(16,394 posts)This is the kind of information I've been wanting. I just wished the article would have included a picture of exactly what they look like.
I've done some more googling, and I'm still confused about what they look like, because I've found so many variations. I've found everything from flags that are so dark you can barely see the stars and stripes, while others are black and white or black and gray (with black where the blue and red would normally be). Do these all have the same meaning/significance?
NOTE: I am not trying to mock anyone or sound disbelieving. I just want to be able to understand EXACTLY what people mean by the term "black flag." I have never seen any of these flags anywhere but the internet myself, but I have absolutely NO doubt that they exist and are scary.
EDITED TO ADD Thanks to other posts down thread, my questions been all been answered
