So it’s demeaning to wear a t shirt with a flag printed on it? I guess it’s disrespectful in your mind to have a flag patch sewn onto one’s uniform as well?[/quote]

I don’t think that it’s in good taste to wear American flags printed on clothing.

A patch on a soldier’s uniform is to identify the soldier as American in case he’s wounded or captured.

I think that clothing printed with an American flag covering a beer belly or a fat ass is disgusting looking. That doesn’t show proper decorum and respect for the American flag, in my opinion.[/quote]

Oh, so you give a shit about the flag when someone is wearing it? What about when someone is burning it?

And it’s true that beer companies have done their best to turn Cinco de Mayo into yet another alcoholiday, but we’ve already done the same to our own patriotic holidays. :)[/quote]

Here in the US… it’s all about the booze.

Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

I’ll drink to that too. lol

Actually, you could say the same thing about the chocolate industry (Valentines, Easter, Mothers Day, Halloween, Christmas), the flower industry (Valentines, Easter, Mothers Day, Memorial Day, Christmas), and the greeting card industry (every friggin’ holiday!).
