I'm posting this now before I head out for a ride on this beautiful day (at least, weather-wise).
This morning I actually remembered to put out flags along our front fence as I occasionally do on appropriate holidays. A little while ago, my daughter came home asked why I did, as we all agree in this house that our country is almost a source of embarrassment now. I made the argument that I could be ashamed of where we are now, but still be proud of what was done in 1776.
But it made me think. Could my displayed flags be interpreted as an endorsement of the sh!t that's being done to his country now? If I could find some, I'd consider alternating the American flags with a "No Kings" flag. Or maybe a big No Kings flag in front of the fence. Am I missing an opportunity?
Are any other members here displaying flags this Independence Day?
