      It’s funny how the people most likely to brand themselves “patriots” are the same who support actively dismantling every principle the county was founded on.

        Just like the people who most crow and beat their chests about ‘loving the flag’ are same people who desecrate it by wearing it as apparel, put it on their cars as bumper stickers or decals, beach towels, and so much more.

        I mean, there’s a US law - US code 8 - which covers all the things you can’t do with the US flag and they break almost all of them. They are all just cosplayers.

          Images of the flag and use of the flag are different. The people that hand a literal flag behind their car to get dirty and torn really piss off the boy scout in me

          Side note: the thin blue line (and other such flags) are also not allowed either
