There are apparently a lot of Karens working at the Foster Public Library in Rhode Island. Reportedly, after a man complained on Facebook about the library flying a Pride flag during Pride Month but not flying an American flag on Independence Day, they all chipped in to order him a gift-wrapped trans flag. "Enjoy your gift from Foster Library," reads the gift tag.
Foster Public Library in Rhode Island reportedly mailed a pride flag to RI resident Michael Krawczyk to retaliate against his criticism of the library not flying the American flag on July 4 after flying the trans flag all June.

Taxes paid these librarians to harass a patron. pic.twitter.com/E2YUoWLhTH
That photo gets cut off, so here's the whole thing:
*Correction - they mailed him the transgender flag. I'm sure you could tell from the photo.

This is the Facebook post in a private FB group that allegedly triggered the Foster Public Library librarians to purchase and mail a trans flag to resident Michael Krawczyk. pic.twitter.com/8MEG2cXaaB

And the library even paid extra $ to gift wrap the trans flag.

People had plenty of suggestions for what to do with this gift.
They should burn it and mail the library the char

The library would sue for emotional distress.

He'd probably be arrested for a hate crime for burning the flag and for intimidation for mailing them the ashes.
I think it would be great to find out who paid for it. If they used town funds that's a legal issue

He needs to make a video of him burning it.

Childish. Library workers tend to be VERY woke.

Yes, they do.
Imagine being harassed by a library.
He really ought to make a video of himself burning it and post it to the same Facebook group that these librarians apparently police.
