WAUSAU, Wis. – An American flag flown upside down as a protest in a northern Wisconsin village was seized by police before a Fourth of July parade and the businessman who flew it — an Iraq war veteran — claims the officers trespassed and stole his property.
.....

Congine, a Marine veteran who served in Iraq in 2004, said he intends to keep flying the flag upside down.

"It is pretty bad when I go and fight a tyrannical government somewhere else," Congine said, "and then I come home to find it right here at my front door."

So the "people" were upset... well i wonder how upset they will be once their rights are trampled.

So now anything can be considered illegal if TPTB consider it a "disruption"?

Those cops and the county district attorney are fucking retards. Freedom is the ability to display whatever you want on your property even if other people disagree with it. If you could only display things everyone agrees with, then we wouldn't have rights. Free speech specifically protects thing that other people find offensive!
