Reminder that executive orders are not laws

These are not EOs they are decrees by a wannabe king. If he does this I will burn so many US flags after using them to wipe my ass.

The trick is getting the flags without buying them. Theres a donation box nearby where people deposit old flags for disposal, I like to check that.

Haven't gotten brave enough to just go snatching...

Trump to sign executive order declaring McDonald's breakfast to be served all day.

So this is going to go after everyone wearing a flag as/on clothing, right? Or have tattered flags flying on the back of their truck? Or leave a flag up in the rain? Or add extra lines to the flag? Or use it for marketing?

My favorite thing is pointing out that the Thin Blue Line flags are a desecration and violate the flag code. Like, I support your right to free speech, so if you want to desecrate the flag, you have that right. But it is exactly the same as burning a flag, it's just a different message. You can argue with the message, but you can't criticize the methods while doing the same.

Or, if you wanna make a statement burn the other version rather than the current one.
