Bloomsburg, PA (September 22, 2017) -- Political activist Gene Stilp staged a confederate/Nazi flag burning in front of the Columbia County Courthouse. The flag burning was in protest of the decision by the Bloomsburg Fair Board to allow vendors to sell confederate flags at this year's fair.

Stilp said he created the hybrid flag—confederate stars and bars on one side and a Nazi swastika on the other—to make the point that both flags represent the same things: racism, bigotry, hate, and death. 

The 162nd Bloomsburg Fair runs from September 23 until September 30, 2017.
