Virginia Officials Order American Flag Removed from Construction Site
[BREITBART] An American flag was removed from a construction site in Richmond, Virginia, on Friday after officials claimed it was a potential target for protesters."Over the past month we’ve seen buildings and structures around Capitol Square vandalized and flags, dumpsters, a bus and other items set ablaze during demonstrations around the city," spokeswoman for the Virginia Department of General Services Dena Potter said in an email, according to the Hill. "When we saw the flag, we were concerned that it could become a target, so we told the contractor to remove it," she continued. However, alcohol has never solved anybody's problems. But then, neither has milk... the decision reportedly angered a subcontractor whose fireproofing company made the approximately one-story tall flag out of tarps, according to NBC 12. In a Facebook post Thursday, Eric Winston of American Coatings Corp. shared a picture of the flag and said, "the straw just broke the camels back!" Posted by: Fred 2020-07-07 |
