Shining Example: At a time when Left-wing extremists within the Democrat Party are working daily to destroy our American heritage, traditions, and culture, there are still a number of instances where good people step up and show to prove that pride in country and civic duty are far from being extinguished.
This was demonstrated again this week when a FedEx driver and former Marine, Mike King, was driving by a residence on his way to his next delivery when he saw an American flag lying on the ground and decided to do something about it.
“He stopped and took time out of what is surely one of his busiest delivery weeks to pick up our flags and fold them and place them safely on a box that was on our porch,” said resident Gail Cook.

Good man
All Democrats will hate this.
My neighborhood is mostly Americans of Italian descent.
Flags are everywhere, EXCEPT where albanians and russians have moved in.
If you desecrate a flag on my block, you should call mom and tell her you won’t be home for dinner...for the next 3 months.
Are our political leaders as patriotic and devoted to America as this man?
NO. Hardly any, I imagine.
I don’t think Kennedy or even Tip would have hated this.
I HATED their beliefs, but I do think they loved the country.
Things have gone downhill very badly among certain folks...mostly those who got a college degree in the last 20 years.
FED X will discipline him for leaving the truck door open, betcha ?
And a week from now we’ll hear that he’s been fired for straying off his route and wasting time.
Back in those days we argued policy. Now we argue culture. Some of the most patriotic guys I ever met were union guys from South Boston.
I KNOW, having come of age near Paris Island, that there is no such thing as an ex-Marine but to say ‘former Marine’ still seems a bit wrong. Is there a better term like ‘inactive Marine’?
Regardless, for this __?__ Marine; Well Done!
Having worked for them for 14 years, I can say that Fedex is (or at least it was in my day) very supportive of the military. Their
‘Good job’ slogan is Bravo Zulu. Fred Smith was a Navy Man.

Love is shown through sacrifice.
Progressive communists elites never sacrifice they use “education” to convince useful idiots to “sacrifice” in their place while they (elites) live off the spoils.
“...mostly hhose who got a college degree in the last 20 years...”
It’s not really a college degree.
It’s mostly a piece of paper that says you’ve been indoctrinated into the brilliant, intellectual, superior world of leftist thought that looks upon others as morons and inferiors. (Getting them ready to be guards in the re-education camps.)
IMHO
Agree.
And Agree.
:)
I doubt it. Fred Smith is a fellow marine.
Not going to lie, choked me up.
This use to be just considered common decency.
Now, it’s news.
That’s how far we have fallen.
Semper fi, good man.
I thunk Trump would stop the cars and do something.
no such thing as “former” Marine. . .a Marine is a Marine forever! I’m not one. . .heard this many times from a Marine buddy of mine.
Tears, indeed.
Thank you Mr. King, for your service, past, and present.
