I'm so sorry that its come to the point where patriotism makes little girls publicly apologize to their city council. In Duluth Georgia this happened the other night. In response to a flag being painted on a cul-de-sac people across the city, and several city council members became involved in forcing the painters to remove it. Just one of the putrid reasons cited was that it might set a precedent for Neo-Nazi's painting swastika's on the sidewalk. This fails the the litmus test for logic in numerous ways, among them:
- Neo Nazi's aren't overly known for paying much attention to the law.
- If a Neo Nazi neighborhood wants to paint a swastika on their street, let them. One should always strive to know people, and their actions are stellar way to get acquainted with them.
- A swastika has never been a mainstream symbol of American Patriotism.
The Duluth city council not only should
feel sorry,
they are sorry.
