A woman from Oxfordshire posted a photo of the flag hoisted up by the van on Facebook this morning, saying today is the third day she has seen it up.An offensive flag? I wonder what it it? Skull and crossbones? Swastika? ISIS?
Well....no.
The 26-year-old woman, who has asked not to be named, said she reported the van to police at Bicester Police station but they cannot take it down.
She said: "They've spoken to him and explained the meaning behind the flag but he's expressed it was a gift from a friend in the southern states so for that reason they're powerless to get it taken down because no crime is officially being committed but I can speak to the council about it."What is it about modern life that makes people think they have the right to demand others do as they say simply because they are 'offended'..?

I have a couple of these flags at home and being somewhat of a scholar of the 'civil' war, I understand what they mean. If he was a bit closer, I'd pop down for a burger and a chat
Our PC culture has empowered every whingy whiny nutter with a gripe. Before they were laughed off and ignored. Now they are supported by the full force of the law and they are loving it.
Blimey! Makes you wonder what would happen if the Duke boys parked the General Lee
there for a day!

I suspect the publicity's done him no harm at all!

Working as, I suspect, intended...
