[Conservative World] The City of Statesville, North Carolina has filed a lawsuit seeking an injunction to require Gander RV in Statesville, NC to take down their American Flag. They are imposing a $50/day fine retroactive to 10/15/18. Many cities like Statesville have requested that Camping World and Gander Outdoors take down their American Flags--too large they say.
Camping World CEO Marcus Lemonis says it's more than just a flag--"It's about our Veterans, Military, and the men and women that have sacrificed for this great country. They are the reason we fly the flag and they are the reason we will NOT take it down!"
There are always rules that a resident doesn't like but the law is the law and this owner should follow his city's codes. It's great to market and call attention to your business. Using an American Flag and "patriotism" to do so is not a good enough reason to break Statesville's laws. That city is fining him, big time.
