Easy, fellas. The same thing is going to happen after the Republican Convention.

I give the RATS credit for not burning them.

Most were probably embarrassed to have to wave them.

Interesting that no flags were visible for the first 2 1/2 days of the convention. Just prior to Bill Clinton’s speech and the Blogs bringing that to attention, everybody was waving a flag. There is a code for disposing of the flag and leaving it for the trash man is not one of the several options recommended.....!

This is an outrage.

They should have dropped these off at the nearest National Guard/Military facility for proper disposal.

These people don’t have any respect for the flag.

"When a flag is so worn it is no longer fit to serve as a symbol of our country, it should be destroyed by burning in a dignified manner"

Flag Etiquette

I was the Top Secret Control Officer at Minot AFB. I remember disposing of worn out flags on several occasions. We folded them in the "cocked hat" manner and placed them in the burn barrel. We stood at attention and sang "The Star Spangled Banner" while it was consumned!

They felt cheated. They didn’t get all 57 stars.
