State officials in Virginia ordered the removal of a large American flag from a construction site ahead of the Fourth of July, calling it a potential target for people protesting racial injustice and police brutality. How pathetic. “When we saw the flag, we were concerned that it could become a target so we told the contractor to remove it,” department spokeswoman Dena Potter told The Washington Post in an email.
This from the USA Today.
"Since when is this flag, on this weekend, IN THIS COUNTRY, a Target!!" Eric Winston of American Coatings Corp. wrote in a Facebook post, according to the newspaper. "Let me guess, if I had a black lives matter flag it would be 'ok'!?"
We now see that even liberal state officials are afraid of their own base.
