These sewer dwellers have desecrated our flag.

In the end I am sure I will fly mine, if nothing else for consistency. I guess I am becoming an old creaker, I don't like change.

If nothing else it can be flown in memorial of those that saved us from the Nazis in WWII. Of course those soldiers never dreamed that the real threat to our freedom would one day come from inside our very own country.
