County pushing flag case

Minidoka County Prosecutor Nikki Cannon wants to take on the Supremes, First Amendment. Charging teacher who stomped on the stars and bars with violating a 1981 Idaho statute. Now-former teacher Dan Luker has hired Keith Roark, chairman of Idaho Dems, for his defense. Luker stomped the flag after a gym teacher trashed a Mexican flag earlier in the day.

Stars and Bars?

Why would Minidoka County care about stomping a Confederate flag?

I thought Luker stomped on the Stars and Stripes…

I stand corrected… It should read stars and stripes… I assume Mini would not be as concerned about a Confederate flag… though it would probably be made of a similar fabric and colors and perhaps made in the same Chinese factory.
