This just makes my blood really boil. I have family members who gave their lives for this country and this flag. I have not seen the flag of any other country defaced in public in just this way, only America's. Wearing it on your shoes? Who the hell are the makers of these products? And who the hell are these illegal SOB's who break into our country, steal our Social Security benefits, vote in our elections, drive with no insurance, crowd our hospitals and doctors offices and school rooms, criminalize our neighborhoods, with no consequences for their horrific behavior, and then wear our flag on their dirty stinking feet? In most cultures feet are considered unclean to begin with. The two SOB's I saw wearing these this past week in Tampa were both Hispanic, both were sloppy pigs, one a female in a grocery store, the other a male in a doctor's office. And their U.S. flag sneakers were dirty. I have had it. This is deliberately giving Americans the middle finger in public. It's the only way I can see it. It's raw defiance and hatred. I cannot believe this degree of blatant disrespect is unintentional. Yet it is advertised as being "patriotic". What would happen if I walked around with the image of the Cuban or Mexican flag on my shoes? Just how long do you think I'd last?
No need to be insulting. (To quote you, #36)
Seems to me that’s more respectful than displaying the gay rainbow flag on everything.

I found Mexican, French and Palestinian flag shoes with a quick Google search. But only 1 of each and a MILLION flag shoes, including with Trump on them. This is what happens when a country decides to worship demonstrative fake patriotism. I was having this discussion right here in FR a few months ago. Some people LOVE LOVE LOVE when companies stick the flag all over the place, never considering the clear fact that the company is just banking on their addiction to patriotism to sell a product and isn’t actually patriotic at all. But they wouldn’t hear it. And this is what you get. And have gotten for a while actually, I saw flag shoes in the 80s.
Of all the things to be concerned about....this isn’t it - *especially* as it only *resembles* our flag but is NOT A FLAG.
"It doesn’t bother me either. So, what the hell is your point?"
1) Learn some class if that's possible.
2) Try open carry (for states where it is lawful) around some illegals with dirty American flag emblems on their shoes, they won't be around for long.
