Not too long after the UC Irvine student board banned the American Flag from their campus, now we have this:

UC Irvine Student Leadership Panel Votes To Remove American Flag From Campus Lobby CBS Los Angeles

PORTSMOUTH, Va. (WTKR) — Portsmouth Sheriff Bill Watson says he is furious after a group of judges told him to take down an American flag display.

Sheriff Watson said his agency got the American flag display as a gift from members of the Portsmouth Fire Department a few weeks ago.

It’s made of old fire hoses which a sign beneath it that reads, “A Tribute to Public Safety.”

Watson said he requested to have it mounted on the wall in the lobby of the courthouse but was shocked by what he was told.

Watson said he was told, “Not only do we not want it on the wall, we don’t want it in the courthouse.”

Watson said, “I just can’t believe that they don’t want to display the American flag in a courthouse, I mean that’s the most asinine thing I’ve ever heard in my life.”

A Slap in the Face Sheriff Ordered to Remove American Flag from Courthouse Alex Jones Infowars There s a war on for your mind

What agenda are the Flag Haters trying to accomplish?
 
The United Daughters of the Confederacy had a Confederate Flag on a private piece of property outside of the Caddo Parish Courthouse in Shreveport, Louisiana that was removed because it intimidated a black juror in a murder trial where Felton Dorsey, a black male, beat, tied, and burned a Fire Captain - Joe Prock (a white male) - during a robbery. He was originally given the death penalty but the NAACP stepped in and said that flag was too intimidating so the trial was reset and Dorsey's death penalty was removed.
 
If it had been a Democrat who presented the flag, we'd get complaints about the disrespect of making a flag out of old fire hoses.
 
This is the sign of the times, we are in serious trouble. We cannot have the flag of our country flying at a courthouse or the Sheriff's office. Where has our patriotism gone?

Liberals don't believe in countries. They want a world government.

The flag = country.

The reasoning the OP gave is nonsense. Here is a non-Alex Jones article that is actually from the city where the incident took place. Don't get me wrong, I think flag banning is ridiculous...but being dishonest to prove one's narrative is pathetic.

I live near Portsmouth, VA...haven't heard this story.
You heard of it. And you don't live near Portsmouth, VA. You live in Mexico City. Yuk.
You hate Mexicans too. How have they made you a failure? Please explain in detail
Failure ? That's what YOU are. Dependent on Affirmative Action. A worthless AA worm.
:lol: Still crying? You are not a failure because of AA. Look in the mirror, there you have your answer.

We fucked up when we handed our entire media and educational system to the left. It is a huge fucking mistake to have done so.

We can't win without fighting for them.

Show us how you'd fly that flag.
 
I don't believe the story is made up. I saw the video. If I were the sheriff, I would take it to a higher, possible more sane court.
