Is this a statement in 2020’s super politically charged time?

A friend said I may as well have hung up a Trump banner. I thought it was ridiculous.

At either rate the neighbors will have something to chat about. God Bless America. We Shall Overcome.

I don't really understand why you're telling us unless you're in fact, looking for a reaction.

So, here you go:

No

But it’s a statement to the “I matter, look at me” culture of this time where you think this is worth a thread

Honestly, who gives a shite what you hang on your house?

Put one an American flag our porch two weeks ago. For July 4th, I'll have the Gadsden flag.

No. but it's not politically correct to be a patriot in today's world.

It's becoming clear to some of us that we aren't facing a Democrat v Republican spat this year. This is more of how we all put this marxist uprising back into the sewer where it belongs.

I wanted to put a statue of Thomas Jefferson, George Washington and John Adams in my front yard but the wife said no! I have had a flag flying in front of my home every day for the past 20+ years. The Stars and Strips has a honored place in my home.

Your friend seems like the problem facing you more so than society.

Well, it is in the sense you are apparently wanting to be seen.

Most HOA's don't allow flags (or any banners) to be hung from the structure as it is unsightly. A few do allow flag poles and that'd be more tasteful.

I, personnally, dont see anything wrong with it but, TBH, a certain mindset seems to love gloating about it.

either way, you do you

That is fair. But maybe I just wanted an American Flag on the front of my new home?

I hadn’t realized the day before I put it up Trump had proposed jail time for people burning the flag. So I think my friend was speaking to the timing of me hanging it.
