Unbelievable.

Where did he get the flags? I bought the last flag out of Amazon a year or two ago.

You can’t yell “Fire!” in a crowded theater.

“Freaking out” because someone is displaying a historical flag should also be a step too far in the Free Speech battle. Displaying that flag? Absolutely protected by the First Amendment. Freaking out and demanding that the flag be removed? That’s suppression of someone’s constitutional right and the freaker should be fined, IMO. It’s not OK and we need to stop tolerating that kind of crap.

You want to debate the issue of the Civil War? Fine.
You want to freak out because you hold an opposing view? Not Ok.

Confederate flags are not uncommon in the hinterlands of PA. I have seen them flying 24/7 outside homes and on trucks.

Typical illiberal liberal freak. No doubt a Democrat activist looking for attention. They’re all alike.

Some more details:

Source: LehighValleyLive:

...

Police Chief Mark DiLuzio said the Confederate flag was placed inside the window of the hotel, 437 Main St., in the early afternoon hours for a private wedding.

...

Fountain Hill resident Leo Atkinson was walking along Main Street Saturday when he also heard the man shouting expletives. He said traffic was blocked in both directions as police intervened.

"I didn't know why he was yelling, then I saw the flag," Atkinson said, noting he later learned there was a wedding being held at the hotel.

When officers arrived, the man continued shouting obscenities, ignored commands to stop and had to be carried away, DiLuzio said. He did not immediately have the identity of the man being charged.

In a situation like this I always wonder if drugs and/or alcohol was a factor.

Police: ‘Moronic idiotic snowflake freaked out by seeing a historic flag that doesn’t have ANYTHING to do with race.’

I have always liked the Confederate flag. I never thought of it as a racist symbol. Still don’t.

There’s something about a “couple”, which appears to be the only sentence left out of a harshly edited paragraph. Any locals got some context?

Surely he would “freak out” seeing a rainbow flag too.

“freak out” is like “snapped”. Something a defense lawyer says in court to get his guilty client set free, but without any legal definition or basis in reality.

Pavlov's dogs syndrome comes to mind. Conditioned by "education" to react to colors on cloth. I bet this would really upset them! The flag of Eastern Ukraine.
