It happens on any port with any flash drive that I insert. I do not
change the filesystem on flash drives that way I can use them wherever
so they are all some variant of vfat (depending on size). I always
unmount my filesystems so that is not an issue as well. The flash
drives mount the first time I insert them, it just mounts them read
only. When I unmount mount the flash drive and then remount it, it is
mounted read write. I am using the KDE interface which pops up on the
panel to mount and unmount the drives. I just want to get KDE to stop
mounting my flash drives read only the first time I insert the flash
drive.

In mc check out the chmod and the chown of the USB. Most likely you will need to issue (as root):
chown -R <yournameasuser>.group /dev/sdX

where X is the USB.
The OP didn't even say that the file system can handle uid/gid like chmod/chgrp, i.e. if it's a Linux file system like ext4. If it's FAT (or one of it's variants), then this won't be a solution.
First of all, try to find the reason for the failure. What file system type is it? NTFS, EXT3, EXT4, XFS, Reiserfs, ...? Is the file system mounted read-only at that time? What are the mount options (see /proc/self/mounts)?
Have a nice day, Berny
