You know trouble is right around the corner when your best friend tells you to hold his beer!!

Of all the things the left has done, this has to be the silliest

I don't want to offend anyone with this question, but what are those POW/MIA flags for anyway? What is the purpose of them?

I'd never fly the "trans" flag but if it was just for a day, I don't see the big deal.

Prisoner of war/Missing in Action

Prisoner of war/Missing in Action

I know that, but are there prisoners of war out there?  I'm not aware of any.  So what's so sacred about that flag, anyway, that people would get all riled up when someone temporarily moves it to an office because of a limitation of the number of flags they can fly?

A couple of evenings ago I spotted one of those loud, lifted trucks with big tires and sporting the Carolina squat. In the bed was a flagpole flying a U.S. flag which was lit by a light mounted in the bed. My eyes almost got stuck in the roll position. Just a bit much.

How many "pride" days are there? How is this any different from replacing it for one day with a rebel flag on "Confederacy Pride Day."

There are still missing soldiers from Vietnam, Korea and now the Middle East.

Prisoners? We don't know. Probably were executed.

What I don't like about this specifically...

I bet the politicians are laughing about it with eachother, "I don't give a crap about [expletive deleted] but holy crap will our moronic base eat it up!"

---

For the younguns that have no idea why that specific flag is so important, Its a military thing. If you've never been there, you can't understand. I'm not trying to be nasty or rude or insinuate anyone reading this is stupid, but if you have never served in the military you can never know how deep the bond between former military people goes even for people ypu have never heard of. The Vietnam veterans are probably the most tight knit group of people you will ever find.

How many "pride" days are there? How is this any different from replacing it for one day with a rebel flag on "Confederacy Pride Day."

The fact that you just equated this with the Confederacy proves just how ignorant you are on the topic.

I don't fully understand the trans movement at all, and I don't really agree with it.  But people are attacked all the time for it, so a day of visibility and peace seems fine.

Since you clearly don't understand an argument ad absurdum, I'll forgive you for the "ignorant" insult.

There are a lot of legitimate concerns about the trans movement, but that's not my point. My point was that if you allow replacing a MIA/POW flag just because it's a reason you support, how is that any different than replacing it for a reason you oppose? Once you've opened the door here, wouldn't there be hundreds of activist for various issues demanding their own flag day?

Out of curiosity, who "allows" members of Congress to hang some flags but not others outside of their offices? Let them fly whatever flag they want to. If it kills their chances of national office or angers their constituents and gets them voted out in disgrace, that's on them.

Could that statement also cover the sons of the confederacy?

At some point you just have to let go of what you thought should happen and live in what is happening.

This. As a veteran a can attest to this. You explained it perfectly.

Exactly. How about no flags at all? Just the representative's name on the door.

Representatives are not required to display flags. If they do, they must abide by posted Senate rules/policy which states only three flag options (US, State and POW), how to display, and when to remove them (end of duty day).

And why should they be restricted to those three? If a member of Congress wants to hang their own noose by throwing a Nazi flag out there, why stop them?

This isn't Nam, Bender. There are rules man.
