Recall sign at VFW insulting to veterans

The Durango Herald - 3/1/2018

Today, I saw a sign at the Veterans of Foreign Wars building expressing support of the Koch brothers' desire to recall an elected local county commissioner.

Later, it had been moved to a vehicle in the VFW parking lot.

The VFW is a nonprofit organization. It cannot display personal political views anywhere on its property, including the parking lot, if it is owned by the VFW.

Being a retired Marine and disabled veteran, it is insulting to myself and other veterans to have someone representing the VFW to be so arrogant as to feel the right to assume he can use this honorable organization to impose his personal political views as if it represents other veterans.

How dare you?
