A thief in Alabama expressed remorse after desecrating an Independence Day tribute to military heroes on church property.
The culprit left a note after returning several of the 100 American flags that had names of veterans on them on the grounds of the First Baptist Church in Grand Bay.
"I'm sorry for taking the flags," the person wrote on a note with the returned flags. "I did not mean any disrespect ... I was drinking and had a dumb idea ... I had no idea that there were names of fallen heroes."

If Joementia Biden did this, he would wake up the next day and ask his Caretaker DOCTOR Jill Biden where the Flags came from.
