I'm not talking like 10 of them, just one. Even for historical reasons.

Edit: I suppose you could answer any way you like it, but fwiw I meant like an American flag. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²

Got an American flag up in the front of the garage.

You can be proud of the good parts of being an American and still want to improve on the bad parts. I respect people's choice to not fly one if they don't feel like the flag deserves it right now, but I know in other countries that are fighting oppression you will see the American flag is often being waved in those crowds. To many people it still holds the symbol of freedom and individual identity.

I also have a "no touchy" emperors new groove version of the Gadsden flag on my wall because I find the meme hilarious.

I was not aware of this flag before. It's fantastic!

It really is a fantastic flag. I can always hear David Spades voice in my head every time I look at it lol .

This is an awesome answer!:-) "They"/others shouldn't get to define whoever it is that "we" are.:-)

Apparently AZ Dbacks fans like to fly a no step on snek version of the gadsden flag, which I find hilarious.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

The no step on snek version was the original meme version of the flag. I just find anything llama related hilarious so the emperors new groove version is what I rock.
