I tell you what, if the American flag offends you then they can either A. get out of the USA, or B. just don't come to the USA. The USA is slowly moving towards what's already happening in Europe. For example, in the UK you can't fly the Bitrish flag because it might offend foreigners, in Germany you can't be patriotic and if you are then you will be frowned upon, and in sweden if you say the original swedish people had blonde hair and blue eyes then people will go nuts. In Greece you can't fly the Greek flag or people will look negatively at you. Flying the American Flag is freedom of expression and speech. With the way things are going in the USA, I really hope we don't end up where Europe is now.

It's San Diego. We have to remember that San Diego is no longer a part of the United States. It's been annexed by Mexico.

Years ago when lXXXXXXXXM and PC started to go too far my mother uttered the phrase "The Feminization of America". Pansy is such a nice word.

Wow!! Why doesn't it matter to anyone that I'm offended by this. Glad to see my 20 years served in the Marine Corps mean so much to the leaders of this country.

Solution: Get a bigger American flag.

Don't you get it? Political Correctness now demands we hate our country.

0patience hit the nail on the head. I've been saying this for a while now. There has to be a point where you draw a line and tell people who are not happy to go fk themselves.

Reading stuff like this really pisses me off. I'm so sick of this PC takeover. Unfortunately I only see it getting worse as those in charge have already hopped on the train and its full speed ahead.

I'm offended by people who are so easily offended. They should all be subject to my personal approval, or lack thereof, in all aspects of their lives. No more as s-draggin pants, 47 facial piercings, absentee parenting, refusals to find employment, the list goes on. Since I am offended, and obviously it's my world, I just let ya'll live in it, thse things are now banned. Further banishments pending future notice.

Sorry, folks, but this is not about PC--it's about the greedy apartment managers who are afraid of losing the foreign tenants who probably pay way more for their apartments then the students. Blame greedy real estate owners for valuing profits more than patriotism.

I will blame it all but pint overall to a abysmal lowering of standards for what it means to stand up for what is right. There was a line in the opening credits of Boondocks Saints. True evil is not doing bad things but rather the indifference of good people.

On the bright side, here in MI, we passed a law last year requiring an American flag in every classroom and the Pledge of Allegiance to be said everyday. We can't make the students stand up and recite, but we have to give them the opportunity to be able to do it daily. When students bring it up/say it is stupid/make an exaggerated point of not participating, I take it as an opportunity to explain the importance of patriotism and all the good that comes from it.

I remember putting a flag on my balcony, as did others, on 9/11. I found out weeks later that there were complaints. I bought a 4X3 fully lit up flag and stuck it on the inside of a window and it stayed there until I moved to TN.

Love hearing this Teach thanks for taking the time to help educate and instill that patriotism early on

Even here in liberal MA this same law applies in the school systems, and is carried out quite fervently, to the common good of all.

While I won't call your spin on this subject pathetic, sorry or absurd, I will ridicule. LOL Almost EVERYTHING can (Truly or Falsely) be blamed on greed. Besides, The supposed act of greed you allude to would obviously be directly influenced by PC. How else do foreigners/immigrants/outsiders feel like they can get what they want from a silly complaint like this if it weren't for the steady and relentless progression of the PC virus? Speaking of PC. Neither Joe Biden nor myself got the memo when it was decided that you could NEVER call Asians Oriental. Nobody told me. Nope, I didn't know it was a slur. Nobody told Joe. But at least y'all can forgive Joe. He's in the right party. If he were a repub, the press would be chasing him down every alley to inflict their righteous anger upon him.

I still have the first AMERICAN FLAG I could find after 9/11 and I absolutely feel sorry for the person who even attempts to remove it.
