First, I apologize for not articulating my thought process clearly enough. Its not that I don't want you to express your opinion, its just how you approach it. I take offense to any desecration of the flag, especially since I have 3 siblings fighting in the armed forces under that flag. Flying the flag upside down as a political statement fits in that category. You're flying the flag out in the front of your thoughts, giving anyone that sees it an opportunity to form an opinion of you before you start typing. I'm just saying you'd probably be doing yourself a favor by changing your avatar, along with avoiding the conflict of insulting people.
