Umm, not quite.
You see, burning the flag is a symbol that you are against "the man" and that you hate the USA. This is considered "good" speech and is encouraged by our betters.
On the other hand flying the flag is a symbol of your support for neo-colonial imperialism by a white race that wishes to exterminate all others in a quest for profit. It is also a symbol revered by "baby killers" in our so-called "Department of Defense". This is considered double plus un-good and must be crushed at all opportunity.
UPDATE:
BAN REVERSED
State reverses flag ban at Wrentham housing complex
WRENTHAM — The state has stepped in to reverse a decision by a Massachusetts town’s housing authority that barred residents from flying U.S. flags outside their homes.
A spokesman for the state Department of Housing and Community Development said Thursday that the flag ban was “a mistake that is being corrected immediately.”
The Wrentham Housing Authority notified residents of the policy through a letter taped to their doors Wednesday.
The unsigned letter says the move was made after a tenant made “repeated” complaints to the state housing department over the Fourth of July holiday.
Eighty-two-year-old tenant Barbara Marshall told The Sun Chronicle that she had no intention of removing the flag flying outside her home despite the order.
No one at the housing authority would comment.
