That is old school stuff.

So, if I burn one of the Obama flags, is that freedom of speech or a hate crime?

They need to either
1) Change the laws or 2) Enforce them. Of course it's all about CHANGE, isn't it? |
lol @ capnhowdy

Only Fucktards would support changing the flag to put Obama's face on it. It is a violation of the National Flag Act. And individuals could be in trouble for doing it.
Ok, not a total fucktard, but it is a fucktarded thought that it is ok to do it. |
I have a lot of friends who died fighting for the freedoms of the people those colors represent.
Nuff said on my part. No need to rant. |
Yea, me too. But there are a lot of dumb asses out there who will never understand that, as they eek out a living throwing stones at those who do. One of the things that makes this country great I guess. Isn't it grand?

I'm not a big flag waver myself, but I know the frigging protocol for displaying and respecting the flag. If I were to display it, you can be damn sure I'd take it down at sunset, fold it like I was taught, and stow it until reveille.
It really gets up my nose when some of my sanctimonious, flag waving neighbors leave the flag up 24/7/ 365, unilluminated, and let it get into tatters, and come off all "I'm patriotic and you aren't." Fuck. YOU. I know how to treat our flag asswipe, and it isn't some jingoistic happy dance. You should have to pass a test and get a permit to display our flag if you ask me. Too many douchebags thinking they are patriots who haven't got a clue. I have one neighbor, (guess what branch of the service he was in) who takes his flag down every night at sunset and puts it up every morning. He's the only only one in this damn town who has a clue. He' also a good egg. need a hint? (Semper Fi) |
I would have known w/o the hint.
I remember a discussion we had a few yrs ago on flag etiquette. Big responsibility if you go by the book, to say the least. Wish I could find the thread right quick. Lots of folks use the Flag-as opposed-to-banner angle. This topic can lead to some ...well, you know. |
Capn, what was your first pic? I'm only getting a broken link.
I don't see the flag the same way you do, but I don't publicly disrespect it either because I know many people who see it your way. To me, the change in the way the flag is perceived corresponds with our shift from republic to empire. I see it used cynically to keep people in line for war-mongers. So as a symbol it means different things to different people because as a symbol it has been mis-used by different groups. I also note that you speak of what the colors represent, rather than just the colors, I respect that as it speaks to true patriotism not jingoism. |

Sorry to post writing in a picture thread, but I am regularly baffled by the store some Americans set by their flag. It's a piece of material. It's a symbol, NOT the country itself.
Griff has already posted a picture to show that using the flag for political means is pretty much as old as the flag itself. I read something recently about the way that we (as a nation) hold the monarchy in the same esteem as the Americans hold their flag. Not everyone thinks the same about them, the armed forces are more likely to be respectful of them, and at the end of the day they only have the same meaning that people assign to them. I suppose ours cost us more money, but bring in more tourism. On the plus side, yours can be folded away into a box - and still come out again the next day! |
Good points SG.

Do I have to be the bad guy here...?
Oh. Okay. WT, welcome and all, but we kinda like proper capitals here. That said, your post raised a smile. |
Who is we?
|
Oh come now Flint, haven't we had enough shitstorming for one day? FTR, I prefer proper capitalization myself. Sundae was talking about the two of us.
|
That's harassment, and I don't have to take it.
|
Oh, you'll take it and like it.
|
Sorry I don't usually use proper capitals or grammar on forums cause I'm just typing too fast for all that nonsense but since it was requested of me I'm more than happy to oblige....
*sneaks into her grammar dictionary...wow this thing is dusty* |
