Regarding flying enemy flags and other acts of societal disrespect…(taken from the reader comments section) Jordan wonders when common sense and the First Amendment took leave of each other?

I wonder that same thing from time to time, especially now when we’re in a war with Islamofacists and some misguided Americans are behaving in ways that can only be helpful to our enemies. It’s truly bizarre. I wish I could recall who said this, but it’s definitely right on…
“Freedom works best when you have the good sense to know when not to use it.”

Next, Jordan takes aim at those disrespectful drivers blasting you with their “systems” cranked up to deafening levels, playing obscene ghetto rap. That’s an unsafe distraction and it’s against the law. “California Vehicle Code Section 27007 says, “No driver of a vehicle shall operate, or permit the operation of, any sound amplification system which can be heard outside the vehicle from 50 or more feet when the vehicle is being operated upon a highway…”

Maybe a few calls from concerned citizens such as yourself to the Chief of Police in Chico might get some cites issued? You know the “squeaky wheel” theory… his number is 897-4950. And that would be the “using freedom” wisely part of this story.
