California DoT Nixes Public Display of American Flag, Calls it "Impermissible Public
California DoT Nixes Public Display of American Flag, Calls it "Impermissible Public Expression"
Posted by Aurelius at 00-04:00>3:23 PM Can someone please tell me what world we live in when we cannot erect our own American flag because it might upset some people? In the town of Orcutt, California, thousands of dollars in donations have been gathered to create a monument to fallen soldiers and the branches of our military. The memorial would go between "a highway exit and a park-and-ride lot;" a pole would rise out of the center and display the American flag. The California Department of Transportation was okay with the plan... that is, until it was revealed that our nation's flag would be flying. When CalTrans heard, they stymied the effort, declaring the display of an American flag an "impermissible act of “public expression.”" The panel that ruled that the American flag could not be displayed demanded "viewpoint neutrality" at the monument. In other words, they declared it illegal to solely fly the US flag, stating that other flags must also have the right to be flown at the memorial, be it "the British flag, the Nazi flag, or the Jolly Rogers."
In response to concerns, CalTrans wrote: To answer your question regarding the court’s decision in Brown v. California Department of Transportation pertaining to flying the American Flag in the State right of way, it was established that, “The display of the United States flag constituted expressive activity, within the meaning of the First Amendment.”And do you want any more proof that CalTrans has no idea what it is doing? More from the Weekly Standard: Last summer, a few days before the Fourth of July, CalTrans painted over a 35-foot American flag mural on a hillside in the East Bay, several hours north of Orcutt, which had been completed in the wake of the terrorist attacks. CalTrans painted over the mural with gray paint.http://punditpress.blogspot.com/2011...isplay-of.html

Apparently California Department of Transportation should more realistically be called The Mexican Controlled & Pandering D.O.T.,...just as most all other hypocritical Officialdom Departments of California (many in rest of America also) actually have become.
Betcha that no California Bureaucrats would even DARE similarly deny a Mexican flag from being flown ANYWHERE in California. Even though California's Political Death Rate obviously not near that of Mexico's, Bay State politicos fear great retribution just as much as Mexican political leaders do. Regardless, can anyone even imagine The French, Germans, Italians or any nations (Mexico inclusive) taking down their respective flags anywhere,...just because their Criminally Illegal Alien Invaders might find "THEIR" flags offensive? I don't think so & not in a million years. So then, I guess it fair saying that a lot of Americans have apparently whimped-out or mellowed-out & become quite politically suckered into being POLITICALLY-CORRECT (epitome of an oxymoron). Too Bad for: "The Home of The Brave". Sure hope such a disgusting mass mental blight & character failing disease causing fanatical love of everything alien & anti-American, doesn't spread to New Jersey? We already have enough problems here. Can't solve Mexico's problems. Neil
