When Hurricane Harvey hit Texas flooding many areas and stranding Texans, one police officer made headlines with a blurry photo. Now, liberals are… as you guessed it… enraged.
A police officer named Jack McCarty in Aransas Pass, Texas, just outside Corpus Christi, risked his life during the flood to save an American flag. A photo captured the moments, showing McCarty wearing a yellow raincoat, riding a bicycle, with the flag raised high above his head.

The photo was posted on the Aransas Pass Police Department’s official Facebook page and many flocked to the posting to leave comments of support and pride.
“While some dishonor and desecrate her, APPD Ofc. Jack McCarty will stop at nothing to honor and save her,” the caption on the post read.
Many conservatives made remarks about how proud they were to see this photo. It’s a beautiful image and should be hung in a museum somewhere, but more than that, it represents hope and triumph. The courage of the American spirit.

“This is what pride in your country looks like. A lot more of this kind of spirit is needed,” a user named Chris Weber wrote.
User Davis Millush commented on what it truly means to protect and serve. “Please give my sincerest respects to Officer McCarty. His decision to respect our flag in those conditions says more about his character than any words on a performance evaluation. We, as Americans, are bessed to have men and women like Officer McCarty serving and protecting our families. Our prayers are with you for your safety in the storm’s aftermath.”
However, the liberal naysayers could not see the beauty, pride, or strength in the photo and instead expressed only anger.
“So a piece of cloth is more important than the stranded elderly and children? I see his priorities… a shame,” Justin Skinner wrote.

Geoff Goldwater commented on the priorities of the officer as well saying, “I think that being in this time of need for your residents amongst all the other Texans in need, it’s quite shameful for you to politicize a photo. SMH.”
Anyone in their right mind can see what this photo stands for, but the liberal agenda is to always attack and tear down anything patriotic. You wonder… do they even like their own country?
At any rate, we salute this officer, and we stand proudly and salute the flag of the United States of America.
