You'd better be wearing an American flag T shirt to school tomorrow!

[ducks~n~bucks]

Isn't it against flag code and/or disrespectful to the flag to wear it as a garment anyway?

Tomorrow's Saturday...

[capt1972]

Fuck them! But its ok that I have to look at their shitty flag flying all over the place?!

I don't see how it could be.

Truth, I would have told them to suck a dick.

That's just something I had heard. Something about the flag not supposed to get dirty, clothes get dirty.

[3legged_lab]

I'm speechless.

I don't think you can wear a flag "as" clothing but a shirt with it on there is ok. May be wrong though.

Yeah but what about Olympic athletes and such. You always see them with the flag draped over their shoulders.

Yes there is.

[Olly]

The flag should not be used as "wearing apparel, bedding, or drapery", or for covering a speaker's desk, draping a platform, or for any decoration in general (exception for coffins). Bunting of blue, white and red stripes is available for these purposes. The blue stripe of the bunting should be on the top.[6]

Thanks for the info.

So a flag printed on a shirt is ok. Correct?

[Olly]

No clue. Probably since it's very common.

I would say it's against the flag code. that said, I'd wear it if it was something like this situation.

[rebelp74]

If they don't like it here and love their flag so much then they need to go back

[rebelp74]

Also that ruling is treason. To against our country in favor of another is treason no matter how you look at it.

Yes. Because it's not "the flag". It's a shirt with a picture of a flag on it.

That's what I thought.

The news TRIES to piss ppl off Rex. Their hoping you'll run over, get your check book, and DO SOMETHING about whatever they just PISSED you off about.
Its what they do and they do it well.

You really are a special kid. Getting PISSED at the news and throwing shit at the tv...then Bitching online is something US old fuckers do. Not 16 yr old kids.

[aunt betty]

My phone is sick and keeps putting all caps on some words, sorry

Betty, I don't got as far as throwing shit at the TV but I get your point.

Yep, the flag itself cannot, or should not, be used as clothing. A representative of the standard can be worn, such as patches, embroideries, or symbols. Otherwise no uniform could display the flag.

This explains at least part of it.........The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals is and has always been one of the most liberal in the nation.
