OT: truly funny/sad story re: flag and Camaro - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

A next door neighbor is selling his house. Been on the market for several weeks. This morning the Realtor told me that the fact I fly the Us flag
24/7 and have a Camaro had discouraged a couple of buyers, one of whom said, do you think he owns guns? What have come to? I was so pissed that I pulled the Camaro out of the garage into the driveway and put the Stars and Bars up next to US flag.

I find that incredibly sad that we live in a society where there's something wrong with flying the American Flag!

I fly it 24/7/365 -- light shines on it at night - and I learned this from my mother and father -

Good for you...Stars and Bars might be a little over the top, though...lol...

...Tell that Realtor to go sell property in North Korea...

you should have told the realtor that your wife is also your cousin, and to stick his/her stereotype as far up his/her ass as possible.

Cheveey57 · 04-18-2013, 01:39 PM

keep flying the flag, Anybody that doesn't like it you wouldn't want as a neighbor anyway.

Cheveey57 · 04-18-2013, 01:41 PM

Or tell the realtor that you will take the flag down for 2% commission on the sale of the house. LOL

Fogey · 04-18-2013, 01:42 PM

I was just really pissed. Replaced it with the Bonnie Blue Flag.

Rico · 04-18-2013, 01:43 PM

This country has gone to crap. I remember a couple years ago they tried to tell this WWII purple heart recipient that he couldn't fly his flag in front of his house because people were offended......if you don't like the US or it's flag. GTFO!!!
