Did This City Really Ban People From Putting Flags Near the Graves of Vets?....
I am so tired of people and their little power trips....
“The ordinance, which was passed last week, includes a host of regulations concerning what can be placed around city graves. Teddy bears and statues must be removed 21 days after the funeral. Mourners cannot place flowers near a gravesite unless they’re in a vase,” the report adds.
Okay, wait. We have two questions:
What made council members think this was a good idea?
How did they intend to enforce it?
The Cemetery Board pitched the idea to the City Council last week and, apparently, nobody thought that regulating the small comfort of putting flowers or a flag on a grave would, you know, really, really upset some people.
