The Cartoon Jihad - Local Front

Jay Tea over at Wizbang brings us this story from today's Boston Globe out of Stoughton, Massachusetts, concerning Town Manager Mark Stankiewicz's decision to fly the Danish flag on town property in a show of solidarity with Denmark, and the objections of some local folks afraid of doing anything, apparently, that might be construed as acting in defense of freedom. Oh, the horror.

Who would object to such a gesture, you ask?

The Stoughton No Place for Hate Committee.

I'm not making this up.

Jay's post pretty much says it all.

Perhaps they ought to reconsider their name to the Stoughton No Place For Balls Committee. I have a symbol all ready for them -- they can take that Danish flag they forced taken down, bleach out the red, and proudly wave their white flag for any and all to see.

And Mr. Stankiewicz? You might be too good for Stoughton. Consider yourself invited to move to New Hampshire. We know how to properly appreciate folks like you, and we're always welcoming refugees from Taxachusetts who come to their senses.


Nothing more to add there.
