelings are hurt.

It's called country pride.

I think that you are 100% correct...

Those the say The Flag is a bad symbol for whatever reason, would sure stand behind it if something was coming to try and take it all away.

Can you imagine what it would be like if WWII started today.... Imagine Auto makers quite making cars, no imports from Japan or China. Internet and cell phone usage rationed. The Draft, Clothing, food and gas rationed... folks would be screaming that their civil liberties were being abused.
