VIDEO: Maine College Republicans have posted a video showing the desecration of our American flag at the University of Maine, Farmington, by an 'art' student. Vet restrained from picking flags up off the ground.
My cousin lives in Portland and he’s so sick of the liberalism up there, he’s ready to move.
Not surprising from the hate-America communists up there.
Most people were walking around them and not stepping on them. The short-haired woman teacher was such a simpering sweetie.

.
A Democrat supporter, Clinton or Obama?
I wonder what would be said/happen if it was pages of the Quran being desecrated like this.
I’m guessing the “artist” would be arrested for violating speech codes against “hate”....
“Most people were walking around them and not stepping on them.”
But everyone was allowing this to happen!!!!!
Interesting and somewhat encouraging that a majority of the students shown on the video tried to walk around the flags. Shows that they have more integrity than the university administration itself.
In slight defense of the UMF students though, I did notice that most of them at least refused to step on our flag.
Can someone punch the artist in the nose and call it art?
I did notice that almost everyone walking through the building went AROUND the flags.
There was the one young man in what appeared to be a denim dress who was standing on one of them, but I only noticed one other person who intentionally walked across a flag inseatd of around it.
yes, but the good people that try to prevent it would be arrested for infringing on his rights.

FARMINGTON: Art and beliefs clash at UMF

[note: My mom and 2 of my sisters live just outside of farmington; my Dad taught Ski Biz at UMF after he retired]
At least the blood splatter could be called “modern” art. I think we have a case there. This crap wouldn’t happen at UAF. (University of Alaska Fairbanks)

We spend about 5-6 months per year traveling in our RV. (7.3MPG but who’s counting). We will never go back to CA, OR, and WA.
I’m afraid the “art” student will have grounds to sue the University in a few years. He is studying to become an artist, I think when he realizes the only job for which he is qualified is dishwasher, he will realize he’s been cheated.

I was speaking of Portland, ME but those areas are to be equally avoided, you are correct.
