Complaints by Ignorant, Hateful Liberals Force Michigan Bed and Breakfast to Take Down Norway Flag Because They Think It’s the Confederate Flag

A couple in St. John’s, Michigan recently took down the red, white and blue flag of Norway displayed on the porch of their bed and breakfast after receiving continuous complaints by ignorant liberals who accused the couple of flying the Confederate battle flag.

The Nordic Pineapple, run out of a mansion built in 1861 by a Union general, was started two years ago by Greg and Kjersten Offenbecker. The couple flew the flag of Norway from a pillar opposite the American flag to honor Kjersten’s Norwegian heritage (her grandfather immigrated from Norway.) Both the U.S. and Norway flags were taken down by the frustrated couple.

They could always tell them to buzz off. But I suppose that would be mean. Yeah, much better that they change.

That is the lesson that has been pushed in our school system since I started in 1993.

Try using the word “niggardly.”

My somewhat liberal sister, who purpotes to be a wprdsmith, said it was rooted in the word “nigger.”

Of course a 5 second Google search of the etymology shows it preceded the word “nigger” by around 2 centuries.

Not that facts could penetrate the CHINKS in her armor.

They could just continue to fly the Norway flag, but they also could end up with their house being torched as a result.

What is with this almost universal cowardice? Have we become a nation of cowards?

Just goes to show you that they are such clueless people who are doing what they are told to do, not what they truly feel in their hearts.

I wear a hat with crossed Norwegian flags on it. So far I haven’t been hassled by ignorant liberals for them (yet). Of course, I live in the South, so people here aren’t so ignorant of such things here...

Perhaps it’s the Christian cross that really offends them.

They would rather take down the flag than risk being firebombed.
