“I was told it wouldn’t matter if it was only one person,” she said. “It would have to come down.”

I think I would find something about the "14 year" American and complain that it offended me.

Any flag that hits the ground is supposed to be burned. I wonder what would have been burned in that African woman’s country.

Should have taken a stand and refused to take it down.
Ya want me to remove it? NO and if you touch it I’ll kick your ass.
Fire me and I’ll find a REAL a hole lawyer to sue this company.
No get the f back to work.

I have been telling folks on the site that there areo9ne heck of a lot of democRATs in Texas. While we have a statewide majority right now it was a RAT state for 100+ years and seems to be trending back. I blame the message machine. Few Republicans seem to be able to tell people what is the benefit of lwoer taxes and less government. Two days of comparing our government to Kalifornia would do it, but see if you ever hear anything like that on radio or TV. If you don’t tell the people what good you do they will think the worst.

Just wondering if she hung the flag in honor of Memorial Day Weekend and Memorial Day on Monday...what a sick bunch of anti-American thugs.

People were outside of the hospital protesting this afternoon. It’s all over our local news and radio. Kindred is going to lose business over this, at least locally. We leave in South Arlington, and we will make sure our friends and family don’t darken their doors.

Doesn’t make sense to me - once you’re from Africa (or anywhere else, for that matter), you’re always from there...unless you happen to be a Marxist mulatto bastard from Kenya, I guess ;)

Her daughter is an Army medic on a second tour in Iraq. I suspect she uses the flag to help get though the day.

I ran my own company for 20 years.
And I don’t take a lot of guff.

McLucas said the supervisor who complained has been in the United States for 14 years and is formerly from Africa.

I don't usually take this tact, but....if you don't like it, then get the f*ck out. I'm sick of this crap.

Legally my position would probably be wrong but I do not give a damn. Tell me to remove my flag and we WILL have a problem.

Funny thing, I hae always had an American Flag on my truck.
Use to take a little ribbing from liberal friends because of it.
After 9-11 I noticed many of those who teased me suddenly had one appear one their vehicles.
