Thread: Down right Un-American...

Had a pretty fun day at the beach today. Got to much sun and a little burnt. However it took a sharp left turn for the worse while pulling into our neighborhood. I noticed that our neighbors a few doors down and around the corner had their garbage cans out on the curb. Not abnormal since garbage day is tomorrow. The thing that immediately drew my attention and turned me 50 shades of angery was the tattered and faded American flag that they just rolled up and tossed out in the can. OMG can you be any more down right un-American and disrespectful than that? I hit the brakes scaring my passengers a bit, did an illegal u-turn and pulled in their driveway. After beating on the door for a few minutes they didn't answer or weren't home. Which in hindsight was probably smart given my state of mind on the issue at hand. So I took it out of the garbage and properly folded it up with my teen daughter and her girlfriends. I have some military neighbors that Im pretty close with. They are going to take it to the base and give it a proper send off. Ive never been so infuriated at anyone that lived that close to me.

Im still a bit wound up about this. I mean c'mon, really????
