Dent County is a place in southeast Missouri where about 15,000 people live. Today, the County Commission there voted unanimously — unanimously! — to fly the flags at the courthouse and judicial building below half-mast on the 26th day of every single month between now and June 2016.

Too bad! Why does it say they decided to rescind the decision out of respect for veterans?

I think we could really burn out the left if we just did everything we wanted to do without fear of what the leftist idiots responses will be. Seriously. We know how they screech and overreact to anything not liberal. So what.

Let them explode. Let them write idiocy. They are going to do it anyway. When we do nothing, they fake stuff so they can write and screech about us. tawana Brawley. Fake gay and lesbian attacks they do to themselves and blame on conservatives who are doing nothing to them. Fake racial attacks they do to themselves to blame on conservatives who are not doing anything to them.

They are going to hate whether we do something or nothing. They are going to create fake stuff to hate us with if we do nothing. They want to hate. They will always find something. They don’t want to give it up because they cannot tolerate the existence of others that totally disagree with them, fundamentally. they cannot handle it.

So why not go for broke.

Why not.

Our “leaders” don’t do jack sh1t for us. They are spineless and either have no problem with what is going on, or are so stupid they have no idea how to handle this kind of thing. Too scared they won’t get re-elected. They may lose their power. So they shut up and just sit there along for the ride down the sewer.

Good for them.

In San Diego this weekend the sodomites are throwing their annual Homo fest, also known as the Lack of Pride Parade.

Perversion on parade. Ain't that grand.

Yes. Veteran's groups said that half-staff should be used to honor local soldiers or dignitaries, not for Supreme Court decisions.

Glad to see that a place where some of my ancestors lived for a time, still have a sense of shame over debauchery as ordered by the U.S. men and women in black.

Perversion on parade.

An appropriate characterization of these parades.

Sadly a lot of people have been brainwashed that "if two people are in love, nothing else matters". Sodomy is a perversion of something that is supposed to be clean and good.

Skiles says members of the military told him lowering the flag should be reserved to pay respects to fallen soldiers and dignitaries who die.

The flag should be flown at half-staff to morn the death of the Constitution.

we should practice our freedom of speech and burn a flag on the 26th of every month

after all, burning a flag is protected speech... right?
