It is still beyond me that this flag even remains available for purchase. It s a clear violation of the Flag Code and disrespectful to the American Flag. The Stars and Straipes should never be replaced with any President, regardless of the reason behind it. This flag flew over a Florida county’s Democratic headquarters right … Continue reading »
This photo was sent to me by a reader so first off – thanks for sharing! Though this may or may not be 100% against any Flag Code, it sure is a tacky way to not proudly display the American flag. This is at a car lot, and they are using the lamp posts as … Continue reading »
Just a few days before Flag Day, Colonel Allen West went for a funfilled Army Veterans dive off the coast in Broward County. And to show his love of America, he took his American flag swimming with him. According to many parts of the US Flag Code, this is in violation. You shouldn’t get it … Continue reading »
First off, once again, I have no problems with the rainbow flag so lets just get that out there! However, when flying it on the same flagpole as the American flag (or any flag for that matter) the flag below the US flag should be a size smaller. As you can see in this photo, … Continue reading »
This picture comes to us from a reader Allison. This flag is flying at the Reid & Reid Contractors in Cunnings, Georgia. As you can see, their American flag is extremely worn. the stripes are staring to come apart and the fly end is fraying severely. Over time it will just continue to keep fraying … Continue reading »
I’m taking a break from rockstar month to throw this photograph in. I’ll be doing this a few times in the coming weeks since I’ve got a few reader submissions I want to share! This is from Sean in Colorado. The Clarion Inn in Pueblo CO, 100 yards south of the Home Of The Heroes … Continue reading »
Sorry about the delay. Been a busy month! But found some new images to post of more flags gone wild so stay tuned!
Here’s a flag at Amli at Milton Park clearly needing a touch up. The fly end is extremely worn and the top stripes are fraying apart. Bad things is most locations like this will let these flags run to their last thread and when its in this shape it will continue to separate closer in … Continue reading »
In case you didn’t know by now (and every American should know this by birth), when your American flag is ripped to shreds and is no longer a symbol of pride but instead becoming a symbol of disrecpect, you need to retire your American flag properly. You can take it to the VFW or even … Continue reading »
Here is an American flag submitted by one of our readers that she grabbed a photo of. Clearly shows the American flag unfit to be flying on a flagpole anymore. According to the US Flag Code: “The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should … Continue reading »
In March of 2006 at Montebello High School in California, students were having a protest over immigration reform. According to the news I found on it, the incident was NOT prompted by MHS students but instead by students from nearby school. About 1,000 students from the neighboring schools marched through Pico Rivera to Montebello in … Continue reading »
I gotta say…sometimes enough si enough when it comes to your flags life! A reader submitted this photo to me and I think it fits perfectly with some baaaaaaaaad flag behavior. The Iowa State flag, American flag and Marine Corps flag are all just bet to death! Half the Iowa flag is missing! Where there … Continue reading »
I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again. If your American flag is looking bad, take it down, retire it properly, and give it some respect with a proper flag burning ceremony. Don’t just leave it on the flagpole to flap around in a horrific manner. Take it to your local VFW, contact an American … Continue reading »
Every once in a while, you may have to ask yourself just how far you want to take something. I’m all for the rainbow flag, I’m all for the American flag….what I’m NOT for is merging the two together. The American flag is a symbol of a country, not a lifestyle or choice. So to … Continue reading »
Someone help it. It’s in dire need of either a hug, a makeover, or needs to be taken to the VFW to be put to sleep. If the US Flag Code could talk it would say “The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should … Continue reading »
