I start off this forum discussion by posting of a FLAG not only improperly display in Hadley, but in such disrepair, it is a disgrace. This so called American is seems more proud of his Heritage than being an American. I suggest all of you that carry a CAMERA to get out and take a picture and post it here, but to also go up to the door of such people and tell them how they are disrespecting the flag, and our country.--a proud Navy VET. The homeowner featured hear considers himself to be a "South African" because under law--of this great land--you CANNOT fly the flag of another nation directly beneath the American Flag. It MUST be on another entirely different pole!

I do believe the Stars Bangle Banner that flew over the fort had bullet holes and cannon holes in as it flew for a couple of days and nights. " and the flag was still there." I fought for my country and that flag and I'll fly it anyway I please. If someone doesn't like the way I fly my flag you can go ------.
P.S. I do believe its a free country and to heck with educate.
