EXCUSE ME??? The American Broadcasting Channel doesn't want their employees to wear American flag pins because it might offend a minority of their audience???

I'm sorry Cerek, but what idiot patriotic broadcasting channel lets its employees wear American Flag pins??? What's the supposed reason for that? Because Americans feel proud for their country? You got to be kidding me!

I'm not trying to offend you or attack you here, but I think Americans are taking it one step too far by doing these type of things... even if it's just about a pin. American Patriotism is closer to fanaticism if you'd ask me.
