There was no debate but Sen. Jeff Clemens, D-Lake Worth, took the opportunity for a shot at the House of Representatives — which abruptly adjourned on Tuesday, leaving the Senate to finish the legislative session. Clemens said he wanted government to use flags made by taxpayers. Source: Tallahassee Democrat

  1. So funny, we have tons of homes and families here in Lake Worth now bearing their country flags on their cars and homes, all over. Go to 910 N B St. and the owner their have their Guatemalan fly flying so high on a very tall flag pole, without a US flag above it, the Guatemalan flag by itself. I thought it was incorrect to fly another countries flag in our country unless the US flag is above it. If Guatemala is so wonderful why the hell are you here in the USA? I find this more offensive than this act by Scott.
