They knowingly hired a cop that had national coverage for killing a black child. There was no lack in oversight, background checks were made, this was all done intentionally. There is no personal conflicts, from what i can tell this is right in line with the towns motive. They're just sorry they got caught and are now trying save face.

Small white-conservative racist town gets caught with their pants down for hiring a racist cop renowned for killing a black child that sparked protests through the country and now is back peddling to save face. They're not sorry, they knew exactly what they were doing by hiring this guy. They're just sorry they got caught.

A flag should represent the present and stand the test of time, even a future that is uncertain. Things are good now but that doesn't mean they always will be and there should always be an easily identifiable symbol that can unite people. There's a reason many European flags have gone unchanged for 400+ years yet here we are discussing a redesign for a flag that is barely over 100 years old. I'm not saying the new PA has to be designed like a European flag but they've stood the test of time.

A flag of importance should be easily replicated by anyone by hand without any need of assisted tooling or machines. European flags have this down to a science. 2 or 3 colors, basic shapes (rectangles), easily identifiable.

During hard times the current flag would essentially be impossible to recreate by hand and would most likely end up being flown as a plain blue sheet. maybe that can be your starting point.
