A North Carolina man who has been flying a Nazi flag outside his home says he's not a racist. He just likes flags.

Kings Mountain resident John Brown told local NBC station WCNC that he plans to take down the swastika, but said he doesn't think the flag is offensive and part of the reason he's removing it is that the flag is too worn out and no longer fit to fly.

Some neighbors told WCNC that Brown is just a war buff who watches World War II flicks and likes to listen to German music from the era.

Others, however, are offended by the Nazi symbol of hate flying high in their neighborhood.

Just likes flags, eh? What d'ya suppose would happen if someone gave him one of these?

1. His property.

He should be able to fly whatever flag he wants.

2. He's in North Carolina

Maybe he just likes flags, but a lot of people in the South "just like guns," too.

He probably found a very opportune moment to find that his Nazi flag was too worn out to fly.

Taking it down was surely cheaper than the potential increase in his life insurance premiums.

3. Kings Mountain is where many of he Greensboro Nazi KKK shooters lived

1979 at a housing authority complex.

Kings Mountain is infested with Nazi KKK Racist nutters.

This does not surprise me at all.

Just likes flags my ass.

4. And some say wearing white sheets and hoods is just a fashion statement
