"Coming to the US soon. We already "can't" fly the confederate flag because the left decided it was racist - oh about ten years ago when the south started going GOP. Now some high schools have been warning students that displaying the US flag is "provacative"."

Coming to the USA, courtesy of George Bush/John McCain/Ted Kennedy and their AMNESTY bill!

Thanks, that's better.

I know I thinks it's great. I first saw it here:

I was visiting a friend in Dallas and he had a couple of British guests. One was a Royal Marine. We provided the food and he bought this stuff. We shared a more than a few bottles of this over dinner.

I hate that they disarm their citizens. Your people will be like lambs at the slaughter if the ragheads decide to just start killing house to house.

Following warnings by extremist Islamic group al-Muhajiroun, in which the group said that the red cross in the England flag symbolizes the 'blood thirsty crusaders' and the occupation of Muslims,

All the more reason to fly it then!!!!!

[Rummyfan]

Post-colonial guilt and slavish devotion to the religion of 'multiculturism'.

Hate to tell ya, but we're not too far behind. Some of our schools (with majority Latino populations) are afraid to fly America Flags. Seems we're forgetting the most critical lesson of the last century: APPEASEMENT DOESN'T WORK!!

The flag of the City of London (the original square-mile Roman settlement) is even better.

Oh good grief.

Has England turned French?

[Churchillspirit]

I'll settle for it's motto also

Domine dirige nos

Lord direct us.

it seems really, really wierd that a chain of bars would ban team colors during such a time.

Not when the perceived alternative is having your pub bombed to splinters, with your patrons in it. Myself, I'd station guards armed with assault rifles outside, with NVG gear... Oh I forgot, no guns for law abiding Britons (practically speaking), and even the Police are rarely armed.

[thinking]

Yes...and we all better remember...

"Hey Muzzies, this is for you."

This is what happens when the lawyers take over the board of directors.

However, Muslim extremists are still killing each other over the multiplication sign.

x or *, which does Allah decree? Maybe that's why in algebra, stolen by the Muslims from India, neither is usually used.

Ok. I can't even spell vexillology.? What are the two crosses in the Union Jack? One is Saint Anthony, the other, Saint Arnold? No, I think he's the patron saint of brewers.

Well, anyway, which one offends the ragtops? And why?

And, why should not the ragtops hire the ACLU to declare any religions that revere one of these saints, a "hate" religion?

[rlmorel]

I prefer this one...:)

That flag is actually the White Ensign - flown on all ships of the Royal Navy.

It is that, but it is also the flag of England. England, Scotland and Northern Ireland, each have their own national flags (although Northern Islands is now unofficial, the Union flag being their flag now), just as States in the US do.

Flag of England.

Do have to watch my neck now? Well if I do, I'm sure my 1911, M-1 Carbine, H&K G-3, and Maverick "serious social purposes" shotgun, and other such items, will help.

Scotland

Northern Ireland

Wales, which for historical reasons is not represented on the Union Flag.
