Mix, plenty have it year round, but there are rules of how and when it should be up on poles, such as a bleached/ripped flag should be burnt heh

I am definitely proud to be an American. It's good to be number 1 in more than one field. The only downside is that when you're on top, all the underdogs will criticize and nitpick at your every word and action. More times than not, I'm glad that Ho Chi Minh invaded my native land of Vietnam. If it weren't for his invasion, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to be born and raised in the US.

Dutch are well known for their lack of pattriotism, but that doesn't mean that we aren't. Watch a soccer match and we are pattriotic alright. But many of us think it is not sound to take this misplaced pride into a conversation. It is nice when you are fond of your home country but using this as the basis on which you do your international work is unwise.....

As a semi-sane sci-fi fanatic, I'm proud to be human. Countries are just regional subdivisions. Of course, I prefer the ideals of America to that of, say, Iran. But Western Europe and America are pretty much on equal ground in my opinion.

Over the past 5 or so tears I have noticed a lot more Aussie flags flying in front yards. Unusual for us, as like Kiwis we tend to bare our patriotism opposite to how yanks do. But then on the sporting field............................ |
