I saw this story on WGAL last night and was wondering, So what?
It was about a general store in Lancaster County, Good's Store, that was catching heat because it did not sell American flags. The store is owned by members of the Anabaptist faith, which preaches non-violence and loving your enemies.
So, as part of that belief, the faith doesn't believe in nationalism. That's their right.
But some people were upset that the store doesn't sell flags.
WGAL reported that "a number of viewers have contacted News 8" about it. The story quoted one woman, Mary Elen Rice of Holtwood, saying the store's owners should sell flags no matter what they believe.
That's ridiculous.
And this is a ridiculous story.
Lots of stores do not sell American flags. So what?
