It’s a Rag’: Nebraska State Senator Likens American Flag to Nazi Swastika Login/Join

A Nebraska state lawmaker has come under fire for calling the American flag “a rag” and comparing it to a Nazi Swastika.

Senator Ernie Chambers made the comments on the floor of the legislature on Feb. 19, when responding to a state bill (pdf) that would update school civics requirements to ensure that students “become competent, responsible, patriotic, and civil citizens.”

I don’t come here for this rag every day, and it’s a rag. That’s all it is to me,” Chambers said when talking about the American flag.

“When you show a way to persuade Jews to sanctify and worship the swastika when you show me that I’ll come up here and stand while you all hypocritically pretend that rag is something that it definitely is not.”

Several state senators have reacted to Chambers’s remarks. Senator Julie Slama, who introduced the bill, said, “Sen. Chambers’ comments not only degrade a symbol of ultimate sacrifice for our nation, but they also minimize the horrors and millions of lives lost in the Holocaust,” reported Washington Examiner.

Ernie Chambers is a long-term asshole that blacks in Omaha keep sending to the state legislature. He's a radical of known cloth. Ignore him; we did. All hat and no cattle.

He's sort of a pet - not housebroken. Pisses on the carpet, craps on the porch, drinks out of the toilet. We stopped feeding him, but just can't seem to get rid of him. Free to a home - doesn't have to be good.

I'm assuming that he is a Democrat.

That's satire by the way. Wink

Uncle Remus has been a pain in the ass since the 60’s. Blacks keep electing him & whites tune him out as soon as his anti American & filthy racist mouth opens.

Ernie Chambers is essentially a 60s, Black Panther-type radical (remember, Malcolm X was from Omaha). He was in fact, first elected to the Nebraska state legislature in...I believe, 1968. He represents the original N side of Omaha ghetto portion of the city, although he himself long ago moved away from the area he represents (like a lot of politicians).

Nebraska has term limits. When he times out, he sits out the requisite amount of time, runs, and is elected again. He has said and done many things to raise the ire of the vast majority of Nebraskans, but there’s little that can be done.

Only in America.

Frankly, I think it's a good thing that he can say that shit. I'd like to hear it from assholes like him, so I know exactly who they are.

Let these idiots ignore that in other countries they'd be imprisoned or shot for such sentiment.

Go ahead and spew that nonsense, dickwad, and you're welcome to the company that gathers around you.

That shit right there, might be in itself a pinnacle of privilege that surpasses the "white privilege" I'm sure nimrod rails against.

Only in America.

It seems Ernie has been unhappy for a very long time, his choice. I take some pleasure in his misery.

Yeah. He is a pile. Supposedly it was some of his Black Panther buddies that set off a bomb that killed an OPD Officer in the late 60’s-early 70’s. Right now he is trying to pass a state statute to make it illegal to have school resource officers. The only time cops can be at a school is for a call.

He tried to sue God a couple years ago if that tells you anything.

He's no different from any of the other scumbags, Sharpton, Jackson, Lewis, Johnson or innumerable other socialists who are elected by the ignorant voters. He just has a virtually invisible venue, Nebraska.
