14. No. Flag desecration is a crime, "crime" requires informed intent, and that's just fucking retarded.
Unless she's planning to jump Snake River Canyon
on a rocket-cycle, of course. That's the one exception.

Oh boy, you don't suppose she is, do ya? :rofl:

What outfit could she wear to complement the burgeoning belligerent bellicose know-it-all look?

36. It's real.
And I just spent way too much time searching Google images trying to find it again. Couldn't turn it up but it was an AP photo I believe taken at a military award ceremony for the woman in the photo and Papa is showing off to her sons. I was definitely within the last 3 or 4 years.

33. Who the Hell thought this was a good idea?
From the designer to the retailer to the sucker who bought it. A disgusting chain of BAD TASTE.

On the other hand, I'm reminded of P.T. Barnum.

35. In a word:
Yes.

# The flag should never be used for advertising purposes in any manner whatsoever. It should not be embroidered on such articles as cushions or handkerchiefs and the like, printed or otherwise impressed on paper napkins or boxes or anything that is designed for temporary use and discard. Advertising signs should not be fastened to a staff or halyard from which the flag is flown.
# No part of the flag should ever be used as a costume or athletic uniform. However, a flag patch may be affixed to the uniform of military personnel, firemen, policemen, and members of patriotic organizations. The flag represents a living country and is itself considered a living thing. Therefore, the lapel flag pin being a replica, should be worn on the left lapel near the heart.
