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.

Everyone has the civil right to fly the American flag, thank you for standing firm and I hope it doesn’t cost you your jobs.
Bring out the flags folks!!
The ones who told them to take down the American flag were traitors to this country. They should never be concerned what the evil Muslim terrorists or the evil Muslim CAIR says….godless scum bags.
Union people getting a look at the world the Democrats have made for them. Wake up! The Democrat party of your fathers is dead and gone. Trump 2016!

I’VE NEVER BEEN ON A CONSTRUCTION SITE THAT DID NOT FLY THE AMERICAN FLAG AFTER THE LAST PIECE OF STEEL WAS HUNG ON TOP OF THE BUILDING. MOST CONSTRUCTION SITES FLY THE FLAG AT THEIR OFFICE TRAILER. I STILL HAVE THE ONE WE USED, IT’S A LITTLE FADED BUT STILL A NICE FLAG OF JOB MEMORIES.
Why!
Tell them to come and get it!
Your comments sound like a bunch of grade school children. Grow up and respect both parties. You can’t fly a plane with one wing. You must have both. There must be balance.
