FDNY firefighters are forced to remove Stars and Stripes honoring 9/11 heroes

[Natural Citizen]

It is actually kind of fascst.

There should only be one American flag. And it shouldn't just be arbitrarily tailored to accommodate anyone's feelings or to placate anyone's sense of self-importance.

If you wanna hero worship, use some ribbons or something...

 

[Natural Citizen]

And screw New York anyway. Pft. Avoid it like the plague...

Perhaps behind the scenes a period of time, say a year or two that the flag should be put into the fire house as a memorial remembrance. Prog women are slowly destroying us. At some point men will not die for them.

Some guy on a bicycle rides up and says they have to take it down and they do? LOL

He was Nitezsche Uber man

They deserve to be shot and it amuses me that they were shot.

Leftists -- lie and then expect you to do the work of proving their points.

Fire Department brass ordered an East Village ladder company to remove its “red line” American flag honoring the squad’s six brothers killed on 9/11 – after a neighborhood resident complained it was “fascist” and a local lefty pol questioned whether it was a “politically charged symbol.”

The shocking order came March 22 after a man claiming he was a staffer for Democratic Manhattan Councilwoman Carlina Rivera confronted firefighters at Ladder Co. 11, sources said.

The man pedaled up to the East 2nd Street firehouse on a bicycle and told firefighters he worked for Rivera and that the councilwoman’s office “complained” to the FDNY three days earlier about the flag – which features a red stripe in tribute of firefighters injured or killed in the line of duty.
Hours later, now-Commissioner Kavanagh and Chief of Department John Hodgens reversed the decision and allowed the flag back on the truck.

The order should have been ignored and the flag should still be represented.

 

[Mac1958]

Another example of how ideology makes people say and do stupid fucking things.

/---/ The guy lied about belonging to the Cousilwoman's staff, or he was telling the truth, and the Cousilwoman is lying.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Ah, not only do you democrats force them to take down their flag, then you claim the firefighters are lying about it. Great political strategy. Shitting on firefighters is an odd choice that only a democrat would make.

Not if the district is heavily immigrant.

FDNY firefighters made to remove Stars & Stripes honoring 9/11 heroes

A downtown NYC fire-fighting company was told by a local councilwoman that they must remove from their truck a flag commemorating men they lost in 9/11.

Authorities at the New York City Fire Department commanded a ladder company in the East Village to remove a flag honoring six of the company's men who perished on 9/11 after a resident complained it was a 'fascist' symbol.

The order arrived on March 22 after a man who the New York Post reports claimed to be a staffer for progressive Manhattan Councilwoman Carlina Rivera, confronted firefighters at Ladder Company 11.

The man pulled up to the firehouse on a bike and told firefighters he works for Rivera and that the politician's office had complained several days earlier about the flag.

The 'thin red line' flag, which is a black-and-white American flag with a red line across the middle, is meant to show solidarity with firefighters who have fallen or been injured on the job.

The man reportedly called the flag a 'fascist symbol' and asked to know why it remained up.

Comment:
The Radical Left Democrats have a major problem with hate.
They hate America so much that they are branding the American flag as a symbol of fascism.
It is a cultural hatred for mainstream Americans.

Where’s the tar and feathers when needed?

Overt racism deflection noted. Google. You'll literally trip over them. The thin blue line flag can be considered fascist.
The thin red line flag...is not.

Just the funeral of another fascist, right?

this could be a looOOOooong thread if going down that road.......~S~

The blue line and red line flags are sufficiently different from the American flag that they cannot be mistaken for one by anyone with 3 or more working brain cells.

What a disgrace the left has become.

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

Smells like a plant. No politician that wants any sort of career would suggest anything of the sort. And I can't see anyone in the FDNY telling them they have to take it down. There's more to this story.
Also, you just do what any dude rolling up on a bike says?

Nope, it's exactly as they said. Email attached in this article.

If you can do this:

Then they should be able to have their red stripe flag.

 

[Funzo Hoss]

You have to blame the idiots in this New York District that voted this idiot in. Ask them why they voted for this shit.

yet they're seen as desecration just the same....

fact is, i side with all those legless vets that appeared before Congress during their 'flag burning' testimonies
