I'm not sure what he's trying to say here. I was annoyed that flags appeared everywhere after 11 September

I thought they were wonderful. Our nations colors were once again flying high. People started to remember how great it was to be an American. What would you have prefered? The hammer and sickle?

I would prefer people fly the flag in accordance to the U.S. Flag Code.

Way to take my statement completely out of context. Makes me wonder if someone is doing the same thing in the article.

If you'll re-read my post, what bugged me is that it was extremely short-lived-- and the ones that didn't even bother to remove the flags left a tattered remnant which, in my opinion, is worse than removing it.

Our flag is an icon that needs to be cherished and kept looking good.
