Only in California .
A California city has decided that for at least one day, the flag of communist China will get equal time with the �Star-Spangled Banner� flying �o�er the land of the free.� Despite the objections of residents and human rights groups, the city council of San Leandro, Calif., decided in a 4-3 vote to fly the flag over its city hall Oct. 1 to honor �the formation of the sovereign state in 1949 by communist leader Mao Zedong,� the San Jose Mercury News reported. Councilman Benny Lee explained he wanted to provide a sign of support for the city�s Chinese residents and signal that the city is open for Chinese business and investments.

Well, perhaps the "residents and civil rights groups" who objected to the idiocy can get together and recall the Marxist Socialist inspired city council numbskulls, just as happened in Colorado recently.

In honor of Mao, maybe the citizens should open up a can of Cultural Revolution on the 4 council members.

I'm pretty sure that is a federal offense to put another countries flag over the stars and stripes, let alone in place of it. If I lived there or near there, I'd go take it down and bring some dog crap to anoint it with.
We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

To bad a LARGE group of local citizens don't go and just take it down, then replace with the correct flag.

I think the city council should be thrown in a gulag to get the full communist experience.

I would assume most of the Chinese that live in that town are descendants of those who risked life and limb to escape from Mao. Why would the free Chinese-Americans want to honor him anyway?

I wonder if their school district has Mao's Little Red Book as required reading.

That was my guess when clicking on this thread, and all I need to know about the story. I wish they'd quit spreading to the other western states.........
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery. --Winston Churchill
