Pride and Glory

Virginia Veteran Gets Extra Week Before He Must Remove Flag or Face Consequences Now, I'm not American, nor do I wish to be.  I am proudly Canadian.  But this story stuck out like a sore thumb.  I personally know American war veterans and am proud to call them friends and family. These men and women have worked and fought valliantly when other could not or would not.  Personally, I think they have earned the right to fly their flag whenever and where ever they please.  How ignorant and petty of the housing association to tell someone that they cannot wave Old Glory in their yard.  "This is not about the American flag. This is about a flagpole," Oh come on!  Just shut your pie hole and go home!  Let the man fly his flag - it'll save you from looking like a complete donkey on the world stage. Can't fly the national flag - BAH! - if only more Canadians would take as much pride in our standard!  Long live the maple leaf!
