In Illinois it is a state law atleastDeath from the Sea wrote:Apparently a business in Reno was flying the Mexico flag over the US flag, which is illegal (or at least that is what EVERYONE says), and a veteran took the initiative and cut it down.

I see this often around my city and I take corrective action in the form of making the business owner fix it. I don't know the specific law but I always BS them with the old "it is a Federal Law, so breaking that is an automatic felony" and they fix it so fast your head spins.
Anyone know what the law is and where you can find it?

So your response to him painting the viewpoints of people on this board with broad strokes is to paint the opposites in broad strokes.SirNitram wrote:Remember: Knowing what the fuck you're talking about and not freaking out over a peice of clothes' positioning makes you an evil leftist!

If he's lying about being a police officer, he's a liar. If he's honest, he's not very competent and abuses his power, and he's an asshole. I didn't know such a person deserves much in the way of respect. My bad.CaptainChewbacca wrote:Or, you know, he went somewhere. Its only been 4 hours.

So, are you implying that it is tragic that he isn't aware of the all the laws in the nation, and in doing so implying that police should be aware of all the nations laws?Raw Shark wrote:It's tragic, isn't it?

If so, then how do you justify this when not even lawyers know all the laws in the nation which is why each individual state has its own responsibilities, and the Feds have their own.
Maybe I'm misreading you.

I don't know if I call asking a question "begging", but whatever. Anyway, SDN is a resource and he was utilizing it. Hopefully, he'll look at what's been said here and realize that he is making a mistake and then better himself.Kanastrous wrote:Seems like a trained sworn peace office should at least know where to look, when he's researching the law.

Also, state laws can be difficult to find online. Example - The Utah site is a piece of shit that never works right for me...

If you follow the line of posts the "lying to a citizen" matter wasn't apart of this line of responses. However, yes that is bad, but I think he'll see the mistake he's been making and correct it.Keevan_Colton wrote:How about him making up laws?Kamakazie Sith wrote: So, are you implying that it is tragic that he isn't aware of the all the laws in the nation, and in doing so implying that police should be aware of all the nations laws?

It's not just Texans When I was twelve, my family moved to Florida for two years. My dad had the temerity to fly the Union Jack, but didn't bother with the US flag since we only had one flag pole. The neighbors went absolutely apeshit.Texans are notoriously proud of their flags, and it may be a simple matter of an emotional outburst.

Re: American Veteran strikes back
I realize you may not be aware of the concept, but it's called 'Mockery'. Because he's a contemptuous slug of a troll who, when he finds he can't back up his shit, runs off. After the third thread where he did this, I find it easier just to mock him than expect results.Ender wrote:So your response to him painting the viewpoints of people on this board with broad strokes is to paint the opposites in broad strokes.SirNitram wrote:Remember: Knowing what the fuck you're talking about and not freaking out over a peice of clothes' positioning makes you an evil leftist!

Well, that's because you filthy Communists need to keep your flags off of our God-given lands. Also, I hope you told your neighbors to kiss your ass 'cause, you know, like, it's a piece of fabric.Psychic_Sandwich wrote:It's not just Texans When I was twelve, my family moved to Florida for two years.

Certainly not, that would be absurd. I do, however, find it sad that he would go out of his way to enforce a law that he isn't sure about, and then come up with SDN as the best channel for inquiry available to him when it occured to him that he may have been abusing his power. I might even go so far as to speculate that these facts suggest that he actually doesn't give a shit if it was legal or not and just enjoys pushing people around.
I think you're delusional. His statements in thread are only the latest with which he has more-or-less reinforced my worst suspicions about the police.Kamikaze Sith wrote:I think he'll see the mistake he's been making and correct it.

I didn't personally, being only a wee lad at the time, but Dad offered them tea, and very politely told them to bugger off.Chardok wrote:Well, that's because you filthy Communists need to keep your flags off of our God-given lands.

I'm not saying he was in any way deserving of respect, I was just pointing out that there may be other reasons besides 'hiding' to explain why he hasn't posted.

Flying a single flag isn't a problem, its only when you fly more than one.

Folks, chill the fuck out, as Chardok said. This is a worthless tangent. And like most worthless tangents, it can and will be removed and dumped. If he comes back, he can answer. But leaping up and bouncing up and down because a whole four hours have passed is stupid.CaptainChewbacca wrote:I'm not saying he was in any way deserving of respect, I was just pointing out that there may be other reasons besides 'hiding' to explain why he hasn't posted.
