This is neat.

Does CR have rules about flag desecration? If so, if you cut a perimeter and just make it a smaller flag is this exempt?

Seems you can get fined for blatantly decreasing it. But I don't think that resizing it per se would fall under that

Wait. Did you really mean "decreasing" rather than "desecrating"? Because that's hilarious.

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 month ago

Haha whoops! Imagine if lowering a flag was illegal and you could only make it go even higher

The erotical love of the local flag is a US only thing, noone cares about that anywhere elso on the planet. Do whatever you want with that cloth.

"Desecrecation" what a word.

I just googled and couldn't find a single instance of that law being used in practice when it comes to flags. Nobody cares.

"Actually" Czech flag should be destroyed if it touches the ground. Also while in CZ there are rules on what should be the order of flags, if it is flying with other flags.

There are more rules, but the main point is ... Noone really cares.

There are rules of course, but unlike the US nobody here gives a crap about them.
