David and April Hikoo Sykes, PvHhhm EDITORIAL COMMENT Anti-patriots Just now when American pride and patriotism is running high, a disturbing aspect of anti-patriotism has surfaced in Heppner. At 7:30 a.m. on Presidential Inauguaration Day, Tuesday, Jan. 20. Jim Launer and Bob Blue of the Heppner American Legion Post placed flags in all the holders along Main Street. Later that day at least one business person, who, along with most of the other business people has regularly paid a service fee to the post for their annual flag service, telephoned post officer Bob Blue to ask why there were no flags in the brackets at her business. She has now been told by Jim Launer that he definitely put flags in place there, but that those flags were stolen. Launer states 'There have been several flags stolen, several brackets jerked down and several flags ripped apart during the time I have worked here with the Legion Flag Service." As we move into February, one of the months when patriotic observations are noteworthy, is is sad to be reporting that not everyone in this community seems to respect the flag which symbolizes these United States of which most citizens are so proud.
