Citrus Heights Homes Displaying American Flags Targeted By Arsonists
CITRUS HEIGHTS (CBS13) — Police are investigating a string of arsons, targeting Citrus Heights homes with American flags on display.
At least four homes were targeted in the Sungarden neighborhood early Saturday morning. So far, police say they don’t know the motive.
…
Michael Howard has lived here for a decade. He was busy cleaning up some of the ashes left from the fires.
“This is the first time anything’s happened,” Howard said. “Gut reaction? Is it somebody with an agenda?”
Citrus Heights police are investigating the arsons and so far don’t know the motive, or whether the fires were set intentionally as part of the George Floyd worldwide movement.
…
For now, the fires have scared Marie Nuzzi enough she won’t put another flag up at her home.
“It’s not worth it for me to put my family through it,” Nuzzi said.

Will this become a national "trend?" Let's hope not.
Chilling freedom of speech. No different than what the KKK did, but with burning crosses.
More training, more practice on what you've been trained.
Hmmm...does anyone know the whereabouts of Drew Brees and his wife at the time of the arsons? Lots of virtue signaling going on.
I have a friend who lives in Southern California’s South Bay (near Los Angeles).
She told me a neighbor who’s a retired cop came over on Saturday and told her to remove her American Flag from in front of her home b/c the rioters were attacking homes with American Flags.
I live in a conservative area in Southern California (yes, there are a few) and have an American flag flying, as does my next door neighbor and the home across the street.

Along with intimidation, violence, looting and general anarchy.
Has anyone heard from the DOJ lately? Here is their lofty yet ignored "mission statement":
To enforce the law and defend the interests of the United States according to the law; to ensure public safety against threats foreign and domestic; to provide federal leadership in preventing and controlling crime; to seek just punishment for those guilty of unlawful behavior; and to ensure fair and impartial administration of justice for all Americans.
THE DOJ IS NOT DOING ITS JOB!
“So far, police say they don’t know the motive.”
That is a stumper. How are they ever going to figure that one out?
It's a close call, Sid.
What serious political anarchist with a functioning terrorist arm would not want to see Independence Day converted to a day of shame and white guilt?
As it is, they are performing for a global audience and they are aiming for the day after the next presidential election.
Just like every one else they know who did it, and they know why.I guess that it wouldn't be politically correct for the police to state the obvious.
You can bet they'd be quick with a motive if it were a Mexican or rainbow flag. Only the American flag baffles them.
Mine flies every day but comes down at dusk. I don’t have a proper light for night time.
I’ve wondered if this would be a marker for Antifa to target.
The new way to attract Rats.
Spending an hour once a week at the local gun shop and range. Have Ruger SR40 on order. Fly American flag except for very windy days.
Aren’t these clearly “hate” crimes?

The article says all you need to know: Citrus Heights police are investigating the arsons and so far don’t know the motive
Don’t know the motive?????????? Idiot cops like that make it hard to support them. And this July 4th should be a real riot. Let’s see which American corporations sponsor July 4th events this year.
