I'll tell you what is "disrespecting the flag"

[SHRED]

You're not suppose to wear it as clothing, on or sold in any form as a commercial product, and not shredded while attached to a truck.

It's all here the next time a Tea Party freak goes off:

1. And don't talk about respecting the flag if you still fly a confederate flag either.

Flying the battle flag of an enemy that directly engaged in war with the United States is way more disrespectful than using your freedom to protest.

6. Or if you fly the American flag upside down...

[NightWatcher]

10. Or that yellow one with the snake (Gadsden Flag)

That's the "I'm ready to take up arms against my country " flag

[63splitwindow]

13. If that day ever comes, let every one of those losers be right up front!

[SCVDem]

15. At least there is a reason for that.

Actual distress.

[63splitwindow]

17. Which the losers we are taliking about are abusing and thereby making suspect- like "Wolf!"

2. This post is useless without this:

11. AAAAAAAAAAAck!

MY EYES! MY EYES!!

3. So is this

This one is actually in the American Flag Code. You know a US Law, but this guy was never big on obeying Laws.

4. Wouldn't you think though, that Laura would have noticed they were standing on the flag and

would have said something? Ahh me..

7. Flag Code is not law.

My personal belief is that the flag is nothing more than pageantry cloth. It holds no true meaning other than that which people prescribe to it.

I wouldn't even really call it symbolism.

8. Loook at the Link

It is UNITED STATES CODE TITLE 36 CHAPTER 10.
OK the Flag code is Codified in the US Code.

16. It's still not law. US vs Eichman

[Initech]

5. The hypocrisy reeks doesn't it?

[classykaren]

9. Who is more patriotic and a good citizen one who pays their taxes obeys the law or does neither but

stands for the National Anthem?

12. thank you . thank you .

i cant stand the guys who drive around with the flag on their pickup trucks. distracting . they keep it all the time , isnt there something if you have a usa flag up all the time , at nite it needs a light to shine on it? again these folk bending things for what they want to hear .

[Loki]

18. Or a war based on a lie.

How about that one all you patriots? Ask the 4,000+ soldiers and hundreds of thousands of innocent people who have died. I have no illusions when you blatantly disrespect what this country is supposed to stand for by mouthing some patriotic words and saluting a piece of cloth, then bully and harass someone who expects our actions to match those words.
