Anthony Giordano, community activist and Democratic candidate for City Council, remembers when his friend, Joe Thomas Jr., had his American flag stolen right off the front of his property on Chevalin Street on Flag Day of June 14, 2005.
This Sunday, (June 14), Flag Day, Anthony Giordano will put American flags on Chevalin Street. “We have a right to put out the American flag out to demonstrate our patriotism! No one has the right to take away this right by stealing – this is an issue of public safety!â€
From 6:00 AM to 9:00 PM (15 hours), Anthony Giordano will put American flags on Chevalin Street. Mr. Giordano feels the issue is about public safety and patriotism.
History—Flag Day is celebrated on June 14 in memory of the day in 1777 when the Continental Congress adopted the stars and stripes as the official flag of the United States.
Anthony Giordano will be on Chevalin Street on June 14 to demonstrate that we have the right to put out American flags and they should not be stolen by those who are ignorant about our history and rights.
