Only a country like America would have pathetic rules for what should be done with a flag. I find it stupid that you are not allowed to dispose of a US flag by throwing it in the rubbish bin, nor are you, yourself allowed to burn it. It has to be taken somewhere official, where it will get burned in a dignified way.

'This is a huge violation of flag protocol'. Comments like that are what makes America the laughing stock of the whole world, except that Americans don't realise that since most of them never actually travel more than 100 miles from their home throughout their whole life, and the American media doesnt seem to report what is actually happening outside of the US.
