Breitbart: A World War II veteran suffered an injury while defending his home’s American flag from assailants who pushed him to the ground.
Howard Banks heard a noise outside his home and went out to investigate. Banks is legally blind. With his limited vision, he observed someone taking down the American flag flying outside his Kaufman, Texas, home, CBSDFW reported. The incident occurred on July 11, shortly before his 92nd birthday.
Because of prior acts of vandalism, Banks decided to defend his flag. Previous vandals shredded his American and Marine Corps colors.
“They could see me. I couldn’t see them,” Banks told the CBS affiliate. “I turned and looked in the other direction, and about then – ‘wham!’ They knocked me down.”
There is a special place in HELL for these thugs. Thank you for your service Mr. Banks and may God bless you.
A shotgun is better for someone with limited vision.
It’s too bad someone couldn’t electrify his flagpole so that shit wouldn’t happen again…at least more than once! Cook the scumsucking maggots.
I had to come to my elderly fathers defense one time. Also a WWII vet. That was a very satisfying moment. There’s got to be some patriots around there that are willing to set a trap for these Dirt Bags.
Snap their necks.
Sprinkle some roofing nails below the flagpole, make sure they’ve been dipped in sh#t. See how they like that hotfoot.
Neighbors could set up a time to raise and lower the flag. Then turn on the electricity, sooner or later some thug will be dancing with the voltage.
As a former Marine, I salute this gentleman for his honor, courage, and bravery,
Semper Fi!
VFW members, no doubt…
