Now my question is how do these patriotic folks take care of those flags?
I've seen so many touching the ground, fallen over, torn and stained and not displayed with honor.

I've also seen bundles of those $1.50 dollar flags sitting on top of people's garbage waiting for pickup. What might their excuse be?

Don't be so quick to judge.
