It is not “illegal” to violate the code (4 U.S.C. 1) that specifies how to fly the flag.
It is a set of rules that applies to government agencies, although it it considered the standard for all flag etiquette.
Yes, if this were a federal government office flying the flag this way, there might be a small fine for the miscreant.

Patriotism in action.
I would love to be on the jury if they were to try the guy for "stealing" the US flag.

“My name is Jim Bronson, and I took this flag down in honor of my country, with a knife of the United States Army! I am a veteran and I will not see this done to my country. If they want to fight us, then they need to be men. But I want someone to FIGHT me for this flag, because they’re not going to get it back!””
Well Done, Brother!

Is this really illegal in NV? I somehow doubt it.
If this is a private business they should be able to fly flags anyway they want. If people don’t like it they can organize a boycott of the business.
Taking down the flags is vandalism.
Long live free speech!!!

I’d like to buy that Vet a beer. We need more men like him in the Congress and in the White House for that matter.

Governor Waihee, the first ethnic Hawaiian governor, flew the Hawaiian flag over ther US flag at the Hawaii State Capitol. It was an “in your face” unpatriotic act as he intended it to be. He is a Dimocrap.

Bravo!

*LOL*....the owner of the flag stood there silent,like a moop. After the great American stated his case after cutting them loose, he stormed off. The moop, walked over pick up his flag and without saying a thing to the news reporter, walked inside his establishment,a bar I think.
Probably walking in wet shorts, thinking just how smart he was to keep quiet while this vet took action
Double thumbs up brother...Thank You

And by the way, yesterday afternoon, I called the owner of Cantina El Jaripeo, and asked him to fix the flag situation. He pleaded ignorance and then asked what law he was breaking. I told him (US Code IV, Chapter 1, Section 7(c).
Later in the evening when he was interviewed in a phone call from KRNV, he said he was not aware it was against the law.

A dumb thing to do, but prosecution under this law would not stand up in court, as the first amendment supersedes all laws related to flag displays.

Its about time people begin to say and act on ..we arent standing for this anymore.
For too long now we have allowed people to trod all over us.
God bless that guy ...I for one am proud!
Flying another nations flag over our own ...in place of our own etc...is not free speech. Its a message of conquer.
