A disabled Vietnam War hero just scored a major victory against liberal government overreach in New York. Leonard Amicola fought back when his Democrat-controlled village tried to silence his support for President Trump. The 67-year-old veteran refused to back down when officials demanded he remove his “Trump Is My President” flag.
Amicola has lived in Croton-on-Hudson for 67 years and served his country with honor in Vietnam. He suffers from disabilities caused by Agent Orange exposure during his military service. Yet this American patriot was being harassed by his own local government for exercising his constitutional rights.
The veteran’s Trump flag was originally displayed on a proper flagpole on his own property. But liberal neighbors actually stole his flag right off the pole in the middle of the night. So Amicola hung it between two trees to keep the flag thieves from stealing it again.
Village officials claimed their attack on free speech was just “content-neutral code enforcement.” But everyone knows this was really about silencing conservative voices in a Democrat stronghold. The same liberals who scream about democracy were trying to crush one man’s right to political expression.
Amicola faced serious harassment from Trump-hating neighbors who threw rocks at his flag. He received threats against himself and his property for simply supporting the president. This is the ugly face of liberal tolerance in action.
The veteran’s courage comes from his family history of fighting tyranny. His father fled fascist Italy under Mussolini’s dictatorship to find freedom in America. Now his son was fighting the same kind of government oppression right here at home.
After facing mounting pressure and likely legal costs, the village finally backed down. Local officials admitted they couldn’t handle the backlash from patriots across America who supported Amicola’s fight. Sometimes the good guys actually win against the swamp.
This victory proves that standing up to liberal bullies works when you refuse to surrender. One disabled veteran showed that the Constitution still means something in America. Every patriot should follow Leonard Amicola’s example and never give up the fight for our freedoms.
