Flying Confederate Flag Deemed a ‘Hate-Related’ Offence by British Police

 COLUMBIA, SC - JUNE 23: The Confederate flag is seen flying on the Capitol grounds a day after South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley announced that she will call for the Confederate flag to be removed on June 23, 2015 in Columbia, South Carolina. Debate over the flag flying on the …

Police officers in Norwich, England have recorded a “hate-related public order offence” against a local resident who flew the Confederate flag to mark the anniversary of the death of Civil War General Stonewall Jackson.

Last week, Emily Robinson, a 34-year-old teacher — who recently moved back to the small English city from the left-progressive enclave of Brighton — made a complaint to the police about the house flying the Confederate flag.

The house reportedly has a longstanding tradition of flying different world flags on days associated with them, with a note posted explaining the history of the flag for the public to read.

    The headline misspelled 'offense'.

    The first paragraph has an unnecessary -- and incoherent -- 'recorded' as well as a second misspelled 'offense'.

    As we learned in first-grade, grammar has five queries -- who, what, where, when, how.
    The first and second paragraphs incoherently use the query 'who'.

    Sheesh.
    If the brits cannot correctly use the basics of grammar, no wonder the mohammadans are having a field day.
    Cripes.
