Community members in California are upset after their local city council called the “thin blue line” flag a racist symbol.

TOPICS: Culture/Society
KEYWORDS:
Last week, a Livermore city council committee deemed the “thin blue line” flag, along with the Confederate flag, racist symbols. The committee — comprised of community members and council members — was conducting an “inventory of racist symbols.”

The city council committee’s reasoning for taking inventory of these symbols had to do with making sure only inclusive symbols were displayed at city-owned properties.


With all that is going on in the world it is good that the Livermore city council is focusing on the important things such as conducting an “inventory of racist symbols.”

The idiots are following the Nazi plan. Get rid of police because they are bad, cause increase in crime and form new Law Authority which are even more abusive than the original police. That’s the plan.

I really wish they would come up with something else to symbolize support for the police, rather than that ugly desecration of the Flag of the United States of America.

I agree!

I fully support Law Enforcement Officers and recognize the very special nature of the work they perform - but the U.S. flag should not be modified for ANY purpose.

Our side is just as bad with flags for everything when America has one flag. The left is a bunch of psychotic children though.

Only a matter of time until these leftist mentally ill stooges declare the American flag racist and ban it’s use. Bet the rent.

I don't have stats; but I'd venture to say that "our side" does not burn their flags anywhere near the number of times they burn the U.S. flag.

A small price to pay to celebrate the service the police provide.
