Reply #22: I don't have any opinion

at all. Isn't that sad? My parents were flower children, they have a photo of a protest where they burned the flag when they were young. When I was growing up, they used to be very in favor of being able to do stuff like that in protest so as a young kid I thought that was cool. My mother even made me a pair of pants that had a flag sewn into them and when I was in grade school I got sent home for wearing them! No kidding!

But, a couple of years ago, we started seeing all kinds of people wearing flag stuff and now my parents are dead set against it. They talk about how disrespectful it is for the people to wear flag hats and shirts and junk. It makes them SOOO angry to see people wearing the flag and disrespecting it that way.

So it is hard for me to know what to believe. Obviously even people like my parents change their views over time. It is much more complicated than it seems. I really haven't decided where I stand yet.
