Great point. The surrenderists would defend the rights of invaders to bear arms!
Ah... it must be part of the statutes governing immigration.
It’s a damn good start. Completely agree with your tagline.
You are incorrect. 4 USC sec 5 indicates that the following sections apply to civilians and civilian organizations. Ergo, 4 USC sec 7 applies to civilians.
Displaying the flag contrary to this section of the Code of Federal Regulations is unlawful. Unlawful means wrong and should not be defended whether a penalty is described or not.
So, are there other laws that private citizens are free to pick and choose whether to follow or not? Are laws even necessary? Why bother at all with the troublesome things?
No.
4 USC sec 5 specifies civilians and civilian organizations.
Bad laws should never be obeyed. Not because one does not feel like it, but because obeying it establshes a precedent that the bad law is somehow right or ok.
Military persons are taught that they are not required to obey an unlawful order. Should civilians be allowed less?
No.
No?
It's illegal to take down a man's flag, flown on private property -- but is it wrong?
No.
a few weeks of protests in front of the bar will end the bar.

Nice summary. It fits with everything I learned about southwest history.
When our Dish system was installed in 2000, the first thing I asked the tech was to show me how to block CNN.
He laughed and said that was a fairly common request for those cancelling the local cable to get Fox News.
CNN remains blocked on our system. When visitors try to get CNN, I tell them when they check in to one of the local motels they can watch CNN. CNN is not allowed to waste air time and electricity at our home.
This is another good reason for conservatives to block CNN on their satellite and cable systems.
There are alot of old vets like yourself, who are reaching the same level of discontent re Mexican Flags and other bs.
The left had better back away from this bs or the scene below will be repeated throughout the US.
Below is a great link re how the Army Vet reacted to the flying of the Mexican flag over the American flag. (Wait about 30 seconds for the commercial to play.)
I don't care for anyone who flys a foreign flag above old glory, but said person has a right to do so, especially if it is on their property.
Thanks so much for that link...it helps explain a bit better..and the video clip of OUR veteran’s reaction just brought so much emotion. God Bless Our Country.....
The link below shows how a Mexican American felt about a Hispanic goon trying to burn an American Flag.

You two might be really surprised at how Mexican American citizens feel about this bs. I would love for you two to have your lame a$$ discussions with a loyal Mexican American friend of mine.
He served as a Marine in Desert Storm and his two nephews are on their 3rd tour of Iraq. He has zero tolerance for b$ artists like you two and the ACLU b$ which is the same line. One flag flies over his business and on his trucks, the American Flag.
Like the Sarge requested, don’t respond to me. I avoid contact with critters like you and other vermin who spout the ACLU spin.
This flag bs of Mexican flags flying over or instead of our flag is reaching a critical issue with millions of vets. A lot of those vets are Mexican Americans with maybe less tolerance for this Mexican Flag bs than the rest of us.
The dumping of the tea in the Boston Harbor was a symbolic event that eventually lead to this country’s freedom.
This vet’s response will be replicated across the country, and maybe looked at by historians in the same light of the Boston Tea Party.
It’s too bad they have to be the ones to do it. The country they protected should be doing it for them.
All I can say it’s about time we stop sitting on our hands. I just sent the link to as many people as I could...
