Living here in JP, the Boston area land of liberals and lesbians, I have put up with much abuse over the years from these nut-balls. I happened to be one of those "some people" and the word "uncomfortable" did not come out of my mouth in my message. Most of what I said could not be printed. This was the first time that I tried something as an individual and actually got my reward.

You GO! I would haved loved to have heard a direct quote from you. We do not live under the tutelage of the UN....we are the United States.

[dansangel]

PS...I used to live in Crapachusetts. You have my sincerest sympathies!

[flanew]

Great going!

[JD86]

Excellent! It is a victory everytime that flag comes down. Well Done!

[Little Bill]

You devil, I never would have thought you would be involved, LOL.

[Eaker]

It is a damn shame that they would not let you publicly burn it to "assuage your discomfort"!!!

The First Church Unitarian Universalist is the type of place one would expect to see the UN flag! They've watered down the gospel with leftist ideaology, why not just jump right in with the global socialists with both feet. Pathetic!

Now if we could just get that big building on the Hudson River to go away and take all the UN flags with them.

>>>>"I thought [flying the UN flag] was a great idea, but it made some people uncomfortable, so we had to respect their wishes," said Mary Hines, spokesperson for the Parks department.<<<<

Mary Hines = moron

>>>The First Church Unitarian Universalist <<<

Stand for nothing - fall for everything!

[RedBloodedAmerican]

How rude of you. You just insulted all the morons of the world.

[Prince Caspian]

...the flag has been taken down because it made "some people" uncomfortable...

The idea is catching on.

At present, the United Nations is playing a key role around the world and in Afghanistan

Yeah. Right.

"Now, just a few weeks later, the flag has been taken down because it made "some people" uncomfortable according to Gerry Wright, the president of the Jamaica Pond Project."

Is being "uncomfortable" anything like having a deep philosophical objection, or being just plain angry [or both]?

[rdavis84]

">>>The First Church Unitarian Universalist <<<"

Catchall religion for a One World government.

All I really did was make an anonymous phone call from a pay phone with a voice digitizer. You don't know which agency they'll sic on you if they know who the cussing, swearing, "uncomfortable" people are.

A dozen phone calls and we get action.

I wonder how many phone calls it takes for the libs to get action--maybe they should swear more.

The key here is to take down the UN flag(s) and keep the building. Lord knows NYC needs some PRODUCTIVE office space.
