Typically fly the Confederate flag (bought at Gettysburg) on July 3rd and my 48 star US Flag on the 4th, I think maybe the Battle Flag of the Army of Northern Virginia may stay up this year.

My brand new “An Appeal to Heaven” flag has even more meaning after today’s ruling.

We haven’t put out the American flag since 2009

I still think of the flag as a symbol of what the US should be and what it was created to be. I don’t like to see them flown upside down. I would rather you buy a Gadsden flag, the yellow one with the snake, and fly that instead.

I sure would hate to have children going to school these days. They are to get indoctrination rammed down their throat like you won’t believe. It only took SCOTUS 53 years to replace prayer in school with homosexuality. What an abomination!

Gay marriage, flag debates, and trans-people are side issues.

These are not surmountable by any human or political or secular means:
* $18 trillion in known debt (plus unspecified trillions in liabilities such as Social Security, derivatives)
* Federal Reserve creating trillions in bank reserves
* 1 million abortions per year
* steep decline in devout religious

Ever notice that the Confederate battle flag cannot be flown upside down?

Displaying the original Stars and Bars or the Bonnie Blue flag makes a subtle point, too.

FWIW I’m pro-Union, but I also dislike seeing Al Sharpton & Eugene Robinson dancing in the end zone spiking the ball.

How about no symbols at all. Just a relationship with the One who gives life.

I have no more faith in the USA, I will not celebrate the 4th of July, for the first time in my life I feel NO loyalty or fealty with this country, if it can still be called a country.

I turned mine upside down when the Senate acquitted Clinton during the impeachment. I had more than ten people ring my doorbell to tell me that I had the flag wrong. When I explained what the reason was, most didn't know what I was talking about. I took the flag down and it's still in the utility room.

I see it everyday when I feed the dog and I think back to my youth and wonder how it all went wrong.

I've got a Gadsden and a original “Betsy Ross” American flag coming in for Independence Day. You could always go back to the Betsy Ross flag in honor of what the country stood for.

Fly it however you please. They don’t care, as long as you pay your taxes. That’s what keeps them going.
Of course, you could protest in the streets. If a few thousand others do likewise in every city, that would make them nervous.
I think you’re safe on that score.
