The Flag Code is a codification of customs and rules established for the use of certain civilians and civilian groups. No penalty or punishment is specified in the Flag Code for display of the flag of the United States in a manner other than as suggested. Cases which have construed the former 36 U.S.C. § 17521 have concluded that the Flag Code does not proscribe conduct, but is merely declaratory and advisory.”

Yes, I read it, I also read the rest of it and my argument stands, it is against the law, punishment or not. It is also the act of a coward and a traitor to fly a flag of another country above the US flag while on US territory. Nice job on the ad hominem.

Now try argument.

I guess you can't read very well gracesdad, I gave you an argument,and there was no ad hominem, just a simple statement of fact: Anyone who thinks it is ok to fly a flag of another country above the US flag is a traitor, period, end of statement.

Actually, I was the one who accused you of an ad hominem argument, not gracedad. You called the poster you were replying to a traitor without supporting the charge or directly addressing his argument.

Absolutely.

The people who believe there is no punishment for flying other countries flags above the Stars and Stripes believe only the govt. can punish someone for it, but the liquor store owner lost two flags and probably some business.
