St. Louis antique store owner Cherri Elder formed positive relationships with police patrolling in the area, so she decided to display an American flag containing a thin blue line — a symbol for police sacrifice — in front of Elder’s Antiques. But the gesture didn’t go over well with everybody. “People came by, they would cuss at you, they would harass you,” Elder told KMOV-TV, “they would harass the customers.” Elder told the station she took down the thin blue line flag to avoid continued trouble. “I thought things were getting better,” she told KMOV. “But apparently it’s not.” A month after taking down the thin blue line flag — which is now displayed inside her 32-year-old store — Elder told the station she found a large handwritten sign on the front window of Elder’s Antiques that read: “Pig supporters not welcome. Flag goes down or you go down.” On the right bottom corner of the sign was a hammer and sickle — presumably standing for communism and the former Soviet Union — along with the letters “MLM,” which KMOV said often stands for Marxism-Leninism- Maoism. A window at Delmay Ltd. Antiques — one of Elder’s neighbors a few doors down — is now boarded up. Why? Three individuals were seen on surveillance video kicking in the window and running off, KMOV reported. “My business, my friends are being targeted,” Elder told KMOV. While Elder added to the station that she has “every right to fly a flag,” she said she doesn’t think she’ll be putting it back on display. But whatever Elder decides, she told KMOV that these actions must “stop before somebody gets hurt” and that she desires a return “to some kind of normalcy where people have respect for one another.”

Could be a phony hate crime. Sounds like fake news, yella journalism. The note with the commie logo is too over the top to be real. And it's from Glen Beck's fake tears website, TheBlaze. Yella Journalism
The penmanship on that sign is so neat it looks like the work of a female. The photo shows homeboys kicking in that window,but no home boy I have ever seen could print that neatly. Most struggle to write their names.
In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
No shortage of dykes in hoods at any typical SJW commiefest.
The note with the commie logo is too over the top to be real. " Does seem rather contrived . Si vis pacem, para bellum Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God. Never Pick A Fight With An Old Man He Will Just Shoot You He Can't Afford To Get Hurt "If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die I want to go where they went." (Will Rogers)
