Educate the citizen that the flag is for the fallen and not whatever she thought it was

This flag in no way is offensive to anyone, how in the world could it be? Please let them put it back up.

The flag should fly. It represents the sacrifices of our beloved firefighters. The mayor can be replaced. The flag stands.

I lived in Newton for over 50 years and never embarrassed to say so till now. These are the people on the front line- You applaud doctors and nurses For the Covid fight with these men and women fight every day and they deserve to be honored

“It was stated that a citizen contacted her (the Mayor’s) office saying the flag was offensive.”
The flag is the Firefighter’s Memorial Flag. ARE YOU KIDDING ME??!! As someone who was born and raised in Newton, I’m EMBARRASSED that one complaint is cause enough to take down a flag that represents courage, honor, and patriotism. Not to mention laying down their lives to save others. I’M OFFENDED. Now, this should be just cause to reinstate the memorial flag, right? Do the right thing and put that memorial flag back up. We’re talking about firefighters here, not police. This has NOTHING to do with current events.

I feel that they should be able to hang that Flag at their station because it is Symbolic and everyone knows that!!! Any normal person would know that the Flag is not offensive!!! This has to stop now!!! “ALL LIVES MATTER”
