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?

See if your neighborhood has a flag for it, or fly your city’s flag. It’s patriotic enough to placate the neighbor but also signals local solidarity. Obviously the pirate flag is choice. But real talk, maybe you should fly that pride flag. Show some solidarity and stick it to the haters. You have ever right to and it’s showing that supporting these causes are normal and good. If everyone who cared didn’t show a flag, then people will think it’s just trump country. I personally do a rainbow American flag from June to July so I can keep it up both months.
