The New York Times was ripped on Saturday for publishing a piece that suggested the American flag has become a symbol of divisiveness.]

I want to defend the NY Times on this one. It's an article about how to some people, flying the American flag is a clue to people's political beliefs. It's an interesting story. People make assumptions about other people based on whether someone is displaying an American flag.

"In a Long Island town, neighbors now make assumptions, true and sometimes false, about people who conspicuously display American flags."

If our nation's flag offends them, then they can pack up and leave because we'll never change that, no matter how much crying and bedwetting they do.. They're not wanted here anyway.
