What are the honorable uses of the flag?

[cynatnite]

With permission from tk2kewl I wanted to know what would be deemed honorable.

1. Shoving the pole it's attached to

...wait... I forgot the question...

[VOX]

3. LMAO!!!

BW, you are too much! :rofl: :thumbsup:

[BurtWorm]

9. I live to make you LYAO, KrazyKat!

;)

I appreciate your appreciation of my sick sense of humor.

2. flying from the hoods of cars, on t-shirts, dinner ware and

table cloths, beach towels......okay people help me out here....


:sarcasm:

4. When someone who truly loves and respects their country

flies it to honor America, not just as a statement that they are "part of the team", not as a statement of loyalty to Bush, and not as a fashion statement or fad.

[bleedingheart]

7. I once had a repub tell me he was shocked that a Democrat would

own a flag.

That is how deluded some of the folks on the other side are....

13. Nice

My comeback would be something like "You notice how Democrats' flags are usually clean and not left to weather damage or dirt!"

Flag burning, protests, stuff like that, fine with me, do whatever you want.


But one thing that really pisses me off is when I see a flag that was just left out by some faux patriot who lets the wind and rain tear it to shreds.

15. Flying it respectfully on Memorial Day, Vets Day, 4th of July.

Or any other day for that matter. A normal sized run up a pole in the morning and brought down at night.

When I was a 4H camper and later camp counselor we would do this as a group after breakfast every morning and after dinner every night.

I also believe fling the flag the same way in public schools and government buildings is honorable and appropriate.

16. Reminds me of my neighbor

He hates bush with a passion. Three times a year he sends his flag to the cleaners because he puts it out on almost every holiday. He takes really good care of it.

12. Good. This is it. Not as a fad of psuedopatriotism or fashion. nt

[ComerPerro]

14. Me either, and its been all over the place since 9/11

[Wilber_Stool]

5. Selling washing machines

and refrigerators.
And shirts. Shirts for patriots.

[Dr Fate]

6. Gigantic Uncle Sam hats & baked-bean stained 4th of July paper plates.

And of course, Dr. Fate's death mask icon.

[VOX]

8. Draping the coffins of our servicemen and women who've been killed...

following orders. In other words, the military dead who * NEVER sees, and whose funerals he NEVER attends. :grr:

[cynatnite]

10. I second that!

He's a damn coward. He was too cowardly to serve in combat and he's too cowardly to face the families of those he sent to die.


BTW, love your cats :)

[KamaAina]

17. Don't forget "who ** won't let Sen. Joe Biden see, either,"

...even though Dover AFB is in Biden's home state.

:grr: :banghead:

[cynatnite]

18. I read about that...

What a disgrace.

We have the right to mourn our war dead and bush denies the people from doing it.

[BiggJawn]

11. Folded and hidden on a top shelf.

Waiting for the day it can be proudly displayed again and not mistook for a symbol of agreement with the Bush Criminals.
