What is their reasoning for not allowing a large flag? If it's because the paperwork had a smaller size - why not edit it? Going to jail someone over that amount? And over our flag?

Camping Company CEO Risks Jail For Flying U.S. Flag Over Store

Marcus Lemonis is prepared to go to jail over an American flag his company is flying over one of his stores.

"We have flown this flag for a long time," Lemonis said. "As I told the city…it's not coming down under any circumstance."

Lemonis is chief operating officer of Gander RV. He's been flying a huge flag -- 40 feet by 80 feet, or 3,200 square feet, the size of a fairly large house -- over a store in Statesville, N.C.

But city officials say the flag is too big. They filed a lawsuit May 7 against Holiday Kamper Co. -– which is the parent company of the store formerly known as Camping World. If Lemonis doesn't take action within 30 days, he could be jailed.

Statesville City Attorney Leah Messick said in the filing that the company applied for a permit to fly a 40 foot by 25 foot flag but instead raised the bigger one. "In June, 2018, Gander RV (formerly known as Camping World) filed an application with the Statesville Planning Department to display a 40x25-foot flag on its property. The permit was approved, but when the flag was raised two months later, it was determined the company was flying a 40x80-foot flag, which is prohibited by City ordinance," the filing says.
