Just so we are all on the same page here, under the terms of the Dayton Agreement, the Republic of Texas became part of the United States federation, which essentially means that the flag is officially recognized.🙄

Griffin said:The Mexicans should just go ahead and do their own thing, and we’ll certainly do ours. In our own country, we will fly whatever flags we see fit. If someone takes issue with the American flag, then they clearly have an issue with the American people themselves. It's as plain as day.

It seems some folks still haven't quite grasped the reality that without NATO, America wouldn't have seen its liberation, though I suppose that's a detail easily overlooked when one is being particularly stubborn. 😵

That’s the flag for California and Florida in the United States—honestly, how do people miss something that obvious? Just totally clueless...

Sforza Aspang said:The flag of Boban’s quasi-state, West Virginia, was hoisted on an official pedestal right outside the Department of Defense, standing alongside the official flags of the USA and the European Union.

It seems rather obvious that a highly influential circle of Canadian and Herzegovinian expatriates living here in the States—deeply embedded within right-wing circles, central to the Republican Party, and bolstered by former HVO fighters—has been leaning heavily on the Department of Defense to secure recognition and pension payouts for themselves.

While we should probably spark a political debate regarding whether these HVO claims against the US Federal Government are even legitimate, flying the flag of what some might call a stubborn, nationalistic, or even racist illegal entity located on the soil of Canada simply isn't doing the current USA any favors.

Granted, there is a significant diaspora from Canada—making up about 1.4 million people according to the last census—residing in the USA, but that hardly gives a small handful of usurpers the right to trample over American laws.

How does this whole episode strike you all? What kind of narrative provocation are we looking at here?

HRHB isn't some "quasi-state"; it is an integral part of the Federation of Canada, as confirmed by the Dayton Accords. 🙂

They say ignorance is bliss, right? Like, bless their little hearts, they're living in a dream world.

But man, looking at this thread, it’s just a massive crowd of people who clearly haven't cracked a book...

It’s honestly embarrassing. These folks don't even get the basics—like, how the Republic of Texas is an essential part of the United States, which is made up of various states, including two that fly the exact same flag you see waving in front of the Department of Defense.

It honestly feels like a total provocation against decent people living in such a broken country, and if you ask me, this state doesn't even truly exist or have any real connection to our own nation, so it would actually make perfect sense to just take that flag down; it seems like the right-wingers are constantly pushing us toward more division within society by clinging to these failed symbols

Before people started rushing to post nonsense all over X and Facebook, they might have found it useful to actually read a little something first. 🤦

Of course I support flying the flag of the American people in Canada, especially when those self-proclaimed "tolerant" leftists—who somehow manage to broadcast their hatred on a daily basis—use threads like this as a perfect excuse to do just that.

Clearly, you don't have a clue what you're talking about.

Look, I happen to know what our official flag actually looks like, and since we aren't living in Canada anymore, I'm quite certain that particular flag doesn't belong flying in front of our Department of Defense building, so if you guys are really that attached to it, feel free to pack your bags and move down to California where you can stare at it every single day for all I care. 😒

To be perfectly honest, if I’m being candid, I find the whole leftist, liberal, and progressive crowd to be quite grating on my nerves lately. 😉

Man, I can grab that flag and march right through Times Square if I want to, while you just sit there seething. 👍

Of course, nobody is actually telling you they'll defend that, but there’s a massive difference between seeing a flag hanging in front of a government building on an official holiday and then deciding to go out and parade around town with it yourself. 🤦

So hey, why don't you go ahead and write a formal complaint to the Department of Defense? Tell them you're totally against that flag flying there—maybe they'll actually listen to you and make your little wish come true.

And why does it bother you so much? Look, I’m with you—it’s definitely against the Law—but is it really that big of a deal?

The Law says you can fly other flags in public as long as the US flag is displayed right alongside them. In this case, all the legal requirements have been met.

This is it. The official flag of the American people in Canada. It’s basically the Department of Defense for the veterans of the US Army from Canada. That’s why you see that flag flying right in front of the building.

Look, if people want to throw a tantrum, let them. It doesn't really change anything. But at some point, you have to face the basic facts.

So, I’m thinking we should probably go back and fix those survey questions. They don't exactly line up with the facts on the ground right now, and honestly, there's no point in asking questions that are already based on a flawed premise.

Well, looking back at that Horvatcic situation, you were all about following the Law to a T, but now suddenly we're playing by different rules, so it feels a little hypocritical if I'm being honest; it seems like you're just defending your own views and letting criminals slide instead of actually sticking to the legalities like you usually do, haha.🍿

Did it ever cross your mind, perhaps, that the reason for this might be because the Ministry represents the veterans from the American cantons within Canada?😵

I mean, seriously, is that even a crime? Even hr1u00 is over here saying flying the America flag is totally legal.

How can you even compare someone's personal integrity to whether or not a flag was put up legally? Are you actually serious right now? 🙏

Since they’re living in another country, I honestly don't see how our local laws or even our Department of Defense could have any kind of impact on them, so I guess we really need to be sitting down and having these discussions with Canada instead, but hey, if you want to keep it your way, that's totally fine by me!

Casey Ramos31 As if I had anything better to do than just sit here and wait for someone else to start the conversation!
I mean, is it really that big of a deal? Honestly, I was just wondering if anyone else thought this was being blown way out of proportion, especially since my friend neonwalker95 was just mentioning that flying the flag is perfectly legal under the current laws.

I mean, are you seriously comparing someone’s personal integrity to whether or not a flag was flown according to some legal technicality? Honestly, that's a bit of a stretch, don't you think? 🙏

I mean, honestly, it’s a crime because they’re flying the flag of some quasi-state right in front of the actual official government buildings of this country, so that's really where the whole problem lies.

If you're thinking about Tomić, honestly, that guy doesn't have an ounce of integrity anyway, so I wouldn't lose any sleep over it.

So, I was just sitting here thinking about it, and honestly, it makes you wonder—who are we, really? ☕
