Do you think there's something wrong with flying the flag?
It's an interesting idea and it just came up last week at our high school swim team reunion when I was talking to a former teammate, and one of my best friends from those days, who's as Democrat as Democrat can be, and very liberal. He told me he's taken to flying the US flag at his house to protest the idea that Democrats aren't patriotic and also to resist the notion that many of his liberal Democratic friends have that there is something wrong with flying the flag. He said one of his neighbors actually asked if he'd become a Trump supporter after he started flying the flag (he of course is not at all a fan of Trump). I just got to wonder WTF is wrong with people if they think flying their country's flag isn't a good thing. Don't nearly all Americans, regardless of party, love their country and are proud to be citizens?
By the way, he says I was his inspiration for flying the flag because I have a 24 foot flagpole and fly the US flag along with various other flags underneath (most often IU, but also several others) and I've posted a few pictures on Facebook on the appropriate days (IU game days, etc.). If any of my neighbors thinks flying the US flag means I'm a Trump supporter, that makes them douchebags and it's their problem. Today I'm flying the US flag and a Dallas Cowboys flag.
Go Cowboys!
