      In the words of Propaghandi:

      Cuz if this country is so goddam free,
      Then I can burn your fucking flag wherever I damn well please.
      And then I'm gonna stick it up your fucking ass

        Not sure about the US, but what I was taught here in Norway during my time in the army is that the colors are to be separated by cutting the seams so that the individual pieces no longer constitute a flag. Then you burn the individual colors. I imagine separating the colors would be a PITA with a US flag.

        We do the same, but the way you remove the stars from the blue rectangle is by shooting each one with a 12 gauge shotgun.

          All he does is signal to his base. That’s all this is. Just like his bullshit taking over democratic cities. He doesn’t stand for anything but tax cuts to billionaires or anything the rich want. The rest is just to keep his rabid followers thinking he’s “owning the libs.” It’s straight garbage.

              Actually, reading this makes it seem that all those AI pictures of Trump as a super hero are federally illegal if there's a rendering of the U.S. flag on them. hmmmmmmmmmm

              This is a "code", not the law.

              Edit: I guess it is the "law" for whatever that's worth these days.

                Actually it is law, it just isn't generally enforced since it's federal and not state/local law.

                The United States Code is a consolidation and codification by subject matter of the general and permanent laws of the United States. It is prepared by the Office of the Law Revision Counsel of the United States House of Representatives.

                      Hmm, that's really interesting.

                      I wonder if there is actually any precedent at all for this being enforced?
