US Forest Ranger told Camp Host to take down US Flag

[GrandmaC]

Thank you, figured out the picture thing, Put a picture up of the Camp host. I have camped all my life. This is the first time I have ever run into this. This is a picture of the campground sign:

They even have a spot light on it. I can understand that. This is the 2nd year in a row for that flag up on the tree. But that should not negate Camp Host or campers from having their flags.

Someone needs to publish the rangers name so he can be shunned.

Well, I MIGHT be seeing what the problem is - the flag is mounted on an official sign post-thing - might there be some regulation against that (??). That's the only problem I could stretch at coming up with.

I got it thank you. Here is my friend and me in our protest mode over it:

[GrandmaC]

You are absolutely right, our leader doesn’t believe in anything American or Christian.

[Jim Robinson]

That would be great! Thanks!

[GrandmaC]

According to him, there is no such thing in their contract that American Leisure and Land has with the US Forest Service. So I don’t know.

[trisham]

I’m stunned. Absolutely stunned.

[GrandmaC]

I do not have that information.

[GrandmaC]

We were too! We started putting up little flags we had with us all over.

[trisham]

I love our flag. There is never a time when the “Star Spangled Banner” does not move me to tears.

Always happy to help

Absolutely not. Who cares if they hang an American flag or a pirate flag or a flag of any type?

He told our camp host, Butch & Sharon, they had to take down their US Flag. He refused. I don't know the outcome of his refusal,

Why? You were there to make the observation.....

their is a chance he will loose his job.

Again, why? Why would someone on a camping trip be in jeopardy of losing their job simply because of refusing an alleged demand to take down their camp flag?

Why don't you get back to us when you have ALL THE FACTS of what actually happened..........

I don't mind jumping off swimming pool diving boards but I refuse to jump to conclusions based on internet comments which are vague at best...........

As the years go by and there are more and more incidents with the flag (abused at the hands of protesters, ordered down by HOAs, turned out of public schools, etc.), I get the sinking suspicion that the Left and Dems will make a big push to have it changed or replaced with some sort of PC "Franken-flag" that breaks all associations with the Old Glory we know, love, and revere.

[Salvation]

Post the source and we can get to the pictures.

I didn’t mean that you used it, I meant knowledge of the blink tag is something that should never be shared. /grin

He must have received a complaint. This Ranger should be put on probation as a minimum. So, its unacceptable to fly a flag in a US government owned campground? What would he prefer, a rainbow flag?
