A bit extreme but, hey....its America -- “I am not a Nazi. I am half-Jewish,” Wheeler told the network last Friday. “I hung the flag after watching President Obama last night. Obama usurped his Oath of Office. I wanted people to be shocked because I am offended.” Expectedly, Wheeler’s rather unorthodox protest quickly pushed the buttons of other residents in Norfolk’s Ghent neighborhood. “You have every right to fly that flag, you do,” neighbor Beth Brooker told Wheeler in a video posted to Facebook. “But I also think you need to understand how offensive it is.” “It’s offensive when one person tried to change the rule of law on his own and that’s what this states,” Brooker said. “I wanted to have a dialogue with him as to why he hung that hate flag out in the neighborhood,” she told a local CBS affiliate. “It’s amazing how somebody can have so much hate in them and feel it’s okay to express themselves. Granted, there’s freedom of speech. He can do and say whatever he wants to, but I think you need to have some respect for people in this country. And that flag represents nothing but hate.” rt/usa/208827-virginia-swastika-flag-immigration/
