A day before Flag Day, two city employees were spotted using the Stars and Stripes to mop the floor of a filthy Coney Island restroom, a witness told The Post.
Jose Gonzalez, a Guardian Angel who was on patrol on the boardwalk Saturday afternoon, said he saw two employees from the Parks Department wiping down a men’s bathroom with a flag mop.
An enraged elderly veteran confronted them, saying they “can’t use the flag to wipe up urine and s–t from the floor.”
“He was really angry,” said Gonzalez, 44, a 26-year veteran of the Guardian Angels who also manages a security company.
“The Parks guy didn’t see what the big deal was and told him, ‘It’s just a symbol.’”
The veteran stormed out of the restroom, said Gonzalez.
Gonzalez snapped a photo of the mophead.
“This is an absolute disgrace especially one day before Flag Day, an honored day that no one is discussing in New York City,” said disgusted Guardian Angels founder Curtis Sliwa. “Clearly, we are not educating our citizens. At a time when we are all divided, it’s the flag that brings us together.”
The city Parks Department did not immediately return Post calls for comment.

Trump Speech On Law Enforcement Upgrades To Standards And Best Practices https://www.pscp.tv/w/1djGXoBzvPVKZ
An excellent speech today, because Trump does not deny the problems with policing and race relations. He does not ignore the problems, or blame others for them. Instead, HE FIXES THE PROBLEMS, with evidence-based solutions, that transcend politics.
——– And let’s face it, Democrats WANT cities to fail, to be fraught with slums and poverty, and mistrust. They are easier to subjugate and control that way. All the Democrats do is promise to ‘fix poverty’, but of course they never do. Trump touches on this in his speech, that after decades of one-party rule, urban Democrats have made things worse in those cities. TAKE OUT ghetto crime, and the USA is an ultra-peaceful country. TAKE OUT ghetto health problems, and the USA life expectancy is much higher. TAKE OUT ghetto hopelessness, and US suicide rates are much lower.
More than 70% of convicted felons are Democrats. Of course they are, criminals are not going to vote for law and order politicians. Almost ALL the US high crime areas are Democrat cites. Most murder victims are Democrats, and most murderers are Democrats.
“Study shows 7 in 10 felons register as Democrats” http://m.washingtonexaminer.com/jail-survey-nearly-3/4-felons-register-as-democrats/article/2541412
Approx 99% of US mass murderers have been Democrats
Ach Yes, all true. This whole crisis comes from Democrat tyrant culture, that seeks to subjugate the citizenry. Almost all ghettos worldwide occur in countries ruled by tyrants. And US ghetto blacks are subjugated, and do the vast majority of the murders, and they mainly murder blacks. This means that the vast majority of both USA perps and victims are ghetto Democrats.Conservative Republican cities have much lower crime rates. Blacks who live in those cities also have lower crime rates. Conservative and Republican blacks have crime and victim rates that are similar to conservative and Republican whites.Therefore, there is nothing genetic about USA black crime, it is characteristic of ghetto culture everywhere on earth. People who live in ghettos have high crime rates because they lack sufficient economic liberties to live normal lives. And tyrants foster ghettos to facilitate subjugation. Poor, sick, hopeless people are easier to subjugate. And that is what Trump wants to fix, the Democrat tyrant culture that causes high crime rates.
2013 was not that good of an example. In that year, for every black murdered by a white, there were close to twelve whites murdered by blacks. The average, over the past quarter century, is for every black murdered by a white, around nine whites are murdered by blacks.
When will all of the black people “take a knee”? This is a very serious problem.
Some way, some how, Democrats will always find away to “blame whitey”. White Democrats do this by claiming that it is the bourgeoisie, capitalist pig white man who is to blame for all social problems. That false logic trick conceals the fact that the majority of American socialists are white. But they are ‘good whites’, who are not bourgeoisie, capitalist pigs, and they are socialists, and for good measure, they also pretend to hate their own whiteness. [But they still live in white neighborhoods, have white friends, and send their kids to white schools.]
Thats’ disgusting. More proof to me that even black Democrats are in on the tyrant culture exploitation and subjugation of blacks. They use them for their votes, and treat them like dirt.
