    Why do you have a flag code? It was under the normal flag so why should it matter.

    To the veterans it is important. Even if you think caring for is flag is stupid have they earned the right to have a say over something you don't even care about?

    A lot of them were drafted. They didn't earn it, they were pushed into it.

    And those who volunteered? They did a job. They have just as much right/no right to be angry about it as anyone else...

    Is it the new official flag of the United States? If it is not then I do not see the problem.

    They killed people who were promoting terror and violence. The American Armed Forces fight horrid enemies.

    Edit:And Chelsea I wasn't referring to this flag, but I think they have a bit of a point for the sole fact that the flag is in public. I can't hoist a "God Hates Fags" flag up in town because its offensive.

    Being so patriotic/nationalistic as to get upset over some flags being changed but not made the official flag is not a good thing. It is rather bad. I did not watch the vid btw.

    The vets in the video don't want it because they have to look at it everyday. They find it offensive. To them its like flying a "God Hates Fags" banner around a Gay Community.

    The United States occasionally fights enemies who promote Terror and violence. Most of the time it's people fighting to defend there home/way of life.

    they can still do it it's their right to fly the flag if they want to. I also guess it's diffrent here since veterans form WWII and the Korean War fought under a different flag than we do now so it really doesn't matter as much here.

    It violates flag code so according to the law no they can't. The woman says so herself.
