House votes to ban Confederate flags on VA cemetery flagpoles

 


The House has voted to ban the display of the Confederate flag on flagpoles at Veterans Administration cemeteries.

The 265-159 vote would block descendants and others seeking to commemorate veterans of the Confederate States of America from flying the Confederate Battle Flag over mass graves, even on days that flag displays are permitted.

  1. MY PO meter is pegged. I see that our Congress vermin in the House have nothing better to do with their time, paid for by our tax dollars, than to tell us what kind of flag we may fly. FOAD! OK, from here on out, the ONLY time if ever I display the stars and stripes it will be upside down. I have zero respect for Congress. ZERO
