Default Stolen Flags; in honor of Flag Day??

Last night while I was enjoying the evening and sipping adult beverages with my friends outside Urban Flats, some miscreant stole the 2 American Flags fixed to my golf cart.

I guess they were stolen in honor of Flag Day. This isn't the way I remember it being celebrated, but then I'm not always up on the new traditions.

Maybe I was being forced to redistribute the wealth?

Kind of wish I spotted the creep doing it; it sure would've livened up my evening a little bit; and I'm guessing his.

Obviously not something a fellow senior would do but without locked entry gates it is not stop able. Help the economy buy a new flag

Thanks P. I'm trying to have a sense of humor about it because the cost of the flags won't break me, but it's just galling.

It's the first time in 2 years of living in TV that I've been a victim of a crime, and now the "bubble" is smudged.

Hide the women and children........ TEA Party people are here. Lighten up, Maybe they were just having a good day?????

BTW Taking the flags off your cart is despicable.
