Poll of the Day » Pennsylvania Cop is SUSPENDED for Removing a NAZI FLAG!!!
Do you think that cop was a hero for removing that ugly flag?


A Pennsylvania Sheriff's deputy was suspended after he removed a NAZI FLAG that was flying off private property!!

Deputy Colin Meeker was suspended without pay and is under investigation for going on private property of a white supremacist group and removed a flag displaying Nazi symbols while on the job

Daniel Burnside, the owner of that flag and director of the National Socialist Movement said a neighbor witnessed him getting out of his car at 4pm and removing it

Daniel said he climbed over a wall and went 15ft onto his property and removed it from his flagpole

Colin also works for the Pennsylvania National Guard and was asked by Daniel to make a VIDEO TAPED APOLOGY after he had already apologized in person and returned the flag..but he REFUSED to make a video taped apology and now Daniel said it made him believe he had no remorse and was very unprofessional so now he filed charges against him.

He said "It wasn't until he returned my damaged flag that i learned his name and now i demand he pay for it with his JOB"

The National Socialist movement is a neo-nazi group that believes in closing the borders from immigrants and a white society. They also took part in the Charlottesville march where they clashed with antifa. They were also very vocal in support of President Trump and his policy to ban muslims and deporting mexicans

Daniel wrote on his page "He's the man we've been waiting for"

Do you think this Cop was Hero for removing that racist flag? let's see what people think

Daniel - Racist Freak

Unfortunately it probably is against policy.
Fortunately at worst he'll get a few days off.
if i was the sheriff, i'd give him a raise
If it were a black man removing a confederate flag how many of you would say still say "yes"?
You are now blinking and breathing manually.

if i was the sheriff and the cop was a black dude removing a confederate flag i'd give him a raise

why would you even use this as an argument

nazis, by definition, are racist

the confederate flag is racist

ergo: taco bell fries are delicious
Crazy how someone gets in trouble for this but is let off for killing someone for no reason.
He should have used civil forfeiture to take it, then there'd be no problem. Also, pretty fucked that taking a flag gets you suspended without pay, but murdering an unarmed man in cold blood gets you suspended with pay.

private property

As much as I hate it, people can fly whatever flag they want on their own property. Cop was in the wrong.

So... trespassing and vandalism? And he just burst on their property and violated their free speech? idk, sounds like a stormtrooper.

So breaking the law to do whatever you want makes you a good cop?

He was violating someone else's First Amendment rights, as well as theft of private property.

I don't care how rotten someone else's views are. You do not suppress their right to free speech unless if they are speaking about doing something illegal.
crazy surprising that zeus is defending a nazi again

I almost never agree with zeus, but this is clear over reach and doing it on the job makes the city responsible for the suppression of freedom of speech. The guy should be fired. I don't want to find out later that citizens are having accidents around the guy, because he believes that him breaking the law is somehow ok and right just because the guy he did it to is probably a scumbag.

Ironic. Removing his right to freedom of speech is a fascist act. Be better than nazis

I believe in the constitution. The nazi man has a right to be a piece of trash and have his views heard. The cop has the right to call the man an idiot and promote just as loudly on why the guy is an idiot. The cop does not have the right to break into the man's locked property, steal his possessions, and shut down his freedom of speech, the nazi also does not have the right to break into a black guy's house steal their possession and tell them they can't promote their views.

But even if he did, it would be as a private citizen and he would face community service or possibly jail time. The cop is in uniform, representing the people and the government in a position of authority. Not only should he be fired, I would be ok with him getting jail time. IF he did it off the clock in civilian clothes, I would probably be ok with a fine and probation while still being concerned at what other laws he doesn't put much stock in.

you are confused. it's the other way around. we are better than him because we stand up for his rights even though he would deny us ours. It's just like how Batman is better than his enemies because they would kill him but he refuses to kill them

this man is not in danger of rising up and taking over the country. if he makes any move to overthrow the government or hurt people he goes to prison. but he is allowed to have a flag.

Dangerously ignorant thought process. Who gets the final on say what is considered intolerant? One could say, "destroy Christianity and Islam because of their intolerance toward homosexuality!" Destroy republicans because of their intolerance toward transgenders! Destroy the NFL because of its intolerance of the national anthem. Leftists need to stop with their militant, fascist attitudes towards offensive speech and ideas. You aren't destroying the ideologies... you're destroying open discourse which will eventually lead to the opposite of your desired effect

Yeah.

Free speech = government can't do that.

Not allowed. Not professional. Personally I would have no problem doing that myself, but I'm not a cop, and I also wouldn't get caught.

Doesn't matter if the person is a cop or not. Trespassing and theft are both crimes.

Are you seriously defending actual fascism and the sort of strongarm tactics used by those violent regimes?

So basically you're promoting actual fascism to remove the possible maybe threat of a hypothetical fascism that's unlikely to ever happen? Keep in mind that the biggest advocates of silencing dissenting speech were Hitler, Mao, Stalin, and a who's who of the scariest guys in history. Is that company you want to keep?

How fucked up is it that you're basically advocating that it's better that police take the law into their own hands whenever they want than potentially doing something wrong while carrying out their actual duties?

Oh, is that like the old, "If you defend a gay man, that means you're gay?" or "Maybe you're standing up for a Jew because you're secretly Jewish?" You know, the classic baseless allegation hurled by people to bully critics picking apart your bullshit into silence?

He literally made the argument first and I turned it back at him. But what a shock which side you chose to attack despite that.
First Amendment violation, pure and simple. Doesn't matter whether the guy is a Nazi sympathizer or not, he has the same rights as everyone else.

And folks like you always immediately resort to calling people nazi apologists when in reality we're standing for a broader concept (free speech) and not actually defending nazis. We're defending freedom of speech against fascists like you who want to make whatever offends you illegal. It's not a solution and we've already been down this road with Stalin and Hitler. Outlawing ideas is fascist and it's amazing that people like you don't see the irony in your own beliefs. I don't care if it's black power, nazis, or Islam or whatever. The government should have no place in storming people's private property to retrieve flags

you turned it back on me in a weird way that doesn't work. you accused me of being a nazi just cause I stand for free speech. nevermind that I even said that trying to be a true nazi will get you in prison if you follow the philosophy to it's bitter end, just earlier in this topic. but just cause I say people are allowed to have flags I must be a nazi

I wouldn't say he's a hero, but I wouldn't snitch on him. Also, if I saw any of my neighbors with a nazi or confederate flag, I'd probably move...
