Deputy Nerdlinger Jon Keller Defends Granny McTreason, Says People Who Care About American Flag Being Tossed On Ground Are “Bitter, Creepy Trolls”

This is WBZ’s Jon Keller:

He’s the news station’s hard hitting political analyst, who presents himself as unbiased but really he’s just a hack for the establishment. So it wasn’t exactly surprising to see this headline from him today:

This was in reference to our blog about Joann Flaminio, AKA Granny McTreason, a left wing activist who threw the American flag on the ground during the award’s ceremony for the first American to win the Boston Marathon wheelchair race in 26 years. During the National Anthem nonetheless.

A cursory look at her Facebook page shows that she’s an active “resister” who likely believes that any display of nationalism or patriotism is a bad thing, because she’s been brainwashed by the media into believing this is the same thing as white nationalism. For instance:

“I fucking hate the President.”

Nuff said.

According to Deputy Nerdlinger though, she’s a great person and the people who are criticizing her are “bitter, creepy trolls.”

If you’ve been living here for any length of time, you know that Bostonians can be a tough crowd – skeptical, cynical, quick to express displeasure. We’re not quite as bad as Philadelphia sports fans. But we’re close. And sometimes, it gets ridiculous. Like yesterday, when men’s wheelchair marathon winner Daniel Romanchuk draped an American flag over his shoulders as they played the national anthem at his award ceremony. This has become a common practice by US athletes at their moment of triumph in international competition. And even though it’s a violation of the US Flag Code, objections are rarely if ever heard.

Wait….what? He’s really comparing throwing the American flag on the ground to an athlete draping themselves with the American flag? He went that far out of his way to attempt to justify this? Bruh, draping yourself in the flag is what every Olympic athlete in the history of time has done after winning a medal.

Plus, the flag wasn’t even draped on Romanchuk. There was a woman behind him holding it, and Granny McTreason took it out of her hands and intentionally threw it on the ground. But according to Deputy Nerdlinger the flag was accidentally dropped on the floor in the process of handing Romanchuk his trophy:

But as the anthem played for Romanchuk yesterday, a race official stepped forward to hand him his trophy and place the victor’s wreath on his head, and in the process, the flag was removed and dropped on the floor, another flag code violation.

Except that’s not what happened at all. See the video above.

He continued….

In a normal world populated by normal people, this protocol breach would also be ignored. But we don’t live in that world. Instead, we include in our midst a significant number of knee-jerk whiners and folks with just too much time on their hands, many of whom seized the opportunity to accuse the marathon organizers of being unpatriotic. There’s an old saying that “no good deed goes unpunished.” The folks who run the marathon, many of them volunteers, shouldn’t have to suffer abuse from bitter, creepy trolls, but I guess that’s the pathetic world we live in today.

  1. You’re whining about people whining.
  2. Throwing the American flag on the ground isn’t a “good deed.”
  3. Being a volunteer doesn’t excuse it.
  4. Valid criticism isn’t “abuse.”
  5. You are a troll, and your face is the definition of creepy.

    Keller USED to give good commentary, but he fell off the wagon about three years ago and never regained his mojo.

    It’s obvious that he WANTS to regain it, but like most closeted Lefties, when under duress or strain, their true colors come out.

    And Keller’s true color is BLUE, with a lot of TDS in it.

    History lesson: July 18, 1863, the 54th Massachusetts Infantry made an assault on a Confederate fort. The unit was made up of freed slaves. The flag bearer was mortally wounded, and William H. Carney grabbed the flag pole before the flag hit the ground. In the course of the day, Carney was shot 3 times, and still did not allow the flag to touch the ground. A New York infantryman offered to carry the flag, but Carney refused, wanting to be sure of it being properly taken care of. Later in the day, Carney made it back to the remnants of the Massachusetts infantry. “Boys, the old flag never touched the ground!” For his heroism, William H. Carney was awarded the Medal of Honor.

    Jon Keller is a dishonest P.O.S. and his so called column today on charitable giving proves it. He fudges numbers and is dishonest with facts by saying Trump wont release tax returns because it will show that Trump is not charitable. He points out Obamas 2011 tax returns and says they are very charitsble but fails to mention that their 06 07 08 09 and 10 returns were less than 1 percent charitable giving. So much for honesty Jon. Trump gives alot of charity off the record because he gives as the Lord tells you to. Self expunding giving. That is too give without any expectatoon of return. Contrast that with mike bloomberg and you get self expanding giving. Exampke big press release and accolades about his giving to John Hopkins. Bloomberg gives strategically to enhance his own image much like the obamas. Hardly charitable giving jon.

      April 16, 2019 at 8:48 pm

      Agree totally. Obama gave 1 percent or less but 2011 was the year leading up to his reelection so he gave not so much for charity but more for the optics to make him look good for reelection.

    Clearly, those who do not see the significance of throwing the flag on the ground have never put on the uniform.

    Those who did wear the uniform, but still don’t see a problem with throwing the flag on the ground, are nonners who never deployed to a sandbox shithole and experienced being on the receiving end of Iraqi and/or Taliban party mix. Wearing the flag on your shoulder, and seeing Old Glory flying after coming back from a trip outside the wire means something, people.

    If you don’t know what that feels like, I don’t expect you to understand why seeing that flag thrown down like trash pisses people off.

    He’s equating hardly-relevant has-been Joanus Flamer with hard-working volunteers? What a DB. The video clearly shows others on stage, and she had the material to hand to the young man, and deliberately took the flag away from the one holding it (and doing NOTHING ELSE but holding it) to deliberately set it aside like a used towel. There was no reason for her to even touch it. I’m glad I don’t watch this virtue-signaling lib whiner, his face looks invitingly punchable. More so now that he’s shown his true colors. Which are decidedly NOT Red, White and Blue. Shame on a “media personality” for defending her actions.

    Bitter, creepy trolls? That’s what he considers the people who died to protect that flag and what it stands for. People have held that flag in battle while being shot and continued to hold that flag in the air, as their life was slipping away. And this woman tossed it aside during the national anthem like it was shit. Please do not call people who find this upsetting creepy. How does that word even apply here?

    There they were in the kitchen, my dad and his friends, drinking whiskey and watching the ball game. They were crying because they just heard Martin Luther King was dead. They were also crying because there was actually no ball game that day I just made the whole thing up. In fact When someone called me and asked me what ball game was on that day I repeatedly hung up the phone on them because I love communists, and I love to lie. Like that time I interviewed Mahty, and he assured me the Grand Prix money was “there”. It was all “there”. When it wasn’t “there” I was like oh well never knew Mahty to lie. He must have been mistaken on where “there” was. Maybe the Cayman Islands. We’ll never know. I I do know that Healy and Mahty would never lie to us, and neither would I.
