I think those are the reasons I choose not to fly an American flag. It may sound horrible to some but when we are not constantly in turmoil or embroiled with such, I may reconsider.

I wrote you back, but somehow it got lost! We don’t fly the flag either. I have gotten suspicious of people that feel the need to wave the flag constantly to show how super patriotic they are.

I don't fly the American flag anymore either. I did while my son was active duty military, but not anymore. I took my last flag down because it was worn out, sort of like I feel about the current state of politics. It just felt too sad to replace the old flag.

Now my HOA has dropped its flag amendment, curtailing political flags and signage. Now anyone can put out political garbage. Our development has sections with small houses on tiny lots. People can now express their polar opposite opinions 20 feet apart. Jeez!
