Lol the united states flag code is one of my favorite pieces of literature. It's so concise in it's pointlessness, which I can't help but respect

Quote
The flag shall never be dipped to any person or thing.


Quote
The flag should not be used as "wearing apparel, bedding, or drapery"


All you people with your flag shirts should be ashamed of yourselves

I honestly get really fucking annoyed with people who violate the flag code. Any time I see someone's house flying a flag in the rain, I want to go kick down their door and claim that I thought they were under attack. :(

Would be a good call, imo. I'd read that news story.

Teacher needs to sue and show those special snowflakes that the right to be offended does not exist in this country.

It's easy to take token offense over a symbol as if it's some slight against the tribe, it's just another form of virtue signaling, but standing up for the underlying principles behind it even when it's not politically correct to do so, that takes courage.

I was going to say that I might wait until I take a trip to Florida, but then that would significantly increase my chances of getting shot. :(

Thanks for the mostly meaningless garbage bumper sticker.
