unservicable flags?


That's borderline cult extreme facism. Just insane.


You used your flag? Don't have any space and don't want it anymore? Not worth anything?


Fucking bin it you squares.
'Unservicable' doesn't mean 'don't want anymore'.  It means its ripped up, weathered, faded, etc... to extreme levels and cannot be fixed.  And I don't see what's wrong with the policy on it:

The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning
So destroy it.  Or don't.  Only people who care are going to follow these directions anyway, and they probably would destroy it in a dignified way regardless.
I'm not too learned in flag etiquette, so you'll have to school me with this query. Isn't burning flags what pissed off Muslims do when they don't like the occupying country, be it America, Britain or whoever?


If only they knew they were secretely giving the flag a dignified death! Those scoundrels.
Don't be a daft cunt, Mr. Jordan.

Intent.  Are they doing it with dignity in mind?  No.  Besides, it's a political statement and they have a right to do that.  If I really wanted, I could buy some Pakistani/Iranian/Saudi/MuslimNation flags and set them ablaze.  But I just don't care enough.

Well sir, whilst I don't agree with what you're saying I'll defend to the death your flag.

Right, well I can see you're (as usual) being as suborn as a mule (see your "Dst" thread), so there's no point in even trying to debate or discuss civilly with you.

Not really since no "Euro" here, of which I hardly consider myself is at the far extreme of flags rights and etiquette.

It's called pride.  A concept seemingly too intangible for chav eurotrash to conprehend.  Irishpride?  Ironic fail.
Yeah good for him, but fuck off with your generalisation.
Fuck off at your lack of reading comprehension.

Who'd thought a "hero's" story could stir such anger and continental verbal warfare.

A link to an Australian government website when you're waging all out war on Eurotrash isn't the best tactic you've ever employed.

11B you can cite as many links you want about any other countries disposal of flags but the fact is your nation is the only one I know who considers someone a hero when they fold up a flag in the rain, ahaha.

Well let's see how you dispose of an UK flag...

http://www.britishflag.us/united-kingdo … quette.htm

Proper Disposal

The flag should never be flown when tattered or soiled, it is a sign of disrespect. Flags do wear our and must be replaced, when disposing of an old flag it is ideal to privately burn it in a respectful manner. You may also tear the flag or cut it into strips until it no longer resembles the flag.


That just funny

The point is that's not the norm. It isn't observed. It's like one of those old laws that still technically exists but is never used and makes no sense, like how a Police constable has to offer his hat to a pregnant woman if she needs to take a piss. It just doesn't happen, and what's more you want find 5 Brits rushing to the defence of their flag and getting into every argument about it.

I would never consider burning my flag, I don't have the time or inclination and I'm an unemployed pyromaniac.

same here..its not the norm.  so again, you make no sense.


I happen to think the idea of tea time being totally retarded and gay and full of aids.
It fucking is the norm because this isn't the only thread allt he Americans have got pissy because of their flag. If it aint the norm, if you wouldn't dispose of it correctly then don't defend people that do. Don't play devils advacote, just express your own points and defend them, then dst might be half decent again with people debating their own points with some civility.

Oh and tea time? As in time set aside to drink tea or what Northern English would call "dinner time"? I'm confused, either way shit attempt try again.
I've never heard of people burning an american flag except in the middle east.
