i work on an army post. sometimes i am there when the flag goes up in the morning, or coming down at night. you would not believe the number of active duty folks you see running to their vehicles, or into the building just to not salute the flag. i have been retired for over 3 years now, and i will still stop and salute it, and have no intention to quit either.[/quote]
I am stunned by this statement. I am not military but geez, isn't that part of the job description???? just sayin......

Being british I don't display your flag, however that is the thing I admire about the majority of US citizens, you are patriotic, something I don't see displayed very much back in the UK. There is too much PC back home about offending the immigrants by flying our flag, my take is, if you don't like it F*** Off home!
I will be adding a patch to my Jacket that says 'Proud British Biker', just to let you know I'm a brit visiting your shores, I'm sure that you guys won't be offended

No sir not a troll at all. His post was fine up until the line about posting the Confederate flag only when the house next door is for rent. You tell me what that means. I have no problem with the confederate flag or the CSA at all but what other conclusion can you come to by his post?

I guess you've never had up to 10 illegal males with 4 or 5 cargo vans, corona bottles all over the yard, loud spanish music at 2am, knee high grass and two very annoying chouuwha's running around loose chaseing your kids. Good for you! I now have a retired military couple living next door who take care of the place, who weren't "offended" by that confederate flag. BTW I'm a Yankee
Again I am sorry if I offended you in any way... Peace Brother.

I don't wear one only because I dont wear patches or put decals on my helmet or ride. I also don't think that half the people I see flying the flag really give two ***** about what it means. My patriotism is something I hold close to my heart and I don't need stick everything I own with it.
I spent 10 years in the Army and did a tour in the desert, I served side by side with Americans of all races and religons. I would say anyone of my brother soldiers were more patriotic and loved their country more than a moron who would fly a Confederate flag only to keep people of a different race from living near him.

American flag on all your stuff? Why?
Just joking to get the blood flowing. Navy vet. One in the front yard 30 feet up with an occasional Navy Seal flag in honor of my buddy who is on his 29th year in the Navy and a Senior Master Chief Seal. Flags at my government work office hanging on the door and here and there. Waiting for someone to say something.

Agreed. If I went to Mexico (or any other country for that matter) I would not flaunt the US flag nor would I be offended to see that countries flag displayed everywhere I went. But when they come to MY country they better not have a problem with me displaying MY flag anywhere I please! This is America. The flag you see flying the most, and flown the proudest, should be the American flag. It does not matter how you feel about the current administration. I fly my flag for my country, not for who happens to be running it at the time.
Amen Brother! I fly the American flag on my bike,in my front yard,on my vest and work uniforms. And as far as I'm concerned anyone who doesn't like it can kiss my American A--!
