Ping--Clarification re: San Bernardino Flag Display
At issue is not the small U.S. flag normally flown but the big one that has previously been at City Hall.
Four City Council Members have refused to permit the large flag to be flown on patriotic National Holidays, for fear of 'offending' someone.
We want that large American Flag again flown PROUDLY, on America's National Holidays!
In the Right Column for May 15 is a link to a PDF file. Item 43 records the motion as having failed.
Here is the exact text from that PDF:
43.
Display of U.S. Flag on Memorial Day, Flag Day and Fourth of July. (See Attached)
Failed
MOTION: That the Facilities Department be directed to display the 22x30 U.S. Flag on Memorial Day, Flag Day and on Fourth of July.

Thanks for the ping & update.
I guess no one's supposed to be TOO proud of their country. Is that it?

Seems city coucilman Chas. Kelley is the one proposing flying the "big" flag on certain holidays. Based on
THIS item, it looks like his original proposal was at the May 1 meeting. At least we know who one of the good guys are.
His more recent RE-proposal is ITEM #43, where it is stated the May 1 proposal was "not approved", whatever that means. A non vote???
