Comment on Why are people talking about flying a flag upside-down?
FireTower@lemmy.world 7 months agoFlag code in the US has no teeth. Flag burning is legal per Texas v. Johnson. Symbolizing a stance of the nation being in distressed is definitely protected speech. Impropriety is a stretch for a statement on his private property that amounts to “our country is in turmoil”.

Flag code in the US is just recommendations for citizens. I think it is only “enforced” for military personnel.
