Northampton police have arrested a man in connection with a string of flag burnings around western Massachusetts.

A typewritten note left at the home and signed by the "American Patriot Liberation Front" claimed the United States was oppressing millions of people around the world.

Similar incidents were reported in Palmer, Greenfield and Amherst.

‘Eamon F. Mohan, whose family lives at 400 Bridge Road, said Sunday he did not want to comment about the incident. Firefighters responded to the home at 11 p.m. Friday.

A new, smaller, U.S. flag already hangs in place of the burned one. Mohan mentioned that his daughter is currently serving in the Marines and his son, who will graduate this year, has enlisted in the service.’

He attacked the house of ‘Real’ patriots.

Why wasn’t he charged with arson or attempted arson?

[rbosque]

Is that why millions want to come to the U.S.?

That guy is free to leave. They’ll take his place.

That area of Massachusetts has more leftwingers per square mile than ants.

He’s described as a homeless guy, but he has a truck and a typewriter. 65 years old and a complete POS.

The libs keep using that word “opression”. I do not think it means what they think it means.

Northampton Police obtained a search warrant for Wight’s truck today. The search turned up several items connected with the flag burnings, Borowski said, including copies of the “Liberation Front” letter.

"Douglas E. Wight, 65, whose address was listed as the streets of Northampton, was arrested at a Pleasant Street apartment at about 4:30 p.m. on charges of burning a tree, trespassing and defacing personal property. Wight allegedly set fire to a 5-by-9-foot American flag hanging from a tree outside 400 Bridge Road."

So this a$$wipe wasn't homeless at all. He was arrested at an apartment.

Thanks for the find.

Sounds like he was trying to be clever ?

American Patriot Liberation Front. What a dumbass.

Police say a flag-burning incident in Northampton may be the work of an anti-American anarchist group.

Periodically (I think yearly) they have a lottery here in Germany to win green cards to America. I know a very Liberal couple that are not married have two children and never fail to enter the chance to get a green card to America and have actually won at least once because “just in case they ever want to move to America”.

Even the ones that are not inclined to move to America are keeping their options open. lol

"the United States was oppressing millions of people around the world."

Do they mean US taxpayers who have their money taken as taxes by threat of force only to see it wasted on idiotic schemes?

Like giving welfare, health care and food "stamps" to illegals, new immigrants determined to overthrow our government and religions, and people just too lazy or drug addled to actually work to support themselves?

Or the hundreds of millions U$ dollars given to palestinian terrorists?

Or funding an ethanol program that doubles the price of corn, doubles the price of eggs and milk and raises the price of every other corn related food product?

Probably not.
