America has surrendered to wickedness. Moral perversion, collectivist economics, and radical Islam want to be the new masters of our land, and we as a nation are giving in.

Pray for our nation.

Maybe it’s like when Key West seceded back in ‘82, formed the Conch Republic, immediately surrendered and requested foreign aid.

Kind of scary that someone COULD put the flags at the bridge without being detected doing so, IMHO.

Me too. Got worst in 2012 when the liberals and many Republicans decided King Obama was better than Romney.

Looks like they’ve finally caught up with De Blasio’s term in office.

“many Republicans decided King Obama was better than Romney.”

Yeah, but they voted their “conscience” or “there was no difference between them” (BS) so we can’t blame them (so we’re told).

Don’t the Islamists use white flags to claim territory and to signal that any Infidel who does not pay a tax or does not convert to Mohammedism will be slaughtered? Look for a sharp uptick in unsolved murders in New York.

At a a glance, seems the white flag was used but abandoned by Islam long ago.

“The white flags are in the same place where American flags typically fly atop the bridge.”

1. Where did the American flags go?
2. Who took them?
3. Marking targets?
4. Sending a message?

Wake up. Someone with authority should close the bridge off to all traffic until the bridge is inspected. I don’t like this.

Earlier today we hoisted two white flags to signal our complete surrender of the Brooklyn Bridge bicycle path to pedestrians.

The humor some people are treating this with is irritating.

Remember, we can ‘afford to lose one city’.
