I second that.
Just damn.
Cool. A little girl inspired it, which is even cooler.
Yeesh!
Not sure if I like the American flag being driven over (she painted it on a street it appears). Seems disrespectful.
Agreed. The flag on the ground doesn't sit well with me.
The American Flag does not belong on the ground. Not even a picture of it.
I fly the American flag in my front yard. I dare anyone to try and take it down.
Have to agree with that, especially as it's being driven over, getting rubber and soot and mud on it. Although I'm sure the girl's motives are good, she needs a lesson in the Flag Code.
You all need to het a grip it's a painting of a Flag not an actual Flag
It's been painted on cart's path's garden rocks the bottom of swimming pools trash cans garbage trucks garage floors wall buildings any place you can paint a picture a flag has been put !
It's a Picture
a picture that doesn't belong on the ground. Sorry.
It's a picture.
Of a flag.
It is not the Constitution.
It is not the Declaration of Independence.
It is not Lincoln's grave site.
It's a picture.
Of a flag.
It is P E R F E C T L Y O K for a little girl to draw one on the pavement.
Really.
Geez....
The flag was paintd on the street and shouldnt be there. Her parents helped them, the parents are the ones that messed up.
Wrong! A POW complained about the flag on the ground.
OK, if they allow the flag to be painted on the street then they must allow ANYTHING to be painted on the street.
Per U. S. Code, Title 4, Chapter 1 - the Flag paragraph 3.
The words 'flag, standard, colors, or ensign', as used herein, shall include any flag, standard, colors, ensign, or any picture or representation of either, or of any part or parts of either, made of any substance or represented on any substance, of any size evidently purporting to be either of said flag, standard, colors, or ensign of the United States of America or a picture or a representation of either, upon which shall be shown the colors, the stars and the stripes, in any number of either thereof, or of any part or parts of either, by which the average person seeing the same without deliberation may believe the same to represent the flag, colors, standard, or ensign of the United States of America.
Ditto to that comment !!!!!
