In a stunning security breach, the giant American flags at the top of both sides of the Brooklyn Bridge were replaced by white flags overnight, cops said.

The two new flags appear to be American flags that were painted over white — the traditional symbol for “surrender” — and were flying Tuesday morning from both towers.

The NYPD’s Emergency Service Unit will is replacing the white flags with American flags as they set up a crime scene

Not an entirely bad idea for a visual explanation of our country under this Marxist regime.

There is a reason Japan does not allow Muslims to settle in Japan. Same for Latrinos, with or without tattoes.

This is alarming... saw it on FNC.. is this an interpretation of what America has done (surrender) or is it a warning to surrender? Certainly some camera somewhere caught something.

Could you use paintballs with paint thinner or bleach to turn flags white?

No matter.

NY is one of the cities that will become a walled off prison following CW-II.

And if we are successful in preventing the Obamas, Clintons, Pelosis, Reids, Boxers, etc from leaving the country, we can have the pleasure of watching these vermin being consumed by their created co-vernin behind that wall.

Why go to the trouble of painting them white?

Just turn them upside down.

Sends the same message.

I've seen plenty of Middle Easterners and some Latinos in Tokyo. Never heard that certain ethnic minorities were disqualified from receiving a work/spouse visa.

Nobody saw it happening. Authorities were too busy inspecting gun magazine and soda cup capacities.

NYC Cops apparently were busy responding to reports of suspicious looking Dogs.

And strangling black-market cigarette merchants.

Oooops.. Somebody washed American flags with too much bleach in the water? I can see the faint imprint of our flag in those flags.
