UN UNwelcomed By Some Montanans
The United Nations is not…er…universally admired in the state of Montana. Though momentarily stalled in the Montana House, a bill to ban flying the U.N. flag on state property says more about the frustrated ire of some Montanans than any fear of international sanctions against our state. (Not to worry. There were 17 rock-solid, deep-dish, irrevocable sanctions against Iraq before the UN firmly and aggressively folded.) Still it’s interesting to fantasize about a few Big Sky cowboys spurring an international confrontation over a second blue flag on their own front lawn.
