    Default Michigan homeowner's Nazi flag sparks outrage in historic immigrant community

    Residents in a Michigan historic immigrant community and some city officials there have denounced a homeowner's decision to fly a Nazi flag, in an area lauded for its diversity and inclusion.

    It's one thing to have a nazi flag in a collection of war memorabilia, but flying it outside of one's home is seriously over the top.
    I don't believe in vandalism at all, but that's almost begging for it.

    First thing I thought of.

    This is like putting a 'trump sucks' bumper sticker on your car. While it's the truth, you're begging for broken windows when you come out of the store.
    Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    Funny you say that. The one thing you do not see anywhere on any car is a Biden/Harris sticker.

    Where we live -- in a rural part of the Frozen North -- most people have nice vehicles that they prefer not to besmirch with political bumper stickers for anyone. Sorry that you are forced to live in MAGATville where your car gets torched if it has any sort of not-fascist-approved signage. Even the wrong dealership spells death to your rusted out pieces of shit, eh?

    Along with several others on this thread, do you find it acceptable to burn a house down because it's flying a flag you don't like?
