“Once they are caught, they should be asked to go to each house, replace the flags, and apologize to the homeowners,” one person wrote. “You don’t have to make mom and dad buy a flag. If you commit a crime, you can take the time to repair or replace the damaged one.”
Another Facebook user countered: “Maybe they stole the flag because they were taught to hate America.”
