Democrat Forces New York Firemen to Remove Flag Honoring 9/11 Heroes, Claiming It’s ‘Political’
Weak-willed New York Fire Department officials have forced an East Village ladder company to remove a flag honoring the squad’s six brothers killed on 9/11 because a left-wing Democrat politician claimed that the flag was “political” and not allowed on the premises of the company.
This is how Democrats see to tear down all our American heroes, folks.
Per the New York Post:
The shocking order came March 22 after a man claiming he was a staffer for Democratic Manhattan Councilwoman Carlina Rivera confronted firefighters at Ladder Co. 11, sources said.
The man pedaled up to the East 2nd Street firehouse on a bicycle and told firefighters he worked for Rivera and that the councilwoman’s office “complained” to the FDNY three days earlier about the flag – which features a red stripe in tribute of firefighters injured or killed in the line of duty.
He called it a “fascist symbol” and demanded to know why it was still up, sources said.
In a March 19 email to FDNY Intergovernmental Affairs Coordinator Madison Hernandez, Rivera staffer Lisander Rosario said the councilwoman’s office was contacted by the “constituent” twice about the ladder company’s flag and asked if it’s violating department rules.
“[FDNY staff] claimed it was to honor deceased firefighters, however, [the constituent] brought up that they could’ve used an FDNY flag rather than a politically charged symbol,” Rosario wrote.
“It is to both his and our understanding that private political symbols aren’t permitted to be displayed on public vehicles.”
“Can you confirm if there are any violating flags/symbols on Ladder 11?” added the email, which was obtained by The Post.
Immediately after that, FDNY Deputy Chief Joseph Schiralli demanded that the firemen remove the flag.
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
This is your Democrat Party, folks.
They hate our heroes, they hate our history, they hate our law enforcement and fire officials, and they hate the people of this country.
