If the Bainbridge Island City Council were a patriotic, pro-America entity, this idiocy would never have erupted to begin with.

Thank God for Vietnam veteran Bill Knobloch.....our Vets saved us from the Nazis and many other threats beyond our shores as well as from Kerry and other threats right here at home. In this case, one of our Vets is providing some very necessary instruction to this City Council so that they might not forget what country they serve. Bravo!
