So, I bought a house that just happens to have a flagpole. It was put in by the neighbor’s grandfather back when he owned the property like 60 years ago. I recently dug it up and painted it, replaced the hardware, etc. I’ve been flying the US flag to keep same Republican neighbor happy, but after this weekend’s events, that’s not happening any more.

So, I’ve been pondering what flag to fly instead. It doesn’t appear that my town has a flag, though my county and state do. I considered the United Federation of Planets flag, but it looks too much like the UN flag and I don’t need to hear John Birch from that same neighbor. Ditto the Earth flag.

Maybe the Jolly Roger? Anybody else have a fun flag they think I should fly instead?

    I don’t have a flagpole. I want to put one in, but my wife objects.

    The reason she objects is because she thinks it will make us a target.

    I want to fly a pride flag under the American flag. The point being that the American flag stands for all Americans, not just the Americans who agree with the current regime.

    I’d probably change the lower flag from time to time, depending on events, time of year, or my mood.
