So, I bought a house that just happens to have a flagpole. It was put in by the neighbor’s grandfather back when he owned the property like 60 years ago. I recently dug it up and painted it, replaced the hardware, etc. I’ve been flying the US flag to keep same Republican neighbor happy, but after this weekend’s events, that’s not happening any more. So, I’ve been pondering what flag to fly instead. It doesn’t appear that my town has a flag, though my county and state do. I considered the United Federation of Planets flag, but it looks too much like the UN flag and I don’t need to hear John Birch from that same neighbor. Ditto the Earth flag. Maybe the Jolly Roger? Anybody else have a fun flag they think I should fly instead?

Might make more of a statement to simply remove the US flag and have nothing there. Replacing it with something else makes it look like you’ve chosen a cause in preference to the USA. Removing it simply says that you are no longer showing support for the US, with no other message. Also less likely to make you a target.
