Texas: Man told to take down his US flag, as it’s “a threat towards the Muslim community”
Jihad Watch ^

It’s a time-honored principle: when in Muslim countries, you must conform your behavior to Muslim sensibilities. And when in non-Muslim countries, you must conform your behavior to Muslim sensibilities. This is the kind of thing that only happens in nations that have lost their confidence and their way, are vulnerable to any action of their enemies, and in imminent danger of destruction.

“Man says apartment complex called his US flag a ‘threat to Muslim community,’” by Alice Barr, KHOU 11 News, June 18, 2014 (thanks to Robert):

WEBSTER, Texas — A Webster man says his apartment complex manager told him his American flag was a “threat to the Muslim community,” and that he has to take it down. But he’s not giving up without a fight.

Stepping onto Duy Tran’s balcony in Webster, one thing is clear: “It means a lot to me,” he said.

He’s talking about his American flag that he proudly put up when he moved in just a few days ago. But then an apartment manager at the Lodge on El Dorado told him he had to take it down.

“What really stunned me is that she said it’s a threat towards the Muslim community,” said Tran. “I’m not a threat toward anybody.”

We tried to ask a manager if that’s exactly what was said, but she just handed us a statement, refused to answer any questions, and called an officer to escort us off the property, before we could press any further:

” - - - Nope, Obama surrendered. - - - “

That does it!

How in the “Obama” can I keep up with the news if my weekly newspaper doesn’t print the important news!

Your post needs a minor edit. In first sentence, replace “complete” with “political”..

All I ever hear about is how they are "offended" at every turn.

"Offended" is code speak for "putting the camel's nose under the tent."

The Camel's Nose In The Tent.

One cold night, as an Arab sat in his tent, a camel gently thrust his nose under the flap and looked in. "Master," he said, "let me put my nose in your tent. It's cold and stormy out here." "By all means," said the Arab, "and welcome" as he turned over and went to sleep.

A little later the Arab awoke to find that the camel had not only put his nose in the tent but his head and neck also. The camel, who had been turning his head from side to side, said, "I will take but little more room if I place my forelegs within the tent. It is difficult standing out here." "Yes, you may put your forelegs within," said the Arab, moving a little to make room, for the tent was small.

Finally, the camel said, "May I not stand wholly inside? I keep the tent open by standing as I do." "Yes, yes," said the Arab. "Come wholly inside. Perhaps it will be better for both of us." So the camel crowded in. The Arab with difficulty in the crowded quarters again went to sleep. When he woke up the next time, he was outside in the cold and the camel had the tent to himself.

Fly Old Glory high, baby, and relax in the rocker on
the porch, wiping down ‘ol’ betsy’.

When a people become too civilized to do what’s necessary to survive in an uncivilized world, they won’t survive, nor do they deserve to survive.

You can ‘t ask a carcinoma to leave. It must be made to depart the body it is afflicting. It needs to be resected.

Part one of my tagline.

Well if they don’t know it, boo freaking hoo.

You don’t like it, you are free to go back to the hellhole you came from.

This “I’m offended so I’m justified in what I do” is a tactic of the left and that is where the muslims have learned it from.

Hey, I'm offended by the homosexuals and their preempting "GAY" and the rainbow. Their flag is bragging about their perversion. But I leave them alone as long as they don't try to grope MY crotch or get near my grandkids.

I suspect that he is naturalized Vietnamese, many of whom are intensely patriotic Americans. They also score impressively high on the stubbornness scale.

Immigrants who do it right could be a powerful force. Our messaging is too pathetic though.

Yes, they should move to another country. Nobody is forcing these bigots and anti-Americans to live here.
