Veteran Claims He Filed Complaint About Christian Flag

KING, N.C. (WGHP) - A war veteran who served in Afghanistan claims he initiated the complaint with the King city manager and filed complaints with the ACLU about the Christian Flag being flown at the Veterans Memorial in King.

The man, who wants to be referred to as "Steve," sent a statement to FOX8 claiming he contacted City Manager John Cater about the flag being flown at the memorial in Central Park in King.

"I initiated the complaint with the City Manager concerning the "Christian Flag" flown at the Veterans Memorial which is on city property and paid for with tax payer's money. This was done to bring attention to the fact that regardless the form government, it had no right to impose any type of religious belief upon its population," Steve said.

The man said after no response from the city of King, he anonymously filed complaints with American's United for Separation of Church and State and the ACLU.
