So, driving to work this morning I saw Our Flag. The beautiful Red, White and Blue. I'm filled with pride when I see it waving in the sky; I'm filled with distain when I see one tattered!
What to do, what to do.... If you see a flag that should NOT be flying because it is tattered - what do you do? I feel that I should call the company flying the flag and 'inform' them that they are disgracing our flag by flying it in that condition. But is that within my rights or responsibility? There lies my conflict......so I do nothing and keep feeling bad when I see an unkept flag.
Why fly a flag if it's tattered and torn. Respect the flag. If you can't / won't replace when needed, then don't fly one at all, or at least take it down when it's no longer presentable.
