Vito Congine Jr. fought in Iraq as a Marine in 2004 because as we were constantly reminded by our former president, “they hate us for our freedoms.”

But now the 46-year-old Wisconsin resident is learning the Iraqis are not the only ones who hate us for our freedoms.

The people who run the village of Crivitz do as well.

Congine had been flying the American flag upside in front of his restaurant since last June to protest against village officials for not granting him a liquor license. Flying the American flag upside down has long been an accepted form of distress.

Congine’s distress is that he is headed for bankruptcy after spending nearly $200,000 to buy and remodel a downtown building for an Italian supper club.

His protest had gone ignored until the Fourth of July when four cops stepped onto his property and removed the flag – under the advice of Marinette County District Attorney Allen Brey, who obviously doesn’t specialize in First Amendment law.
