From Breitbart: The CEO of Camping World responded to the barrage of lawsuits from city governments to stop him from flying giant American flags at his business locations, reiterating his stance that the flag is “never coming down.”
Local officials have been pressuring CEO Mark Lemonis for quite some time because of ordinances that prohibit him from flying the giant flags at his business locations, Fox 40 reported Friday.
“In April 2024, the Camping World location in San Joaquin County was forced to remove the flag for alleged safety reasons and a lack of permits,” the outlet said. “At the time, Lemonis told FOX40 that if it were a marketing flag on the pole, he might take it down while the business works out the permitting issues with the county, but the American flag stays, no matter what the county says.”
Multiple lawsuits have been filed in various states against Lemonis, over his gigantic American flags.
However, he is standing firm and doubling down. In a Fox News interview released last week, he vowed, “The flag? It’s never coming down.”
“Over the last several years, I’ve had a number of run-ins with local city officials and governments over my raising of the flag,” he said, adding, “I’ll never take it down. And the reason for that is it’s my love letter as an immigrant to this country who, quite frankly, was given a gift.”
