South Dakota Custodian Fired for Defending Flag By Dan Collins Feb. 5, 2013 kikn.com After seeing the American flag being disrespected several times, Cesar Zakahi finally had enough. The Stanley County School District custodian posted a picture of proof on his Facebook page. Then, he claims, was fired. Cesar claimed that a fellow female janitor had been throwing the flag on a shelf in the corner of the school’s boiler room for several months. He claims he had complained many times to the school’s superintendent about the flag’s treatment and decided to take matters into his own hands. The short video, above, was posted on Cesar’s Facebook page. Flags are suppose to be folded and neatly stored when not flying proud. The video shows the American flag along with the South Dakota flag crumpled up in the schools boiler room. Superintendent Don Hotalling has confirmed with the Argus Leader that Zakahi is no longer employed with the school district and says the firing has nothing to do with the video. He refuses to discuss the matter further. When all of the dust settles as to who did what and the reasons for the termination surface, there is still the matter of our American flag shamefully crumpled in a dirty boiler room. How do you suppose a veteran would feel about seeing this? I have a feeling we haven’t heard the last of this story. Source: Cesar Zakahi* Facebook page, Associated Press* Supt.
