Only in America will you see our own citizens ordered to remove our own Nation’s flag. Now a report is indicating that American flags were removed from three Arlington Fire District trucks Tuesday, sparking heated discussion on social media and disappointment from union members. Fire Chief Tory Gallante was directed by the Board of Fire Commissioners to remove the flags from the backs of the trucks during Monday’s meeting.
He declined to comment on specifics of why the decision was made but said he is “very disappointed with their direction.” Arlington Fire Commissioner Chairman Jim Beretta said the board majority feel the flags are a “liability during normal operations for our people and other motorists,” and that the board had not been consulted before the flags were mounted.

Crying shame. Perhaps those who were responsible for that idiotic order would prefer to display the nazi flag instead!
