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.

Proud of you MEN!
it is torn, and needs to be replaced. Since I have seen ships on deadliest catch send someone up on the mast to replace a storm torn flag, it’s a piece of cake here….
Good, this is our flag and we have a right to fly it and be proud of it.
Most unions vote for the party that is for them. They are not party biased. For that matter mist of the workers vote for who they want in the first place. I know my dad is union and he is going for trump.
The m&ms pic is the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen.. You can say that about child care workers, school teachers, priests,men, or women.. Dumbass.. There are bad apples in every group of PEOPLE!!
Someone offended by our flag? GET THE F OUT OF AMERICA BECAUSE WE WON’T REMOVE IT!!!! POS LIBERALS!!!!!!
Keep the flag !!!
Who are these unamerican people who offended by the flag. They should be ashamed of themselves. So many men and women died fighting for it. I hate to see them lose their job but they are right “if you don’t stand for something you will fall for anything”.
Anyone who doesn’t like the flag, needs a one way ticket out of America!?!
