The radical left's hatred for America was on full display Thursday when an unhinged LGBTQ activist tried to physically rip down the United States flag at the Stonewall National Monument in New York City, while an angry mob of protesters chanted "Burn the American flag!"
The shocking scene unfolded as city officials returned a Pride flag to the monument that had been properly removed earlier this week following President Trump's executive order restoring respect for our nation's flag. Instead of peaceful protest, these leftist extremists chose to attack the very symbol of the freedoms they claim to defend.
"The way the whole thing went down was pretty dramatic," one witness told reporters. "Gays have a sense of flair and drama." But this wasn't just theatrical flair—this was a direct assault on American patriotism by radicals who apparently believe their political agenda trumps respect for our flag.
Trump's Common-Sense Flag Policy Under Attack
The incident stems from President Trump's recent executive action ensuring that government buildings properly prioritize the American flag over political symbols. The Pride flag was removed from the Stonewall monument on Tuesday as part of this nationwide effort to restore dignity to federal properties.
Rather than accepting this reasonable policy with grace, the LGBTQ activist community responded with typical leftist rage—literally trying to destroy Old Glory while chanting violent rhetoric about burning our flag. The crowd also chanted "Take it down!" directed at the American flag that represents the very nation that protects their right to protest.
This is what we're dealing with, Patriots—a radical left so consumed with their political grievances that they'll attack the American flag itself rather than show basic respect for our country.
While President Trump works to restore American values and proper respect for our national symbols, the far-left continues to show their true colors. When you hate America this much, maybe it's time to ask yourself who the real extremists are.
How long will we tolerate anti-American radicals who think their political agenda justifies attacking the flag that countless heroes died defending?
