African Immigrant Is Offended by American Flag
Have we sunk so low that those running our institutions do not have the backbone to stand up for their own country? You no doubt have read the story about Debbie McLucas who last week mounted a 3 by 5 foot American flag on the wall of an office she shares with three other supervisors at Kindred Hospital in Mansfield, Texas. When she got to work on Friday her flag had been taken down because another supervisor, an African immigrant (probably Muslim) had complained that the display was offensive. The complaining employee has lived in the United States for 14 years without trying to become a US citizen.
This is what our school system has wrought: adults so overly tolerant, so politically correct, so stupid and so cowardly that they would rather remove our flag and offend every American citizen than offend a non-American immigrant who despises this country.
Thanks to the reaction of the blogosphere, the hospital has reversed itself (1). But why would those running the hospital need the blogosphere, and by blogosphere I mean the non-Liberal blogosphere, to teach them the proper way to behave in America.
So if you run a coffee shop, a school, a hospital, a barbershop, please be advised that putting up American flags all over your place of business is not only the legally right and proper thing to do it is the morally right and proper thing to do. And let's go further, taking down our flag because a non-American asks you to is not only unpatriotic, it is the height of liberal absurdity. If I were running the hospital and anyone, immigrant or otherwise, had asked me to remove the flag, they would have been thrown out of the hospital. If they worked for me I would have fired them.
It is not enough that the hospital reversed itself, the hospital must fire this employee and USCIS, ICE, or Homeland Security (I don't know who runs immigration nowadays) should deport his African ass back to a country that he truly admires.
American lives were given in hoisting our flag, how dare the hospital, how dare anyone do this.
Amazingly, Kindred's Medical Facilities appear in Fortune Magazine’s List of Most Admired Companies. Most Admired Company? Not in my book.
