Just walked my dog and I noticed that not only are all the flags gone but so are the flag poles

[NNN0LHI]

What gives? Man these things were popping up like weeds around here a few years back. It was like everyone had one. Is this the death of jingoism?

1. We can hope.....

Being a symbol, the flag can often be used and abused.

2. nope, the rw needs them

for Heston's funeral

[amihol]

3. Abuse?

Some fools abuse our flag by using it while they do not deserve to touch it.That's why it is "rare" nowadays...however we have it on OUR pole !

[NNN0LHI]

4. they do not deserve to touch it ... WTF?

We are talking about a made in China piece of dyed fabric here not the Ark of the Covenant for chrissake.

8. The flag is the symbol not the substance of our people

ALL our people, not just the right-wing, no matter how they love to clothe themselves in it.

5. That's REALLY bizarre. Do you live downtown in a city or in the 'burbs?

Were these flagpoles missing from businesses, a school, the P.O., or what??

6. Rural small town and they used to be in peoples front yards with lighting and everything

Some were professionally installed creations. Now poof they are gone like they were never there.
