					<description><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;Thank you David,&lt;br&gt;
A year or so ago, around the 4th of July, my husband Tom and I wrote a letter to the editor asking that the person flying the Confederate battle flag near our home and the Orient cemetery be taken down, as it was dishonoring members of our community who graves where steps away.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My husband, who loves American history, reminded me that the flag shown in your photo is a flag of sedition and treason, of breaking and dissolving the United States, of tearing up the Constitution.  It is the battle flag of a slave-owning landed aristocracy who wanted to continue a feudal system (voting for property-owners only) we had thrown off in the Revolution.  My East Hampton great uncle fought and died in the Civil War, never to live past his 20s.  Duryea Zouaves, the 5th NY Regiment and the 11th NY “Ellsworth’s “Fire Zouaves,” recruited from the NYFD, fought valiantly and died in droves to preserve the Union and the Constitution.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;No firefighter should tolerate the display of this flag.&lt;/p&gt;]]></description>