Well, felix, maybe we disagree about the motivations and actions of Ivanka and Jared. And of course, the picture of Trump and Ivanka is just a picture.
Government programs pay black mothers to stay single. They get more welfare money if the father is absent from the home. Those types of Democrat boondoggles must end. School choice would also help a lot.
Felix: Yes, Johnson was important in designing the current black subjugation system. He was a leftist ‘new-dealer’ from the 1930’s, who often used the N word while in presidential office, and he helped salvage the Democrats after they lost power in the South. Republicans started winning there, because the newly enfranchised blacks voted Republican. The Dems responded by turning hard left, shunned their reactionary red-neck image, and chased the blacks north, to subjugate them there. “Helping the poor” was a very successful commie fiction in those northern cities, where blacks were used to a hard-scrabble life.
And the head scratcher is how the “god fathers” of the mobs could sit in churches in prayer while their hitmen were on the streets fulfilling “elimination contracts”
Yes. And what’s the difference between a “made man” on his way to a hit and a physician murdering a baby, with the order given by the expectant “mother”. A contract hit is a contract hit.
Exactly. What comes to mind is Gov. Northum, a pediatric neurologist by profession, who remarked to keep the new born comfortable while his/her fate is decided.
Very true. Wonder how many women look back and are tortured by the decisions they made. I debated someone years ago about the accidental death of a friend. He referred to it as a tragedy. I replied, a tragedy to me was a traumatic event that resulted because of a fateful decision causing one to be tortured the rest of one’s life wishing “if only I had….”
promoting sex and giving out shoddy birth control ensures a steady supply of dead baby bodies for big bucks. 20 million dead black babies and they are worried about statues?
I do not believe that planned parenthood should receive a dime’s worth of taxpayer funding.
However, to place the blame, of the cycle that you referenced on planned parenthood, is like blaming firearm manufacturers for sixty-four blacks being shot in Chicago, on a single weekend.
The blame lies with the murderer, or attempted murderer.
In the case of abortion, it’s the “almost mother” that murders the baby. Place blame where it belongs.
It’s all part of the agenda. planned parenthood just does the murder part and gets to sell the corpses for big bucks. It is the people that would convince a mother that murdering her baby is just healthcare. Pregnancy is not a disease.
Don’t just reference the “black on black”‘ murders. View the chart. Almost as many white people are murdered by blacks, as whites being murdered by whites.
Just look at the chart.
When are blacks going to “take a knee” and apologize for the terrible atrocities that they commit upon other races?
Over 80% of ALL violent street crime, in San Francisco, is perpetrated by blacks against those of East Asian descent.
When will blacks take the knee? When will statues of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., be taken down?
No Justice. No Peace.

@NYC_Mayor @MayorBilldeBlasio are you going to fire these A-holes and I rarely stoop to use such language but there is no other language to dignify them. If you don’t fire them or suspend them for 6-months without pay then the same word applies to you. It’s funny how you pride yourself being this Comrade type & even through Andropov you would have been shot for allowing a Soviet Flag to be used this way. So much for that openness in closed societies.
Just a symbol? The American flag is more than a just a symbol, it is the personification of the American spirit and the sacrifice of all Americans that love their country. The hate, ignorance and hypocrisy of the left is mind boggling.

Oh, I GET it now. From the first ‘taking a knee’ till now it has finally sunk in. BLACK PEOPLE ARE NOT AMERICANS.
The hyphenated American stuff was on purpose. America is a melting pot. Hyphenating by country of origin divides. When was the last time you heard someone refer to themselves as a European American or a British American?

Pamela, what the H is going on in the country? If there is going to be a civil war let’s get it on
It is coming. The democrats are enemies of free people and the republic in which they live. They are going to have to be eliminated and the cost will be tremendous. I believe far worse than the civil War. Re-education is not an option.

