WETHERSFIELD, Conn. (WTNH) — Wethersfield town officials have been receiving “vulgar” messages over a controversial decision made last Monday at a council meeting.

And rightly so. These “officials” disgust me.

[old school]

It’s demonic, ‘cause nobody could be that stupid!

[spincaster]

These people are sick!

[Ge0ffrey]

Soros-paid callers, I’m sure. It fits the narrative.

I don’t see the think blue line flag representing white supremacy but I dislike it because I see it as disrespectful to the US flag.

“They said that the decision was made due to the flag being associated with white supremacy,”

First, who made up that nonsense? Second, if the city banned it, every citizen who turned out should have been carrying one. Like when they refuse o sing the anthem at a sporting event and the crowd spontaneously sings it. Time to show the “government” who’s boss.

That’s it. We now have a thin blue line flag, a thin green line flag, a thin red line flag, etc. While all of these flags have good intentions, they are bad for the country.

Democrats are trying to divide the country. Such flags also divide us. Just one flag for all of us - that’s the way to go.

..disrespectful to the US flag.

I disagree. The Blue Line flag has great symbolism and that line smells of FBI COINTELPRO, but I understand why you'd believe that: I did at one time, too.

I fully believe that the plandemic was intended - in part - to vet police and the armed forces of noncompliant members (especially leadership) to facilitate their next phases, including coopting SCOTUS.

Think carefully about emotional arguments inserted within their opposition (US), because IMHO that is one of them.

Before we jump to conclusions..

This is Connecticut. The police have remained “lock step” in line with orders to arrest those who will not register their guns or magazines.

The police there in my home state of Connecticut can pound sand.

I have zero emotional interest. I guess the rainbow stars and bars is fine with you also. My point was that it conflicts with the flag code and how the flag is treated.

Once they pervert the flag, everything is game.

That is patently false, a fabrication of social media, or at a minimum promoted by interested elements therein.

“That is patently false, a fabrication of social media, or at a minimum promoted by interested elements therein.”

The US Military code on flag etiquette is not a social media creation. Why defend the perversion of our national symbol?

[logi_cal869]

Moving target now, eh? Source???

[Zack Attack]

“Moving target now, eh? Source???”

The only moving target here are those who think they can freely change the look and style of the flag, like replacing colors or adding text. The American flag is red, white and blue in a specific pattern, not not black and white, and certainly not rainbow colored.

§1. Flag; stripes and stars on
The flag of the United States shall be thirteen horizontal stripes, alternate red and white; and the union of the flag shall be fifty stars representing the fifty states, white in a blue field

Ironically, you just demonstrated that the 'Thin Blue Line' flag - black on white - is not a flag desecration.

Thank you. I'm here all week. /s

[Zack Attack]

I give up on you. Black is not a color in the US flag. Celebrate whatever you wish, even the rainbow stars and bars is not a desecration by your standards. Maybe you are just a troll...

The blue line flag, while not illegal, has been been banned from being flow at many military bases because it doesn’t meet guidelines.

[logi_cal869]

Black is not a color in the US flag.

Once again, you make my point.

Maybe you are just a troll...

Uh-huh. You're not a zeeper, but you appear ignorant that the opposition to the Thin Blue Line flag manifested during the blm riots, as did - ironically - the new DOD policy on flags. This controversy is a leftist trope.

Furthermore, if you look at how the controversy over the Thin Blue Line flag manifested - including allegations of 'white supremacy' and having been flown at Charlottesville - the controversy has MUCH more in common with COINTELPRO than any attempt at claims of desecration.

You would be wise to open your eyes than to be calling out insults without basis. You appear to be much smarter than that.
