Disrespecting the American FLAG

This week the teacher at Alphabe Thursday has assigned us the letter "F." I new at once what I wanted to post. I snapped this picture of the American FLAG being used as a boat cover on a recent trip to my doctor.
Does anyone else have the same problem with this picture as I do?



I am linking this post to Alphabe Thursday.

  1. Oh! I guess they thought it was cool or something... but it certainly is a shame to do that to the flag. Definitely disrespectful!

  2. In the era I grew up in we didn't use a flag for things like this.

  3. Oh hopefully they didnt mean anyone disrespect, but surely they should have used another boat cover.

  8. This makes me mad. At first I wondered if they might just be trying to display it since it's so big. What a horrible thing to do.

    I grew up as a military brat and this just makes me shudder.

    I say you should go steal it and hang it up somewhere proudly. But, yeah, I guess stealing a flag is pretty bad, too.

    Call the VFW. Maybe they can send a posse over.

    Thanks for a thoughtful link.

    I feel like everyone else who has commented this week.

    A+

Thank you for stopping by my site. Without your visits there would be no incentive to continue posting. So, having you here and reading your comments is the highlight of my day.

I regret that time does not always allow me to return visits to everyone who stops by, but, I will certainly do my best to get to everyone. I will definitely answer any questions you leave me.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.
