Police seize upsidedown American flag
Police went too far!
"WAUSAU, Wis. -- An American flag flown upside down as a protest in a northern Wisconsin village was seized by police before a Fourth of July parade and the businessman who flew it - an Iraq war veteran - claims the officers trespassed and stole his property."
Flying the flag upside down is not disrespectful as people would believe. It is merely a sign of distress. The police ultimately returned the flag the next day but I hope to see more done to rectify this infringement.
Comments anyone?
