Do these flag variations violate the Flag Act? Do they disrespect the American Flag

Do OPP conservatives agree with all of the multi colored flag variations that are being flown and displayed?

Personally, I am opposed to any alteration of the traditional American flag, and consider it to be disrespectful.

Might be 'protected' speech, but shouldn't be.

There are many norms that have sadly been ignored for years. You walk into diners in the south and West and see damn near every guy in the place with a hat. Gentlemen should of course remove hats indoors and in the presence of women. When the American Olympic hockey team beat the Russians they skated around the ice wrapped in the flag, a blatant, disrespectful violation of the flag code and no one cared. It is a violation of the flag code to wear the flag as clothing and yet many do. As far as the altered flags you linked to they have no place in our society. The flag represents all Americans not the individual groups these bastardized versions represent.

This young lady is violating the flag code and should remove it at once!

It is still against the law, but then, so is using the flag as apparel, table cloths, and the 1000 other violations.

This is what happens when no one is held to account for anything, well, unless you're non white, then you can expect the book to be thrown at you.

And yet, if burning the flag in protest is protected free speech. Then aren't those others. Or is it only protected free speech when protesting something and not protected free speech when celebrating something.

But for once I will agree with Kev. That lady should remove that flag.
