Safe and Secure

I took down my Rebel flag (which you can’t buy on ebay any more) and peeled the NRA sticker off the front door.

I disconnected my home alarm system and quit the candy-ass Neighborhood Watch.

I bought two Pakistani flags and put one at each corner of the front yard. Then I purchased the black flag of ISIS (which you can buy on ebay) and put it in the center of the yard.

Now the local police, sheriff, FBI, CIA, NSA, Homeland Security, Secret Service and other agencies are all watching the house 24/7.

I’ve never felt safer and I’m saving $69.95 a month.

I hope you are kidding, this was an opinion post from Freedomforce.com.   I wouldn't be adverse to putting up a rebel flag, they have that right as far as I'm concerned. However, what we do have in our yard (my friend in Texas calls it a cowboy): a soldier kneeling in front of a cross with a helmet on it and a rifle in his hands. A former marine was making these wooden forms and  we bought 2, one for our home, and one for our daughter to honor her husband, Chris Petersen, who died from health complications from his military time policing the Iraqi toxic dumps. Ours was in honor of my 2 uncles - Donald and Harold (Micky) Mickelsen -18 and 21 who died in WWII.  We also have a very high flag pole with a new Stars and Stripes flag on it. My husband had to remove the other one because of the edge becoming torn.

We are fortunate that right in Mazomanie we have an American Legion there. So we took that flag to them and they took care of the disposal. I was going to try to fix it, but they told me it was better to have them take care of it.

So I suspect that with these items we could still be in BIG trouble, and just might have to resort to noisy displays of gun fire.  Luckily, we have enough room around our home that we meet the distance requirements for shooting.

I thought you were just kidding that you really thought I'd do such a thing.     The first post was from an article written by someone else on an opinion page of Freedom force. So just thought you were kidding me about also doing it. My mistake.
