Flag
How does it make you feel when you see the American flag used as clothing or in clothing design? Is it disrespectful to the flag or the country?

If the level of insensitivity in this country doesn't stop getting out of hand, I'm going to puke. Everytime we turn around, someone is offended by something.

A flag is offensive.

A religious group offends another.

A re-enactment of a historical event pushing another agenda is offensive.

Wearing the American flag is offensive.

When will the insanity stop? It's a shirt, pair of pants, a ball cap or shoes. It's not like the US flag is being worn as a cape by someone looking like the bizarre lovechild of Richard Simmons and Captain America.

This country needs to get back to what's really important. With an election around the corner, knowing the real issues will be the difference in swearing in a President who will get things done or end up with a buffoon that just wants to give us lip service.

Sometimes when I get into a patriotic grey area I just play the National Anthem while grabbing my AR and Colt 1911 in each hand, put on my ACU bottoms w/ Dress Blue top (With full Medals) take a shot of Jack, and I watch the National Geographic documentary on "Eagles"! Never failed me yet! Oh... 'Merica!

First and for most that outfit is beyond tacky. I would rather be runner over by garbage truck and drown in my own blood than be seen looking that. There is patriotism, and there is just tasteless. Of course what do I know, some designer got a bazillion dollars for making that.

As for offending me, if it is in good taste and modest, no harm no foul. If it looks like some one wrapped themselves up in a flag to go running on the fourth of July yeah it is kind of offensive to me.
