Ping--Clarification re: San Bernardino Flag Display
At issue is not the small U.S. flag normally flown but the big one that has previously been at City Hall.
Four City Council Members have refused to permit the large flag to be flown on patriotic National Holidays, for fear of 'offending' someone.
We want that large American Flag again flown PROUDLY, on America's National Holidays!
In the Right Column for May 15 is a link to a PDF file. Item 43 records the motion as having failed.
Here is the exact text from that PDF:

MOTION: That the Facilities Department be directed to display the 22’x30’ U.S. Flag on Memorial Day, Flag Day and on Fourth of July.
