I suppose his actions qualify him as posing a severe domestic terrorist threat.
Is an Islamist flag A-OK?
Let him be!
*sigh*... Let the man fly his flag.
The only flag allowed inside is the United States flag.
” goes to church and reads a bible “?
All the more reason they persecute him?
That Flag was about states rights and the VA should mind their own damn business!
You can burn an American flag as an expression of free speech but you can’t display a Confederate flag as an expression of same. Goodbye America..........
Yes... in this Administration’s eyes.
Not true...it’s up the the director:
“the display of any placards, banners, or foreign flags on VA property unless approved by the head of the facility”

Besides...one cannot make a serious argument that the stars and bars is a FOREIGN flag...
Wanna bet if the guy was gay and wanted a rainbow flag there wouldnt be a word said about it?
This prohibition is especially ironic given that the South contributes a disproportionate amount of our men to the military. Many of our finest generals are of Southern heritage and a large number of military bases are locate in here in Dixie.
Well the article says only US flags are allowed inside, so I guess at this facility, that’s all they allow.
Going to the VA is still taking the government dime. And when you do that, you have to play by government rules. And *that* is a very, very important lesson to remember.
What if the government rules were that it was his time to die? This is no longer as hypothetical as it used to be.
Now THAT is a good test. Fly a “muzzie” flag, and see if the libtards want that taken down. (You have to get passed the feelings of doing such an abhorrent thing, but it would be interesting.)
Directors discretion
"I just went to the ward over there and they said it was offensive and they did not like what it portrayed and they asked we remove it. We had to do what the guidelines say. We are a federal facility," says Willie Logan, Public Information Officer for the VA Hospital. The only flag allowed inside is the United States flag.
I’d be willing to stake him to the price of a tattoo. Then he could tell them to piss off...
If 0bama’s gestapo refuse to allow this Vet to exercise the Freedom he fought for, he should then put up the flag of the Great State of Mississippi and dare them to remove it.
A worker came in and was offended.
Don’t know about you but I think mighty hard about causing a ruckus someplace where I have to rely on others.
POing the nursing staff might not be all that great an idea.
Somebody just might............
Not saying but.......
