So a Trump pin is OK?

That was my first thought.

I am listening to a book now “Panzer Commander” by Hans von Luck, and in it he discusses how during the desert fighting in North Africa, the Bedouins and Muslims overall gave friendship and support to the Nazis because of their antipathy towards the Jews.

So, I see the Palestinian flag as an extension of that.

That’s not pride. It’s hate.

I call BS. I bet lots of legit pins would be cause for removal. And likely a pin with the Jewish star would be in this category too.

I'm sure both Palestinian and Israeli flags would draw complaints -- but both would be protected.

I recently saw a barista at Peet’s with a Palestinian flag pin. Also tranny and Pride pins.

Yep, just not the STAR OF DAVID, unless you want to get kicked off at 30,000 feet.

I sure as heck would not patronize that Peet's. No telling what the barista might add to your coffee. Besides, I home-brew my own cold brew coffee. No need for overpriced Peet's or Starbucks.

You won’t find a Peet’s or Starbucks that doesn’t celebrate Pride. Especially during Pride Month, their stores are full of rainbow mugs, cookies, lapel pins, signs etc.

Sounds like Petsmart during Pride Month. Hard to figure out how wearing rainbow collars, chewing rainbow toys, or having rainbow beds adds to your dog's or cat's life. I bet they feature calico cats in their adoption center, too. NOTHING to be proud of...

Well, at least they’re exposing who we know as someone to watch.
