You have 30 days for decorations. If you start 15 days early then you have fifteen days before and fifteen days after the event AND then comes Flag day (6/14) so you are good for 30 more das AND then comes Independence Day so you are good for 30 more days so I could have American flags and banners and garage decorations from May 15 until July 15th.

And I do.

Long live the US of A!

I do agree with you but the homeowner has to maintain them. I have passed several homes where small American flags have been stuck in the ground and they have blown over, been next to the lawn mower and are dirty, or just tilted so the flag is drooping on the ground.

Maintain them and it looks good. Otherwise, it is a disrespectful thing to see.
