The order to remove Old Glory from work trucks or be terminated has created an army of iron-workers and riggers who will not comply. Industrial Piping Incorporated is a subcontractor for a plant expansion at CF Industries fertilizer plant in Louisiana. The crew has been working to complete the project since December 7, 2016, rolling onto the job each day with flags waving in the backs of their trucks. They are hard working Americans just doing their jobs.
Nothing had ever been said until that fateful day and then the gloves came off. Lose the flag or lose your job. The crew was furious and refused the order and showed up to work on Friday, flying their flags and prepared to lose their jobs. The crew, Jarome Hatch, Jim Lovel, Trevor Lewis, Robert Griffiths, Cody Johnson and Daryl McEntyre had the support of the community who got involved and planted American Flags in front of the CF Industry offices.

I would tell him to go$#%&!@*themselves my flag on that truck don’t have nothing to do with my job So try to explain that one when I go file benefits and sue your ass
That’s b******t! If the company they work or the city or county they live in doesn’t want the falg flown because it might offend someone that’s a load of c**p. What about the American workers who were born and raised here, don’t their lives matter also. Enough of this political correctness c**p. Political correctness originated back in 1914 and is based on cultural Marxism. Is that what you want for this great country? Think about it before you answer.
We are in American, we are the only COUNTRY that tries to keep everybody happy (the melting pot is running over) What other country can you go to that does not respect their flag, if they did not you do not see them commiting on it. People talks about how bad MEXICO is, but they celebrate that FLAG, like no other. I believe the only Flag should be display is the American Flag and no others.
I’d tell them to KMA…and drive on !
