As a veteran having served in two war zones myself this kind of crap really gets me mad too. What is with people that hate this country, hate our American flag and detest our way of life? Obviously they have never stepped foot outside this country and seen what the rest of the world is really like. It makes me sick to my stomach to see how many people sit around and are content to complain about how terrible we are as a nation to the point of wanting to strip away any kind of display that represents our combined heritage and sense of pride in God and country.
I think that condo association should be shipped over to Iraq and get a little taste of the real world, better yet pick up one of those bad evil scary black automatic rifles and stand a post. Bet they couldn't hack 24 hours. Those pompous liberals, if this country and it's flag represents something that you detest so much, I encourage, no I beg you, please leave and take your ideas with you.
Me I did my time, am darn proud of the fact that I had the honor and distinction to do my part to defend this nation. I want no thanks for my service, and if you ask any other vet you'll hear the same thing. What you will also hear loud and clear is how dare you disrespect the right of anyone, especially the wife of a solder in action the ability to display an American flag. Instead they should as good neighbors embrace her, support her, show her encouragement and thank her for all she must endure, the heartache, loneliness, and endless worry that her husband is in harms way each and every day. Nobody can even imagine what it's like to deal with that kind of separation and anxiety unless they too have been through it. For the condo association to treat this woman like this is beyond despicable.
Off my soap box now.....
