Unions, and the useful idiots who support them, mindlessly claim that unions work FOR the rights of the worker.
This story gives a clear indication of how big a lie that is. Did
management insist that the American flag is "offensive" and thus firefighters cannot display it? No. The
union did.
The UNION -
as is always the case, pushes to deny the rights of its members while pushing an America-hating agenda.

A Pennslyvania firefighter was suspended without pay for refusing to
remove an American flag sticker from his locker, Myfoxphilly.com
reported.
James Krapf of
Chester, Pa., violated a department policy that states personal items
can only be posted inside employee lockers when he stuck the flag on
the outside. According to Myfoxphilly.com, the firefighters' union
warned 11 others to remove personal items or face similar suspensions,
all without pay.
