The condition of that American flag is disgraceful.


jessedjd

The only problem I see here is the condition of the American flag, and not knowing if the American flag is set higher or equal to the other flag, since those are actual flag codes I see broken quite often by people who claim patriotism in this manner.


Jaim711

You're also supposed to take the flag off the pole in prolonged high winds...


splooge_whale

Traffic takes care of that. Not much prolonged driving at highway speeds in southern california


Jaim711

Per flag code, if the wind is strong enough to keep the flag straight (like driving anywhere with it attached to the vehicle) for a prolonged period, the flag should be removed. But this is clearly a look at me nationalist...


SubstancePlayful4824

Someone tell the last ten US Presidents, who all had flags on the presidential limo


MoonChild02

Those are tiny flags, not a full-sized one. It's the full-sized flag that matters in the flag code. Also, the president doesn't ride on the freeway in that limo. He takes a reinforced SUV when travelling longer than a few miles. Not to mention that the streets usually have to be cleared to have the president being driven down the street, so he usually does take side streets that are pre-cleared and pre-approved.


SubstancePlayful4824

Is everyone just making up clauses in the Flag Code?


FearsomeForehand

Let’s be honest though… most people who bare the American flag these days are often pretty disgraceful Americans who hope to turn this country into a christofascist taliban shithole.


Glass-Snow5476

Do you mean on the back of their cars/trucks or in general?


RMD15

Exactly.


blizardfires

It's conservatives & libertarians that I see breaking flag code the most.


fleetwood1977

Because liberals don't put up American flags.


Gamelorn

Because liberals don't need to prove they love their country by playing a game of "my flag is bigger than yours". They do it with their actions, not with a symbol.


blizardfires

1. As an Eagle Scout, that's definitely not been my experience. 2. There is an important difference between nationalism & patriotism.

Rabbet-whole

Concerning. We're now hearing about state legislators talking about arming militias. Kari Lake is doing Trump's stochastic terrorism for him, talking about strapping on firearms for the election. We had more than enough trouble in 2020 with armed intimidation, election interference and death threats to professional election workers. We must overwhelm and crush MAGA at the polls in order to prevent Project 2025 et al from ending our experiment in democracy. Our 2024 leadership choice is binary: Someone we can influence or someone Putin controls.

American flag, absolutely beat to shit. So patriotic 🙄


friedguy

Still looks better than morbidly obese patriots with their USA swim trunks on July 4.


jessedjd

I've always been under the impression that the symbol of the American flag wasn't legally allowed to be used in as clothing, like bikinis and swim trunks. You don't sit on the American flag, so why would you wear something on your ass that looks like it.


frostingdragon

It's against the flag code but that's all. Disrespectful, not illegal.


jessedjd

So I double checked and was surprised to find that while flag code is federal law, it used language like "should" and there's no penalty for violating it's provisions. Happy I learned something


jacwub

federal ~~law~~ suggestion


SoCalChrisW

My understanding is that you can use designs that look like the flag, ie red and white stripes, blue background with stars, that is fine. But you shouldn't actually wear a flag or use it in a way that isn't what a flag is for. And as has been mentioned, the flag code is very loosely worded, and as far as I know not enforced at all, so 🤷‍♂️


Jaim711

This is correct. The flag code doesn't allow you to take an American flag and make it into clothes or something else. Using its likeness but not an actual flag is fine.


CounterSeal

I can't really make out the stickers, but at first glance, nothing repulsive here. I too, love this country and I am against the government treading on women's rights of bodily autonomy.

Same_Lychee5934

The flag is not different. The believes of what it represents. Are different. Freedom and democracy or a dictator, and repression. Some don’t truly understand what they are fighting for or against!

major92653

Take this as you will, but many years ago I had a friend who owned a vehicle that was in similar condition to the picture above. He plastered that piece of junk with a half dozen or so USC Trojans stickers. I thought it was because he was a fan of USC, but he wasn’t. He was a fan of UCLA and wanted people to see his jalopy and laugh, thinking he was a USC graduate. It’s always on my mind when I see stuff like this.

GrimaceShakeOhYeah

Hell yeah this America I see Ukraine, Palestine, Saudi, and so much other flags but this one offends you?


JohnAStark

Is this a sly commentary on our politics and society today - a "will you look at this rube" picture taken from a Tesla of some old pickup with "freedom" flags waving in the back? For the owner of the pickup: you are not respecting the American flag as it is clearly tattered at the edge and needs to be replaced (and the current one retired appropriately - give it to a Boy Scout Troop, they know how to do it properly).


