I had a teacher in elementary school that taught us that when a flag falls on the floor, you’re supposed to kiss it.
Yes, seriously.
It was just part of the normal flag-worship we were ~~taught~~ brainwashed with.
I was taught that if a flag falls on the floor you are supposed to burn it.
That is "flag law" but you also aren't allowed to display the flag on a T-shirts, in any disrespectful manner, or a fuckin pick up truck and yet. here we are...
Let's not even get into flag shorts and bikinis.
Hey! There's nothing more patriotic than making people horny for America
