You are whining about a flag that is just as old as the amurican flag if not older and was used by the marine corp and navy in the 18th century. Matter of fact I have one hanging on my bedroom wall.
LOL I have yet to see one. Banning a group from flying a flag is real American like I tell ya.NY can enjoy losing another battle.
If you read my posts dealing with gay marriage you would see I have no problem with it.
What you fail to understand is that the American flag and a state flag and a city/county flag can be, and are flown in the same area at the same time. Some flags may be flown on the same pole as the American flag, but the American flag will be flown above all others.
Banning flying a flag of a political party, another country, or by any certain group of people in a public or government, city, state, federal is improper.
Buy your mom and dad's house from them, erect your own flagpole, and fly whatever flag you wish.
Since you obviously have disrespect for America and OUR American flag, you should familiarize yourself with the United States Code Title 4 Chapter 1 — The Flag.

What possible legal grounds does this group have?
If I go down to my local public pool and ask to fly my underwear on the flag pole (or otherwise it) and they say no, if I sue in court to overturn their ban on flying my underwear on the flag pole, do I have an equally as valid case?
Why is a veterans group flying a political flag, don't they have more important things they can get involved in, seems like a misguided radical faction has taken over and put politics before veterans issues.
It seems like a lot of you need to do some reading on the Gadsdan Flag, where it came from and what it actually represents. Some members of the Tea Party may use it as a symbol but it's certainly not a "political flag". Many Americans fly this flag because of the meaning behind it, it doesn't belong to any political group in this country other than Americans as a whole.
