Important note: the display of the flag causes many Americans to feel more patriotic for as long as two weeks, and these feelings *exclusively* benefit conservatism and the Republican party. And they may even be enough to affect a close political election.
Equally importantly, liberals and leftists *do not* feel increased patriotism, and the Democrat party actually *loses* support with the display of the flag.
Because of this, more and more Democrats and leftists have taken to try and limit flag display, as well as to vandalize, steal and destroy American flags, if they think they can get away with it, even in cemeteries.
It is no longer just a “children being wicked” excuse. Often these are adults, who will trespass on your property, and perhaps set your flag on fire, endangering the safety of you and your family, in an act of bitter rage and hate against our national flag.
It is criminal, and it is intolerable. And because the law does not prescribe any adequate punishment for it, punishment is likely the responsibility of the average citizen to carry out.
Take down the crucifix, obliterate prayer in schools and public meetings and join the rabble Muslims and Mexicans in defacing the American flag!
Dis ain’t your America anymo’! You didn’t do nuthin’ to make it great....
which is probably the truth over these past 40 or more years.
How many younger ‘Americans’ know what Independence Day is really about?
