You want to protest? Fine. But don’t touch the flag.

    Kinda wonder about the whole “don’t touch the flag” bullshit when I see women wearing flag bikinis, men wearing flag swimming trunks, and both garments are touching assholes.

      You can get flag napkins. You can get flag diapers.

      It’s fucking moronic. Flags exist mainly so that armies could rally and ships could recognize each other at sea back before we had this handy thing called radio. Now it’s just for bullshit fake patriotism.

        I think diapers are the only acceptable use for certain flags. Thin blue line flags, confederate battle flag, and plain white (the final confederate flag) in particular.
