Was Quantico Town Mayor Kevin Brown wrong when he ignored the orders of his town council?
That question was batted about during a special meeting of the Quantico Town Council on June 16. Last year, the council voted and directed Brown to hang decorative banners with the U.S. Flag emblazoned on them onto light poles in the town.
To date, Brown has done everything but hang them up and has fought the council at every turn. The mayor said it is against the federal and state laws to use the flag for decoration or advertising purposes. In other words, hanging a U.S. Flag on a light post is OK. But hanging a banner with a U.S. Flag printed on it -- not OK.
