Butt-Nekkid. But Patriotic!

Oh, my. My-my-my. The things that happen in small towns.
Naked things.

Springtime is Silly Season, in the South.

some people get a rise about flag waving.

Dare I ask what he used for a flagpole? :smiley: :smiley:

Quite a story. I expected to see charges for intoxication. I guess this guy doesn’t need booze to shed his clothes.

I quote: Police asked Burks where the flags and the flag pole came from and he said, “A house down the street.”

So it seems he stole the flags and poles from a Marine no longer on active duty. He better hope for a long sentence otherwise that jarhead may wring his scrawny bearded neck! If you are going to steal flags, pick some Air Force dude - not one of the few and the proud. :smack:

I love the phrase “butt-naked.” It’s funnier than “buck-naked.” Are the hyphens necessary?

Cruel and unusual punishment.

That’s “butt-nekkid”.
Please get your vulgarisms correct; this is the SDMB, after all.

But it’s very hard to steal a USMC flag from a USAF retiree. The story wouldn’t make nearly as much sense if the guy was waving a USAF flag.

Was his ‘Little Burks’ standing at attention?

Let’s run it up the flagpole and see who salutes.

He goes on trial in July.

Just in time…
