how about the running your yap during the folding of the flag? did they allow such stuff when you were pulling down colors in the Corp? They didn't allow it in the Navy, you folded the flag with your damned mouth shut!

how about folding it to fit it in the tube? my flag sits in a perfect triangle in a shadow box.. it's not folded again and again so I can cram it into a coffee cup..

I just don't find the whole thing appropriate.. you may have a different opinion, but again, thsi is my opinion, and I believeI'm entitled to it.. (that's the point I'm trying to make)

remember, my first post, other then the flag (not) getting burned I had other issues dude...

and I personally think that honoring the flag when the Anthem is played is something that isn't taught anymore... I bet Ponch (not picking on you man) or Traxxas Junkee wasn't taught that in school.. hell, not many people even know of the proper way to dispose of it when the time comes.
