re: Southside Cafe in Slidell have a Nazi flag hanging up?

If you display Nazi memorabilia, you are a POS

If you post such a statement without any room for context or nuance, you’re a fricking retard.

Although I think that most people that are “offended” are usually people seeking out attention, I think the restaurant may want to rethink how they display the flag. Maybe hanging it on a wall sends the wrong message and in today’s climate, you should probably have expected this. You’re going to run off customers for what? Principle of ‘Murica?

If it’s a nice piece of memorabilia, display it a different way. In a case, with a placard or something explaining what it is and why it’s there. Hanging it on the wall most definitely isn’t the correct way to go about doing it.

If you look at the picture you can see what appears to be a small plaque on the bottom of the flag. I can’t say for sure, but I’d bet my last dollar that it says something along the lines of “this flag was captured by so-n-so US Army unit on so-in-so date in 1944-45 during so-in-so battle”.

A place that has good food, atmosphere and most importantly beer! Less Karens the better!

Guess it depends on what was painted in the parking lot.

Maybe that's the problem...today's climate. If this restaurant has had this display up for years and only now there is an issue, I'd prefer the owner not kowtow to the person who, in today's climate, suddenly has an issue with it and remain true to his own beliefs. Unless you're advocating for the correctness of "today's climate" than it would seem most would support the owner's decision and encourage him to leave it be. Removing it emboldens people like this woman.

Because being offended is the quickest way to get attention.

I doubt she was offended. It just seemed like a good idea to act offended when she was trying to achieve fake victimhood.

So close, yet, so far.

So instead of going inside and maybe asking about it, she decides to post to Facebook in hopes of becoming internet famous.

I hate people.

There is WW2 memorabilia all over the place there. It is one of the few places I actually like going to when I visit family in Slidell

Food there is great. I work in Slidell and will make it a point to go eat there more often.
