I can't believe this. a gunbroker.com seller with 428 feed backs is using our Flag as a rag, upon which he has placed an item for sale. I wrote to him and told him how wrong, disrespectful, and degrading that is. He accused ME of being an Obama supporter! Here's the listing if anyone else is as pissed off about this as I am.


SKB 100 20 ga. sk/sk choked 23/4 or 3in 28"VR 20ga
Auction # 124692967

It's a nice shotgun being sold by an jerk

  An interesting point, muttburger.
  
  I find his use of the flag sad and I would not buy anything from him, though cannot seem to be offended by it.
  
  Upon inspection, it appears to be a cheap printed flag, probably made in China. In many ways this particular flag disrespects itself.
  
  Lastly, a made in Japan shotgun that bears the name 'Ithaca' is more offensive to me than is his treatment of a painted piece of cloth.
  
  Welcome, BTW, not trying to make light of your concerns, it is just that there was so much more to the picture you linked that jumped out at me.

  E-mail the link to the auction operators and ask that they remove it.
