We moved here around 8 or 9 years ago and took down the tattered flag in the flag holder then. We figured it was about time we replaced it.

    Exactly. It doesn’t.

    Just figured I’d ask regardless, as I was criticized for putting my late father’s flag on the ground, even though it was still sealed in the plastic.

    🤷‍♂️

      I wouldn’t be concerned about criticism from petty nationalists. It’s entirely pointless and unhealthy for your attention span.

        Exactly. The flag code in particular is a piece of weird fetishistic civic religion, and the principles supposedly underlying it are more honored in the breach than the observance. Maybe if you’re actively employed by the US Government you should follow it, but otherwise it’s just a boogeyman bit of thoughtless orthopraxy.