The French see the flag as a bourgeois symbol and very few own one. I remember a few years back when a terrorist ran down and killed dozens of people celebrating a holiday on a beachfront boardwalk, there was suddenly a resurgence of national pride but no stores carried any French flags. They could buy an al Qaeda flag but not a French one. Is this where we are heading?
you go a bit far with France. With the muslimization of France you can be right for the Al Qaeda / ISIS flag. Muslim separatism is not that far from us.
The French flag is usually for public buildings. But for me, the French flag is the symbol of the quite corrupt and haughty Giscard d’Estaing, the cancerous leftist but euro-neoliberal Mitterrand, the thief with a great heart Chirac, the totally corrupted and vain Sarkozy, the lazy and sex addict Hollande, the shitty neoliberal and cock sucker Macron. I voted for Chirac because he is not socialist and Hollande to get rid of Sarkozy. Also the helpless but kind of “Royal” and many times for the Le Pen dynasty
Since 2018 I have 2 French flags but no opportunity to display them, maybe when Macron is gone.
She might be elected in 2022 but she will only be a facefigure because she is not going to have a majority in the parliament. But if she plays well and speak well she could dissolve the parliament (but fortunately not the way AH did in Germany) She will be dispissed the way DJT is hated but DJT tells the truth. The truth is not always pleasant for the leftist brainwashed braindead minds
That is what they are doing and that is their goal.

This is all being done by Palestine students inside America. They have millions of Palestine people here in the country who are doing all violence. President trump needs to bank Palestinian people immediately.
Trump won’t get any support for that and that is a problem.
Mitch O’Connell is in FAVOR of changing the names of our military bases to please the left. Trump was emphatically against this. We are self destructing from within.

The parks employee should have had that flag removed from him, then been given a ‘civics lesson’ with the business end of that mop. No other way. Because, ‘it’s just a symbol.’
Problem is they enable evil while not able to see evil thanks to pro-jihadi left/liberal indoctrination in schools/colleges where real history of islam and America is no longer taught.
That’s what happens when you have “protected classes” of people…..

And don’t expect them to respond for what is there to say? They already said “it’s just a symbol” and that speaks it all to such evil. They do not care that they do not care. Get that? Don’t care that they don’t care. Good thing it was not a Sentinel Guard who saw them do that.
Years ago we made the mistake of saying trashing our flag was okay because it was freedom of speech. By law, it is not a crime to do that. That should be reversed.

Ghana has asked American blacks to “Come Home”, One American black who now lives there said it was a wonderful place to live. How I wish thousands of the discontented blacks in America would heed this advice. If they want to call themselves “African Americans”, let them realize this name by immigrating to Ghana and making a new life there. Good riddance.

Land that my father’s died, land of the pilgram’s pride, from every country side, let freedom ring. This used to be the “pledge of allegiance “, not the washed down, liberal excuse our brain-washed children sing today.

Some previous judges have hinted sympathy for veterans and cops treating flag desecration as “fighting words” but no cases have come up that I am aware of.
What is NYCs policy on extreme rhetoric during working hours and how does this fit as “free speech” (as proclaimed by Federal Judges) when government can limit even 1A speech during working hours?
Did the Park Service Employees buy those flags with their own money, or steal flags from taxpayer paid supplies?

This subsection does not prohibit any conduct consisting of the disposal of a flag when it has become worn or soiled.
(b)
As used in this section, the term “flag of the United States” means any flag of the United States, or any part thereof, made of any substance, of any size, in a form that is commonly displayed.
(c)
Nothing in this section shall be construed as indicating an intent on the part of Congress to deprive any State, territory, possession, or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico of jurisdiction over any offense over which it would have jurisdiction in the absence of this section.
(d)

An appeal may be taken directly to the Supreme Court of the United States
from any interlocutory or final judgment, decree, or order issued by a
United States district court ruling upon the constitutionality of