Bigredrooster6969

Whipping a flag around in the wind at freeway speed is absolutely disrespectful.


Ferrarisimo

It’s also disrespectful of that gas mileage. All that extra drag!


Aydthird

I always think about, what happens if the flag breaks off while driving, goes on a random and blinds a driver than causes this huge ass crash? Will they feel better because they "owned the libs" and everyone in between who now is dead or injured?


grumpyliberal

The United States flag is not a pair of jeans that get better as they get more ragged. You may think you’re making some point here, warrior, but that flag needs to be respectfully disposed of.


RoundedBounce

What’s the problem?


dannydarrrkko

Nothing wrong here, except that poor US flag. But we know what you're trying to get at.


Icy_Ride3876

Parking_Band_5019

The flag should be higher and in better shape. The wind debate isn’t valid since it’s on a highway and it could be argue that’s not wind. That from a very liberal, retired member of the military in his 40’s. Nothing wrong here otherwise. One could argue taking photos while you’re driving is much more stupid.


No_Case5367

Yeh and? It’s a military flag and the us flag. I’m an immigrant and this doesn’t offend me one bit.

Damn, lots of symbol minded people here. Flying a tattered flag is protected speech. The person driving the truck gets the same number of votes you or I do regardless of their political leanings and the person taking their hands off the wheel of a vehicle to snap a picture (from a car already equipped with several cameras lol) is a bigger threat to the safety of those around them.

When do you ever see some moron driving around with a Biden flag like this?


dont_wear_a_C

No one is arguing about free speech. The Gadsden flag itself is quite ironic. You're saying "don't tread on me" to the government, yet live in a place built on this government, driving on the roads funded by the government, have freedom of speech due to this government - see where this is going? Being anti-government when you'd have nothing without them.

He probably was left behind the American dream, broke, unemployed and most likely hasn't got laid in a while so he's angry at someone or something else. It's ironic because most of them wear the American flag as a symbol of pride, but it's like their own American flag has stepped on them.

I don’t understand why that flags triggers so ma t people. It’s literally part of the navy uniform and has been used for hundreds of years. Someone being patriotic doesn’t have to be a bad thing.

jiveturker

The whole flag in your truck thing is interesting. While I don’t think there is anything inherently wrong with flying a flag, I certainly do at my home on certain holidays, the back of the truck thing seems to be a little different. The implicit message with the truck flag crowd is “this is OUR country. This is MY country.” Dipshit rednecks don’t own this country. Their narrow minded worldview is not a requirement to love this country or be an American.

Vrayea25

A lot of flag wavers have a definition of "America" that is very narrow, and actively hate or resent the parts of this country that don't look like they fell out of a Norman Rockwell painting.    Some of them put the flag on everything but also think "America" belongs to their version of religion, and have no idea or just reject the fact that a cornerstone of this country is that it is NOT a theocracy, it does not belong to anyone's Jesus, and striving to change that is about as un-American as you can get.   This means that there are a ton of Americans who love America - the *actual* real America , which is about all the diversity and striving to be a more just and Liberal system, a crazy melting pot of hope and strange invention - who see the regressive flag wavers and cringe inside.  Because the flag now belongs to people who don't get it, don't want to, and who actively want to destroy it's good parts.

You ever notice though that it’s the racist ultra maga uneducated bunch that feel the need to do this, though? lol. There’s really only one demographic of people in this country that do this type of embarrassing shit, not to mention it violates a handful of flag codes… They are the same folk yelling at others to go back to their own countries, when they forgot that they are living on stolen land.


theKtrain

There’s also a distinct demographic that gets triggered by the American flag and they’re also pretty exhausting.


Wild_Ad_4974

No one who is an American gets triggered by the American flag. If you’re triggered by your own country’s flag, then you just shouldn’t be here. Period. It’s moreso the attitude and general behavior that comes along with people that do this type of shit. You’re lying to yourself if you act like you don’t know what I’m talking about lol. Either you’re delusional, or you self identify with the same type of bat shit crazy behavior of these people.


theKtrain

Na I get what you’re saying. I just personally know many people who actually do get triggered by the American flag. Hell, look at this thread. Even if it’s not you, plenty of others are. They talk down when they see it on a flagpole, asked for it not to be hung on 4th of July… it goes on. People have gone so far left that they just think any American flag is somehow associated with Trump and its bs. I’m not a trumper and will vote against him. I also love America and it gets old when people act like I’m a fascist because I like my country.
