You Can't Make This Shit Up

I don't care if the owner isn't actually punishable, it's complete bullshit that he flew the Mexican flag above the American. Fly a home nation's flag below any other and you'll get this same reaction from somebody out there.

He needs to cough up the money for a second flagpole if he wants to show solidarity.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

EDIT: Fresh Frank has the right idea about what I'm saying.

I don't agree that nothing can be done to him, since I don't know the laws applying to infractions against proper flag usage. All I'm saying there is "in the event that nothing can be done to him..."

It should also be a given that my comment is opinionated and the use of "need" shouldn't be seen as "need, because his life/livelihood is at stake". But then again, if he continues to fly it below the Mexican flag, I wouldn't be surprised if the place becomes a target for vandalism.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

He's not a goddamn hero for cutting the flag down and running with it, but what the owner did was ignorant, insulting and inflammatory. The vet's reaction, while not justified, is understandable.

How ya doing, buddy?

Which is why I didn't say he had every right to take down the flag. I said he wasn't justified.

The problem with just writing this up as "racy free speech" is that there isn't a law that says I can't be a racist motherfucker, while there is a law that says I can't fly a national flag over another national flag, that I can't burn the flag unless the stars are cut off from the stripes, or whatever else. Punishable or not, the guy as a decent US citizen would want avoid breaking any sort of law.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
