Sarcasm meter is at 11.

$500? How much did it cost the victims to replace all the flags and the lines that he cut? I presume they don’t see any of the “fine” money, such as it is?

We probably saved his @$$ from Communist Vietnam and this is how he repays us.

Time to revoke his visa and send him home to Vietnam.

Enjoy your new life, pal.

From his photo it looks like he is of mixed race. He’s just old enough to have been fathered by a GI in the closing days of the Vietnam War—he is 44, last Gis left in 73. He needed an interpreter, which probably means he is a fairly recent immigrant. And , from the story, he is not all there—sounds a little wacky. Probably had a rough time growing up in Vietnam: I have read that mixed-race kids are not treated well there. Sad.

Probation????? He cut down the flags of our country and he only got probation??

And how much will $500 fine help replace all the flags he cut down?

This is justice?

[Berlin_Freeper]

$500 must be the pre-fine?

[MAexile]

A judge sentenced a man to 18 months probation this morning, and ordered him to pay $500 in fines...

How about good flogging instead?
