If today California were to make the Democrat flag the flag for the State, replacing the bear flag, would that be right? Most Californians are Democrats it could be argued. But that is very un-American, it goes against the American motto of “Liberty and Justice for All”. It implies that California and its rights are just for Democrats.
If Governor Jerry Brown California were to instead try and make the National Socialist Battle Flag of Adolf Hitler’s Army the State Flag there would be even more outrage, and rightly so. It could be argued that California and Brown are quite Socialist, however the National Socialist military was the second most deadly army the US Army has ever faced. They shot and stabbed to death about 136,000 Americans on the battlefield.
